 Excellent hard-boiled novel: Very good, well-written detective thriller. I've read many novels in this genre and really enjoyed _The Gun Seller_; it's a quick, fun, but clever homage/satire of the best kind. In the interest of full disclosure, I must [... more]

Up All Night
From Amazon.com: Razorlight's debut album largely delivers on the promise of its successful UK singles, four of which form the core of this equally stripped-to-the-essentials collection. Singer Johnny Borrell may have played the English music press hype [... more]

Ry Cooder
good slide, good arrangements, bad vocals: Very warm, friendly, personable music. It's too bad that Cooder had to ruin it by trying to sing. He seems to think that mumbling out of the side of his mouth constitutes soulfulness. Good album if you like, [... more]

Death in the Clouds
fun ride but she's done better: Aggie starts off the story with a bang (a memorable, highly charged murder location) then sort of finishes it off with some rather silly, almost implausible resolutions to back it up. Only the very astute reader could [... more]

In the words of that crazy gnome, Ross Perot, this book is top drawer: Let me begin by saying that I have not yet finished reading this 600 plus page book. But I am so impressed, I had to say something when I saw there were no reviews on Amazon. Not only [... more]

Red Dwarf: Series 1
From Amazon.com: Notoriously, and entirely appropriately, the original outline for Doug Naylor and Rob Grant's comedy sci-fi series Red Dwarf was sketched on the back of a beer mat. When it finally appeared on British television in 1988, the show had [... more]

Walk In My World
The best anthology of its type: The author of the SLJ review is wrong. Terribly, terribly wrong. A cretin, really. This collection is remarkably consistent. The writing is quite fine and the stories, often relatively obscure, offer a huge breadth of [... more]
