One of the best books that I have ever read!!!

If you are not an avid reader the size of this book might dissuade you from even cracking it open, but don’t let it. Acheron is part of The Dark Hunter Series. If you’ve read any of the other books in this series and had questions, this one answers them all. Tears, laughter, hate, anger, shock, love, and more tears. You will be familiar with all of these and much more. Unfortunately, I had to put the book down, even I couldn’t finish it in one sitting...

Acheron’s tale is one that you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy. His story goes all the way back to his beginning. It tells of a mothers love and hate. A brothers love and hate. Gods and Goddesses, love and hate, lust, dominance, forgiveness, sorrow, all rolled into one book.

Cool enemy design
Great Survival Horror
Until I played this game the only survival Horror games I had played were some of the early Resident Evil games. This was actually a very good and very creepy game. One of the first that used a flashlight mode I think? A lot of the game had you wondering what was going to be around the next corner.
Set in a prison after being found guilty of killing his family. You have to try and escape as some creatures have taken over the prison. Along the way you can help others or not... The decisions affected flashbacks towards the events that happened. You could also use your anger to turn into a a mini Hulk rage type creature yourself. It was a big game taking a long time to complete as well.
For the time a lot of the ideas were quite new and original.

Civil Rights hero
A masterfully done historical drama,
Chadwick Boseman was absolutely the perfect person for the part of Jackie Robinson.
This film has a very real feel of the hatred and anger in the USA POST WW2.
There was a lot of ignorance and discontent at the time.
I think it is important that this is seen not just as a baseball movie but also that it carries with it to my mind an important piece of the post war civil rights movement.
Powerful and thought provoking, the writers did not shy away from the uglier parts of the racist rhetoric and presented it fully and broadly to be challenged head on.
I would reccomend this to anyone who has an interest in either baseball or civil rights or both together as it presents the telling of a story from a true American hero.
Rest in peace number 42
