Battle of the Wilds – Another good one.
This is my kind of space opera. Huge space battles. Well written and plausible science, heroes, competent military commanders, well done characters etc. etc…
Welcome to my personal hobby blog where I ramble about books, movies, computers, gadgets and anything else that I felt like rambling about.
Please note that this is just a hobby for me and these are my personal opinions about various subjects. I do not aspire to be a professional reviewer so if you do not like my opinions that’s too bad but there are surely other blogs out there for you in that case.
And below you find the latest ramblings in chronological order…

-
Moon Matador – I whish the author would tone it down a bit.
This started of as a nice little ghost mystery for Samantha to solve. Read more
-
Technomancer books 1 to 3 – Not quite rubbish but not very good either.
Unfortunately there’s not a shred of science in these books. It is science fantasy at best. Star Wars appears like hardcore sci-fi compared to this. Read more
-
Vampire Deep – Decent urban fantasy P.I. story.
Overall this series has been a fairly reliable urban fantasy P.I. story. Socker mom Samantha Moon goes about her socker mom business while also running her P.I. business solving cases with a supernatural twist. Read more
-
Implacable Resolve – Better than the previous one.
This books is back to what has been the norm for most of the books in this series after a bit of a dip with the previous book. That is around four out of five stars. Read more
-
Order of Scion Book 1 & 2 – Interesting story.
This is one of those books where I really felt I had to read more than the first book in the series before reviewing it. The first book did a lot of setting up but it kind of ended just when we got to the real story. Read more
-
Undercity – Okay book.
This was a okay book. It had a fair amount of things that I liked and a few that I did not like as much. Read more
-
Legacy of Empire – Good, fun space adventure.
It is a good, fun space adventure. The type of simple but enjoyable story that could work nicely as a TV-show script. Read more
-
Elemental – Surprisingly good for being a Disney movie these days.
Overall it was movie that me as well as my (now adult) kids enjoyed. Read more
-
To Challenge Heaven – Great military space opera.
This books has a nice mix of everything including plenty of action and alien take downs, good characters, technological advancements and a few twists. Read more
-
The Worst Detectives in the Federation – Fun read.
It is a fun book to read though. Light reading with likable main characters and a pleasant mix of adventure, thriller, quite a lot of humour and action. Read more
-
Lost – A good story ruined by woke rubbish.
This is a perfect example of a writer that can actually write good books but totally ruins them by pushing woke bullshit down the readers throat. Read more
-
The Vampire and the Case of the Wayward Werewolf – Quite good urban fantasy.
Bottom line though, I quite liked the book and I am quite eager to see how Bunny and the story develops. It might not be the strongest four star book I’ve read but still, a four star it is. Read more
-
Book roundup.
Round up of books for which I, for various reasons, decided I did not want to make the effort of writing full reviews. Read more
-
Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1 – Not a masterpiece but pretty okay.
Overall this is a fairly entertaining movie. It has a reasonably cool, totally unrealistic of course, but cool story. It has plenty of special effects, lots of action, some mild suspense and a bit, sometimes too much, humor. Read more
-
Dune Part 2 – Occasionally Hollywood makes good movies.
Overall one of the better movies in quite a while though. Even if it sometimes felt some parts were too dragged out and some too compressed, or even removed, I never felt bored. Read more
-
Moon World – Not one of the better books in the series.
I have generally liked the books in this series. Unfortunately, this book breaks that pattern. Read more
-
Long Past Dues – Not really my cup of tea.
This was not really my cup of tea. Actually it was a bit of a disappointment given that the first book in the series was a four star one. Read more
-
Phule’s Company – Different and quite entertaining read.
Well, this was a bit of a different reading from my usual selection of books. It was a mix of fun and weird. Read more
-
Hexes in Texas – Not the best in the series but okay reading.
This book was certainly not the best in the series but still a good enough read. Read more
-
Freedom’s Last Gasp – That was quite a disappointment.
This was was quite a disappointment. When I read the first book in the series I thought it was very good. Like four out of five stars good. This one is a completely different beast from the first one. Read more
-
Bermuda Triangle Blues – Pretty average urban fantasy.
Well, this was a pretty average urban fantasy book. It has the usual blend of snarky dialogue, magic action and a story that tries to have too much shit going on at the same time. Read more
