Tempe finds herself in the midst of a doomsday cult head by a crazy woman who is capable of murdering babies jut because their father isn't her chosen mate for the mother. With the hekp of detective Andrew Ryan Tempe solve the mystery and mange the stop the crazy woman before she manage to murder all her followers including Tempe's sister in order to use their "soul energy" for acensstion. When Igot to that part of the book, for a minute I thought that I'm reading a Stargate book LOL. At the end of the book Tempe and Ryan become a couple.

I enjoyed reading the book. It's very interesting and full of suspenc.

Doctor Who: Forever autumn

This time the Doctor & Martha find themselves in New England on Halloween. Everything is ready for the night festivities, but suddenly the trappings (bats, skeletons etc.) come to life and attack the town's people. Enter the Doctor who with the help of his loyal sonic screwdriver find that as usual aliens in a buried spaceship are behind the attacks. Aliens that use people as fuel for their ship. Nasty.

It's an unputdownable book. Good thing that today is Saturday so I was able to read :).

From reading all these Doctor Who booksand watching the show, one can get the idea that our ball of rock is home for lost of aliens and their crashed or entombed spaceships ;)

Robocop news from Dynamite

Road Trip is the first chance to take a look at Robocop's twisted version of America outside the confines of Old Detroit. But OCP isn't going to just let Murphy and what's left of the Old Detroit Police Department run off to get help. An entirely new deadly robot prototype is on their tail. And with Murphy's mind fracturing following the death of his partner, Lewis, Road Trip has a somewhat psychedelic double meaning.

Of course I'm going to pre-order this mini series :) The question is when I'm going to get it. For the last couple of months the shipments from Diamond don't arrive on time to CNV - my local comics shop. We are still waiting for last week's shipment and God only knows when this week's shipemnt will arrive. And when the shipments arrive, they don't include all the Dynamite issues. I'm still waiting for Total Recall #3.

DC for December 2011

1. SUPERNATURAL #3

5 new comics so far solicited for December 2011

G.I. Joe: A real American hero vol.2

Very entertainign story. Too bad that the Joes are portrayed as too gulible because they enabled Cobra to find the location of the Pit and the baroness to mock them and escape from a very secured cell in the Pit. At least Storm Shadow managed to release Snake Eyes from Cobra's mental grasp. The art is great. looking forward to the next volume.

The great thing about these books is that it's possible to read the next volume months after reading the previous one without having to go back and read the previous book.

Vampire Academy graphic novel

A very good adaptation of the 1st Vampire Academy novel. The art is good too, except for the coloring of the characters. While the Dahmpirs are supposed to be light brown, the Moroi should be white. But some of the Dahmpir boys are colored whiter then they should be which make it hard to know who is who because the faces and hair style are almost the same in all the boys.

I hope that the rest of the books will be adapted too. I enjoy reading them in both formats :)

Doctor Who: Prisoner of the Daleks

Great Doctor Who book. For once it took me several days to finish it. The Doctor is lured by the Daleks to a ruined planet with a rift in time, in order to enable the Daleks to penetrate the time vortex. The Doctor manage to use Dalek X's 1 tract mind and lure it to where the Tardis is and save the day. Although the Doctor prevailing is a given, it was very interesting to read how he did it. Iove David Tenant's Doctor. He is the best Doctor ever.

Eureka: The road less traveled

The crasies inGD manage to open a door between 2 parallel Eurekas and if they won't find a way to close it both Eurekas will be destroyed. As usual sheriff Carter is there to save the day.

A very fun read. This book is as good as the previous 2. The author catched the characters perfectly. Reading it is like watching a very long Eureka eppisode. I wish that there will be more Eureka books, but for now it look like this is the last one :(

Dresden files: Changes

I'm posting from my laptop and for some reason I can't paste anything into this post GRRRRR.

Anyhow, this is the 1st Dresden Files book that I didn't finish reading. From page 1 I didn't like the way the story is going. In the previous 11 books Harry never did anything bad. He kept saving the world. Harry doesn't deserve to loose his office, house and dog. Not to mention loosing his soul to Mab the winter queen. Loosing Mouse was the reason I didn't read till the end. I hate reading of bad things happening to my kids kin :(

Alex Rider: Point blank

When an investigation into a series of mysterious deaths leads agents to an elite prep school for rebellious kids, MI6 assigns Alex Rider to the case. Before he knows it, Alex is hanging out with the sons of the rich and powerful, and something feels wrong. These former juvenile delinquents have turned well-behaved, studious—and identical—overnight. It’s up to Alex to find out who is masterminding this nefarious plot, before they find him.

I love reading books about life in boarding schools. The 2nd book in the Alex Rider series is better then the 1st one. Unlike in the 1st book, here alex is sent to investigate things in a boarding school when more suitable for him then being sent to spy on a computer company. I loved the idea if 16 rich boys being replaced by 16 clones of a madman :)

CSI: Dark sundays

A lavish penthouse party on top of a Vegas hotel and casino plays host to a bizarre set-up to murder in which a security guard is trapped and killed in a private elevator—and the body soon vanishes . . . leading crime scene investigators Nick Stokes and Greg Sanders straight to an uncanny circus troupe with deadly connections to none other than the Russian mafia. In the meantime, Ray Langston and Catherine Willows are called to a psychiatric facility where two patients have just escaped after attacking an orderly. One of the escaped patients, an Iraq war veteran, managed to smuggle in a military-grade nerve gas, inducing realistic and shared three-dimensional illusions and hallucinations . . . and Ray and Catherine must race against time in order to find two very dangerous individuals now roaming freely on the streets of Las Vegas. . . .

A wonderful CSI book. At least the part not involving the hunt for 2 escaped mental patients. Till almost the end when a former CIA agent approaches Greg, there is no clue to what really happened. Well maybe except the fact that a Russian circus is involved. The part of the nuts hunt was boring. The author could have come up with more interesting case for Catherin and Ray. I still miss Grissom. Sonehow CSI isn;t the same without him.

Star Trek Typhon Pact: Zero sum game

A spy for the Typhon Pact—a new political rival of the Federation—steals the plans for Starfleet’s newest technological advance: the slipstream drive. To stop the Typhon Pact from unlocking the drive’s secrets, Starfleet Intelligence recruits a pair of genetically enhanced agents: Dr. Julian Bashir, of station Deep Space 9, and Sarina Douglas, a woman whose talents Bashir helped bring to fruition, and whom Bashir thinks of as his long-lost true love. Bashir and Douglas are sent to infiltrate the mysterious species known as the Breen, find the hidden slipstream project, and destroy it. Meanwhile, light-years away, Captain Ezri Dax and her crew on the U.S.S. Aventine play a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a Typhon Pact fleet that stands between them and the safe retrieval of Bashir and Douglas from hostile territory.

The 1st Typhon pact book is not bad. I don't remember seeing or reading anything about Bashir and that Douglas woman & the Jack Pack, but I don't have many of the Star Trek books pre the Destiny trilogy so it doesn't mean anything. I miss having Spock, Picard, Riker etc. in the story. The books give an extensive view into the Breen species. During the book we learn that they are not a homogenous species. They are an amalgamation of 4-5 species that hide behing uniform body armour and helmets.
