Dean (6927 KP) rated Britannia - Season 1 in TV
Apr 8, 2018 (Updated Apr 8, 2018)
Dull and uneventful
Well this was billed as a GoT stop gap. It might have the grand production but overall I just couldn't keep interested. Just watched the last episode today having started a couple of months ago or more. First episode aside there is little action and far too much talk of "the Gods" spirit worlds etc. When it did finally end it wasn't really a good conclusion. I won't be bothering if they do another series.
Audiobook: Stephen Fry’s excellent book narrated expertly.
I love Stephen Fry’s voice, and he reads his book so well. There’s great detail and great story choices. I’m a big fan of Greek mythology anyway, ever since I was a child, and this is a superb way to revisit those stories. It’s a great selection, I really enjoyed his take on the stories and what he added to the dialogue of the Gods, Goddesses and unfortunate humans.

David McK (3562 KP) rated Pyramids: Discworld Novel 7 in Books
Jun 11, 2023
7th novel in Terry Pratchett's ongoing Discworld series (and the first individual novel), this was quite possibly my introduction to that series - I can't remember having read any before this one (though I have read them all since).
As this is set quite early on, a lot of the now familiar characters were yet to be introduced and expanded upon. Indeed, you can even see the beginnings of what would become "Small Gods" in the pages of this book.
