Somehow this little sci-fi, time travel, paradox embracing film never hit my radar when it first came out. It would occasionally pop up in my recommended lists, and I would think yeah, I should check that out, and then promptly forget about it. But the wait was worth it, because when I finally did settle…

Battlestar Galactica 5: Galactica Discovers Earth (1980) – Micheal Resnick and Glen A. Larson
The Battlestar Galactica jumps forward a ways, passing over a number of episodes (that will be visited in later books) to give us an adaptation of the three hour series opener for the ill-fated, Galactica 1980, which just didn’t have the oomph, mythos, production value or stories of the original, equally ill-fated, series, though it…

Good grief, Charlie Brown you’ve got a new book from DK Canada! The Peanuts Book: A Visual History of the Iconic Comic Strip, is, for me, the perfect feel good book.

Star Trek: A Flag Full of Stars (1991) – Brad Ferguson
The Human Adventure continues as I dive into the next Star Trek novel released by Pocket Books. This one falls into the sub collection known as The Lost Years, filling in the time between The Original Series and The Motion Picture. The first book was simply known as The Lost Years, written by J.M Dillard,…
Star Trek: Enemy Unseen (1990) – V.E. Mitchell
The Human Adventure continues, but they aren’t always outstanding. Sure, of late, there has definitely been an uptick in the quality of stories in the series of late. Unfortunately, Enemy Unseen by V.E. Mitchell didn’t do it for me. Originally written to be part of the five year mission, Paramount and Pocket Books changed the…

Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008/2009/2010) – Cat and Mouse, Hidden Enemy, and The Movie
I’ve been trying to find a reason to give the Clone wars, and after I finished War of the Worlds I decided to scratch that itch. However, with this series I will not be watching them in broadcast order, but chronological order, as the first few seasons especially bounced back and forth through the Clone…
