Episode 2-02: 1/16th Choctaw

Ex-Communication by Peter Clines

Verses for the Dead by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child

January 18, 2019 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2019/01/19/episode-2-02-1-6th-choctaw/ Wherein I read: 4. Ex-Communication (Ex-Heroes #3) by Peter Clines 5. Verses for the Dead (Agent Pendergast #18) by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child As I type this sentence, I wonder why Peter Clines amazing superheroes battling zombies series hasn’t already been optioned and turned into your favorite series yet. As I type THIS sentence, I wonder if Preston & Child got notes from some marketing douche and wrote this book like “Is this what you wanted, you f**kface?”

The Farm by Tob Rob Smith

A Delicate Touch (Stone Barrington #48) by Stuart Woods

January 9, 2019 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2019/01/10/episode-2-01-tell-me-lies-tell-me-sweet-little-lies/ CANNONBALL 11 HAS BEGUNNETHED. Wherein I review: 1. Ex-Patriots (Ex-Heroes #2) by Peter Clines 2. The Farm by Tom Rob Smith 3. A Delicate Touch (Stone Barrington #48) by Stuart Woods More delicious zombies vs. superheroes where we finally meet up with the military.  And they wisely utilize Arkham Asylumishness.  A son must decide whether his mother is being gaslit by his father or if her entire tale is a lie.  Stuart Woods keeps being all Stuart Woodsy.

Episode 1-49: I Feel It Coming, Babe

December 27, 2018 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2018/12/28/episode-1-49-i-feel-it-coming-babe/ Wherein I review: 186 – The Woman in the Window by A.J. Finn I guess psychologist is the new author in the dark thriller.  This was pretty much Drunk Rear Window, and I saw the twists, but it wasn’t bad.  And as we creep towards the finish, I ponder whether or not to keep doing the podcast or hang up my spurs.  And disappoint my twelves and twelves of fans.

Episode 1-48: Even Time-Traveling Nazis Aren’t Worse Than Trump

December 25, 2018 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2018/12/26/episode-1-48-even-time-traveling-nazis-arent-worse-than-trump/ Wherein I review: 183. Bill, the Galactic Hero On the Planet of Ten Thousand Bars (Bill, the Galactic Hero #6) by Harry Harrison 184. Deep Silence (Joe Ledger #10) by Jonathan Maberry 185. The Final Incoherent Adventure (Bill, the Galactic Hero #7) by Harry Harrison As Bill the Galactic Hero peters out (dick pun intended) so do I.  But first, I must high-five a billion times Jonathan Maberry for making Trump a useless tool in his Joe Ledger books.  A bunch of fedoras cried […]

December 19, 2018 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2018/12/19/episode-1-47-the-castle-rock-diet-plan/ Wherein I review: 179. Gwendy’s Button Box by Stephen King 180. Bill, the Galactic Hero On The Planet of Tasteless Pleasure (Bill the Galactic Hero #4) by Harry Harrison 181. The Mortal Word (Invisible Library #5) by Genevieve Cogman 182. Bill, the Galactic Hero On The Planet of Zombie Vampires (Bill the Galactic Hero #5) by Harry Harrison Stephen King’s novellas set in Castle Rock seem to all involve strange weight loss.  Two more Bill the Galactic Heroes – for you to refine your […]

Episode 1-46: If Someone Calls You Fat, Eat Them

December 17, 2018 by prisco Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2018/12/18/episode-1-46-if-someone-calls-you-fat-eat-them/ Wherein I review: 145. Private Princess (Private #14) by James Patterson 146. Bill the Galactic Hero On The Planet of Bottled Brains (Bill the Galactic Hero #3) by Harry Harrison 147. Elevation by Stephen King 148. The Surgeon’s Mate (Aubrey & Maturin #7) by Patrick O’Brian London Private is my least favorite of the private parts.  Bill the Galactic Hero keeps punning horribly like an issue of Cracked before they became actual internet journalists.  Stephen King keeps on busting out Castle Rock novellas, and […]
