After Search and Rescue I had to step away from Quantum Leap books for awhile, not only cause it was my least favourite to date, but I had other things to read (my To Be Read pile is not going to read itself) and reading the blurb for Random Measures, the next book in the…

Quantum Leap: Search and Rescue (1994) – Melissa Crandall
While I didn’t actively dislike this entry in the Quantum Leap novel series, it is arguably the weakest of the bunch so far, and the only thing that really makes it a Quantum Leap story is the fact that both Sam Beckett and Al Calavicci are in it. But there are a number of continuity…

Quantum Leap (1989) – Genesis Parts I & 2
Quantum Leap. Scott Bakula. Dean Stockwell. I love a lot of science fiction television (and movies) and as much as I love my Star Trek, Quantum Leap has been my favorite show since my introduction to it. I came to it towards the end of Season 2 originally, in fact, I still recall the…
