I began with Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman’s Dragonlance Chronicles long after their glory had been established. The original series, Chronicles, was published in 1986, the year I graduated high school. At the time, although I was an avid Dungeons & Dragons fan, I was more interested in the Forgotten Realms and had been playing [...]
For me to finally read the books that center on of one of the fantasy genre’s most beloved character’s (and one that I think everyone who ever played D&D in the Forgotten Realms world wanted to be) was a fait accompli. I had generally enjoyed many of the books I read under the Forgotten Realms [...]

Rarely have I seen a fantasy character take shape so well and under such sinister and devastating circumstances. When I [...]

Well’s book The Time Machine is a classic science fiction story of a time traveler who visits a faraway future where humans have evolved [...]
I’m rediscovering Stephen King lately and how much fun he can be. At least, you gotta love him for being so prolific. His latest horror novel is Cell, which is surely King’s literary revenge against annoying cellphone users. In the book, a strange pulse is sent to cellphones, and anyone using a cellphone at the [...]
