Wrookie Wreck

Over at the long post blog, a long post on season 3 of The Rookie.

Coming to a Close

Over at the long post blog, a long post in the form of a review of Terry Brooks The Last Druid, the 29th and chronologically final book in his world of Shannara novels.

Over at the long post blog, a (get this!) long post with some observations about reading Batman comics today.

Curtain

Over at the long-post blog I finished an appreciation of Steven Bochco's three greatest hits on television, Hill Street Blues, L.A. Law and NYPD Blue. I'd been noodling with it for awhile, and Bochco's passing yesterday spurred the effort. Thanks for some fine TV, Stevie.

Comic Bookin'

Over at the long-post blog, a long post on DC Comics' Kingdom Come miniseries by Mark Waid and Alex Ross, which premiered 20 years ago this month.

To Be or Not to Be

Over at the long-post blog, there is a long post on how Schrödinger's cat might say something about the mind of God. You may ask yourself, "Why would I want to read that," which is OK, because I was asking myself a similar question about writing it while I did so.

Watching Watchman

Over at the long-post blog, an extended encounter with the "new" Harper Lee novel, Go Set a Watchman. Spoilers!

Maybe You Will Leave Harlan Alive

The long post blog returns, with some thinking about the end of the great series Justified.

Long Post

Over at the long-post blog, I have a long post considering Robert B. Parker's character of April Kyle, featured in three of his Spenser novels. I am not particularly complimentary. And you know, when a knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing righty wingnut like me calls someone out on how they see and write a female character, there's got to be something wrong. Oh, and warning: Many spoilers.

Bridging the Mote

That horrible pun is not to be found in a post at the long-post blog, a spoiler-heavy piece on Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's classic The Mote in God's Eye.

Dune Buggin'

A long post on Frank Herbert's Dune, over at the long-post blog. Enjoy, slumber or ignore, as seems best to you.

What started as a standard "From the Rental Vault" entry morphed into a long post over at the long post blog. Feel free to muse over how much I need an editor.

Long Wait Brings Long Wind

The publication of A Memory of Light, the final volume in the epic Robert Jordan fantasy series Wheel of Time, inspires a long post over at the long-post blog.

Blockbuster Showdown

The Avengers vs. The Dark Knight Rises. Fire away, O fellow geeks!

(ETA link to my own opinion)

Three Giants

I dig around in the "Giants" series by James P. Hogan (referenced in a post here last month) at the long-post blog.

Windy Day

In a sort of surprising move, Stephen King published The Wind Through the Keyhole, an eighth Dark Tower novel after saying eight years ago that the series was finished at seven books.

In a rather less surprising move, I blather about it here. Spoilers aplenty, be thee 'ware.

A Trip on Mars

A century after publication, John Carter of Barsoom makes it to the screen. I went, and wrote a long post about it at the long post blog here.

Wrinkled Time

Over at the long post blog, a long post (whattaya know!) about Stephen King's time-travel novel 11/22/63. Verrrrry spoiler-heavy.

Not Exactly? Exactly!

Talking about a book turned into a post better for the long-post blog, here.

Songs, Ice, Fire & Whatnot

Over at the long-post blog is a (surprise!) long post about reading George R.R. Martin's A Game of Thrones. Much spoilage; it'd be best not to read it if you've not read Martin's books and want to find out how they end on your own.
