![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As Bruce Willis as Old Joe says in Looper ‘I don't want to talk about time travel because if we start talking about it then we're going to be here all day talking about it, making diagrams with straws’.įor every romantic Time Traveler’s Wife there’s a cynical Hot Tub Time Machine – equally valid, one definitely funnier than the other. Quantum Leap and Time Tunnel (not to forget The Philadelphia Experiment) spent a great deal of time on the mechanics of getting there. He just focussed his mind and suddenly was there. ![]() The Butterfly Effect was a pretty good attempt at showing just how impossible it all can be to go back and ‘fix’ things, and more importantly they didn’t obsess about the machinery to do it. I love the paradox and all the complexities. I’ve always loved Time Travel stories and movies such as Twelve Monkeys or the recent Looper. ![]() ![]() ![]() The story line supported by all that machinery intertwines space piracy, kidnapping, mass murder, multiple alien encounters, and the narrator’s struggle with her personal history and psychology. It also engages with questions about the nature of personality, authenticity, autonomy, and the good society (here, the galaxy-spanning Synarche). ![]() ![]() Ancestral Night, Elizabeth Bear ( Saga Press 978-1-5344-0298-0, $25.99, 499pp, hc) March 2019.Įlizabeth Bear’s Ancestral Night is a big book (with a promise of more bigness to come – the title page says it is “White Space Book 1”) crammed with a variety of SF motifs and tropes and furniture items: space operatics, interstellar civilization, Big (Variably Smart) Objects, alien encounters, deep galactic history, artificial intelligences, and neural/physical enhancements for the meat-based characters. ![]() ![]() ![]() SOREN IS A HEATED, FATED-MATES MM PARANORMAL ROMANCE WITH A HEA AND NO CLIFFHANGER. But Soren has been running for a reason, and the skeletons in his closet threaten to tear the couple apart before they can even begin. When circumstances force the two of them together, Soren’s obsession and Gabe’s unwilling attraction are brought to a head. But instead of moving on months ago, he’s been kicking his heels in the most boring town in the world, hoping for one stubborn, annoyingly compelling human to pay him even a bit of attention. He hasn’t kept himself alive for centuries by letting himself be a sitting duck. Soren Iversen never meant to stay in Hyde Park this long. Especially one pesky, annoyingly beautiful vampire in particular. He’s been slowly working to repair the mistakes he’s made, but his efforts aren’t made any easier by the new existence of vampires in his world. Returning to be a doctor in his small Colorado hometown was supposed to bring him closer to his family, not push them even further away. His disastrous personal life is evidence enough of that. Gabe Kingman has never been great with his emotions. ![]() ![]() ![]() From age play to masochism, these chapters cover some of the edgiest, most taboo and controversial elements of kink in depth. The second section is dedicated to role-playing fantasies and personal manifestos. ![]() Divided into two sections, the first section features thorough, thoughtful pieces-on everything from flogging to bondage-packed with techniques and beautifully illustrated with original images from artist Katie Diamond. The book brings together diverse voices from the kink community in an unprecedented way: each chapter is written by a different sexuality/BDSM educator. "The Ultimate Guide to Kink" is the first major guide to BDSM in a generation-a bold and sexy collection of essays that run the gamut from expert how-to tutorials to provocative essays that delve into complex questions about desire, power, and pleasure. ![]() ![]() ![]() It seems like Gwynne went into writing this series with big ambitions and wasn’t going to hold back on his vision. ![]() (There are a few people who get called “arselings” as homage to Leofric I imagine and warriors in this world wish to die with a weapon in their hand.) It features The Witcher-esque monsters and heartwarming friendships and camaraderie that I also adored in Gwynne’s The Faithful and the Fallen series. ![]() Gwynne has crafted a fresh and unique fantasy world and adventure that I’d summarise as a mixture of some of the finest elements from Norse Mythology and Bernard Cornwell’s The Last Kingdom novels. Through the eyes of these characters, I was engrossed from the very first chapter and by about the fourth chapter I was chuffed to see that Gwynne had worked his magic again. They all have deep and interesting pasts of which we are given more details of as the story progresses. These characters are Orka, an ex-warrior who lives with her husband and son at a quiet steading, Varg, a thrall who is running to escape his slave masters, and Elvar, a young warrior who is trying to find battle fame with the monster hunting warband the Battle-Grim. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the finale of the play performance, depicting Lincoln's death, Sierra throws herself onto Eli and they both begin sobbing, she feeling the loss of her father and he mourning his father's descent into alcoholism (""They were a duet of tears, converging grief, his body shuddering beneath her own""). As Sierra and Eli, her estranged best friend, research their roles (Mary Todd Lincoln and her husband, respectively), Caseley stretches her theme almost to the snapping point. She finds parallels between Lincoln's personality and that of her father, and between her personal life and that of ""A.L."" When her class is assigned to write and perform a play, Sierra suggests that they base it on Lincoln's life. ![]() ![]() Missing him greatly, the 13-year-old finds solace in the portrait of Abraham Lincoln that her father had hung on her bedroom wall (""Lincoln's melancholy expression soothed her, as if his etched lines of pain knew her sorrow"") and, in a posthumous gift from her father, a collection of Lincoln's speeches and writings. Caseley's (Starring Dorothy Kane) moving if uneven novel opens as a credibly limned, diverse group of relatives-Jewish on her father's side and Cuban on her mother's-gathers to mourn the death of Sierra Goodman's father. ![]() ![]() The disappearance of Eleanor Rigby / writer/director, Ned Benson.

Legend has it that twins Romulus and Remus founded Rome, and they’re introduced as irrepressible youngsters as it’s revealed how unfair society was before Rome existed, when the Sabines were the dominant people. Fajardo, though, springs the first of many surprises after the now customary rhyming prologue supplies the background to the city’s foundation and early days. Fajardo considered an introductory trilogy for Kid Beowulf, and with the introductions over, it seems as if Beowulf is now heading to the crowning glory of his era: the city of Rome.
