Inara gets these faraway looks -- don't know what t means, but I know not to ask. Still got the Tams on board, and Jayne hasn't tried to sell 'em out since we got those medical supplies on Osiris, so that's a plus. Shepherd's sill reading his book of fairytales. Zoë's still my first officer, and I w...
As always with a set of stories this is a mixed bag, but there's a love of the stories of Sherlock Holmes that comes across from all of the stories. Little details like the Persian Slipper become stories. There's mashups from other stories (H G Wells War of the Worlds for example) and they often t...
Full disclaimer: I love Sherlock Holmes, and I love That Bastard HP Lovecraft, and I love James Lovegrove. So this review is gunna be a little bit of a love fest, to be honest. So there are a few stories and such that combine HP and Sherlock, the most famous of which is Neil Gaiman's short story "...
So... this book. I'm not sure if my ambivalence towards Sherlock Holmes made this book better or worse than it would be otherwise. There are some Holmes stories I greatly enjoy, others I don't care for. In this story I found Holmes a bit annoying. But what really bothered me was how early on t...

If Arthur Conan Doyle had teamed up with H.G. Wells and Jules Verne to write his Sherlock Holmes stories, I am sure the result would have been something like James Lovegrove's "The Stuff of Nightmares".I enjoyed the book and its steampunk-ish ideas. One leap in logic that did not land on a firm foot...
Clocking in at over 500 pages, with 25 stories, Kaiju Rising: Age of Monsters is a somewhat daunting read. Assembling that many authors to write about giant monsters is an awesome feat all on its own, but to do it as a Kickstarter project is just mind-boggling. Tim Marquitz & Nickolas Sharps are abs...
George Mann and thirteen other writers provide new mystery-solving fodder for the famous duo of Holmes and Watson. I say well done over all. A couple of the stories were a bit dry (and I fell asleep reading those), but I enjoyed most of the stories. I liked how unique each one read, yet Holmes and W...
