Computers of Star Trek by Lois H. Gresh & Robert E. Weinberg is exactly what it states to be in its title. It examines the various pieces of technology used in the different iterations of Star Trek through the years and compares it to the reality (and future of) technology.The problem was that it i...
The Science of Supervillains by Lois H. Gresh & Robert Weinberg was just as much fun as The Science of Superheroes which I read earlier this year. This volume discusses the possibility (or impossibility) of the various powers and abilities that supervillains from comic lore possess. They cover such ...
What an absolutely FUN read The Science of Superheroes turned out to be! Lois H. Gresh & Robert E. Weinberg took several big name superheroes like Superman, Batman, The Flash, Ant Man, Aquaman, and the X-Men (just to name a few) and discussed in-depth their powers, origin stories, narrative continui...
I don't like Fifty Shades of Grey (and yes, I have read the entire series). But then, if you've been reading my reviews, you'll find that I take issue with a lot of romance and erotic novels. I'm picky about writing style, quality of editing, and the pervasiveness of certain troupes and abusive be...

There were a handful of really good disturbing stories and no real stinkers, which I hate in an antholog...
"The Mortal Instruments Companion includes fascinating background facts about the action in all seven books" What an epic fail! The publisher can't even get right how many Mortal Instruments books there are.
REAL RATING 2.5 STARS A nice addition to the sereis. A lot of the info seemed like it was simpily meant to fill space. It was funny at parts, but not that much. I'd only recomend this to hardcore Snicket fans.
In a mix of urban fantasy and horror these are short shorts with an average of 6 pages per story some are longer and some are shorter. They're a good mix and I enjoyed most of them.
I know I will take alot of flack for this review but I'm just not a YA genre fan I guess. This book felt like Twilight without the vampires and werewolves and Fifty Shades without all the money. The entire time I was reading this book all I could think was "ya right". This book was so farfetched ...
