What the f… Microsoft?
Warning, this is one of those rant posts of mine. Rude language ahead… I know that Microsoft sucks since that fucker Nadella took over and completely screwed over their mobile eco-system. Not only cancelling Windows Phone and pissing on their fans but Surface is now completely useless as a tablet as well which means that Nadella made an Android user out of me, a former … Continue reading What the f… Microsoft?
Nuclear Deterrent – Rubbish!
Well, I guess one could say that my expectations were fulfilled. This is a rubbish book. Continue reading Nuclear Deterrent – Rubbish!
Here we go again…
Again(!) I fell behind with my reviews and as usual when I fall behind with my reviews I tend to forget details so it is difficult for me to go back and do a proper review of books I’ve read. So it is time for another one of my (in)famous catch-ups to clear out the back-log. Continue reading Here we go again…
Valkyrie’s Daughter – Another good one.
This was another good one in the series. Continue reading Valkyrie’s Daughter – Another good one.
Fused – One of the better books in the series.
This was definitely one of the better books in the series. Plenty of action, some threads finally reached their conclusion and of course the usual snark and banter. Continue reading Fused – One of the better books in the series.
Fog of War – Good military sci-fi.
Overall I enjoyed the book. It is maybe not a strong four star book but a four star one nonetheless. Continue reading Fog of War – Good military sci-fi.
Bullets and Beads – Another good injection of humorous crime mystery into my reading pipeline.
Another mystery for Fortune and the geriatric maffia to solve and as usual it is done with the usual mix of detective work and hilarious misfortunes, usually caused by Gertie whether she has her exploding handbag or not. Continue reading Bullets and Beads – Another good injection of humorous crime mystery into my reading pipeline.
Witch With a Cause – Meh again.
This book is the same and maybe even more of a mess of multiple threads, rubbish computer hacking and general soap opera style story as the previous one. Continue reading Witch With a Cause – Meh again.
Starship’s Mage books 8 to 13 – I really like this series.

Enlightened Ignorance – Another good one.

Potentia: Bonds Forged – Decent instalment in the series.
This is a quite decent instalment in the series. Not more than three out of five stars but that still makes it an enjoyable book. Continue reading Potentia: Bonds Forged – Decent instalment in the series.
This author should stick to writing urban fantasy.
The story is a TV-show style, and a poor one at that, illogical mess of unlikely events and twists. Continue reading This author should stick to writing urban fantasy.
Dark Star Deceit – Nope, dumping this series now.
This series had some promise. I liked the core idea for the story. Unfortunately it never rose above mediocre and now it is really going downhill. Continue reading Dark Star Deceit – Nope, dumping this series now.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever – Better than I feared it would be.
Overall it was a pretty decent movie actually. Lot and lots of special effects and action of course and, as with Black Adams that I just reviewed, that is the main reason to watch this movie. Continue reading Black Panther: Wakanda Forever – Better than I feared it would be.
Black Adam – Quite good Superhero movie.
Overall it is a decent story without too many ludicrous elements in it. It works pretty well from start to finish. Continue reading Black Adam – Quite good Superhero movie.

Big Easy Bounty Hunter books 1-3: Run-of-the-mill urban fantasy but fun light reading.
Overall though, despite some black spots, I had quit some fun reading these three books. They have a good enough story, plenty of action, likable characters and, most of all, some really entertaining interactions and dialog. Continue reading Big Easy Bounty Hunter books 1-3: Run-of-the-mill urban fantasy but fun light reading.
Witch With a Choice – Meh.
If it wasn’t for Cait herself and, especially, her cheeky dragon I might have dropped this series. Continue reading Witch With a Choice – Meh.
Into the Storm – Good book from a Great author.
Bottom line is that this is a very good book though. For those more into the fantasy and steampunk genres than me when it comes to books it is probably a great book. Continue reading Into the Storm – Good book from a Great author.
The Lone World – Discovery, mystery and military sci-fi fusion.
It is a good book. As always Christopher Nuttall produces quality writing. Continue reading The Lone World – Discovery, mystery and military sci-fi fusion.
Magicae: Power Dawning – Still fledgling to get on track.
Although I did enjoy reading this second installment in the Chronicles of an Urban Elemental series it has not yet found its groove as far as I am concerned. Continue reading Magicae: Power Dawning – Still fledgling to get on track.
