Star Trek: The Covenant of the Crown (1981) – Howard Weinstein

  It’s time to continue going boldy with the next installment in the Pocket Books non-canon Star Trek series. The next novel in the collection is The Covenant of the Crown. It’s special because its author, Howard Weinstein also wrote an episode of the Star Trek: Animated Series, The Pirates of Orion. This novel joins…

Da Vinci’s Demons: Season 3

  Releasing from Anchor Bay today is the final season of David S. Goyer’s series that follows the times and trials of a young Leonardo Da Vinci. The ten episodes, spanning three discs, bring the series to a satisfying conclusion, though I will be sad to see Tom Riley leave the series behind, I quite…

Resident Evil: Extinction (2007) – Russell Mulcahy

  The Sci-Fi Chronicles continues to explore my guilty pleasure film series, by plunging me into the third film based upon the popular Capcom video game.

Running from 29 September…

This year is no different, running from February…

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004) – Alexander Witt

  It’s time to check in with Alice (Milla Jovovich) as I continue my journey through the Resident Evil film franchise for the Sci-Fi Chronicles book. Picking up pretty much where the first one left off, this time Alice dives into the above ground horrors unleashed by Umbrella’s T-Virus as she tries to get out…
