Natari (73 KP) rated Hunt the Moon (Cassandra Palmer, #5) in Books
Jul 19, 2019
Hunt the Moon is a great addition to the series because it takes us Deeper than ever before. Prepare to light up the dark side of the moon, because this book is a super-bright flashlight on the mysteries and mythologies that fuel the Cassandra Palmer world and the overall plot of the series. But be ready for some shadows and more questions to be thrown in as unexpected twists and turns take us on a whole new, thrilling angle.
I really enjoyed Hunt the Moon. Karen Chance onces again nails the pace of action, romance and deepening our understanding of the loveable characters she has created. In Hunt the Moon we learn a lot about the big three, Cassie, Pritkin and Mircea which puts their behaviour and way of reacting to life in a whole new light. It's a work of art.
In Hunt the Moon, Cassie finds herself a brand new enemy, because rogue vampires, black wizards and gods were't enough. Now she gets to throw in the fae and demi-gods too. Who bring with them a whole new bag of tricks. And while you shouldn't laugh at someone who always seems to find herself and her bodyguards in the midst of explosions, but, well, it's damn funny when a stoned pythia is glaring at a possessed fridge. Karen is able to be serious and cover some unsettling topics like war, politics and childhood trauma (of all varieties) and balance it with pleasant prose and just straight-up fun. That's the best word for the Cassie Palmer series, it is fun to read.

Alison Pink (7 KP) rated To the Nines (Stephanie Plum #9) in Books
Jan 15, 2018
In the 9th installment of the Stepahnie Plum series Stephanie finds herself as the "prize" in a real-life game of murder. The players in this game are set up to hunt each other down by being given email clues from the Web Master an unknown person who directs the game & controls those who play it. Stephanie unknowingly thrusts herself into the game when she goes out to hunt down a guy who has bailed on his visa bond.
This book was much more suspensful than the last few in the series. There's lots of tasering, shooting, kidnapping, & bodyguarding. I figured out who the Web Master was with about 100 pages left to go...though I had my suspcisions earlier on. That didn't take away from the plot though.

A movie you can really sink your teeth into
Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a horror/comedy about a high school cheerleader who learns that it is her destiny to hunt vampires.
juggling being a student/cheerleader & Training to hunt & kill the undead proves to be a little more stressfull as the final hour draws closer.
A fun light hearted yet dark themed Classic.
The movie was a moderate success at the box office but garnered mixed reviews by critics.
taken in a different direction than writer Joss Whedon intended, five years later, he created the darker, more successful TV series of the same name.
directed by Fran Rubel Kuzui
starring Kristy Swanson, Donald Sutherland, Paul Reubens, Rutger Hauer, Luke Perry, and Hilary Swank.

Fred (860 KP) rated the PlayStation 4 version of Assassin's Creed: Odyssey in Video Games
Mar 16, 2019
Epic adventure!
Assassin's Creed is one of my favorite series of video games. I loved them all & this one may be the best of all. Ancient Greece is the setting & you play as one of two characters, either male or female. You play as a mercenary, which allows for many types of missions. The story is very involved and takes you all over an enormous world. The world is beautiful & it's worth exploring every inch.
My favorite new features of the game are the way you can hunt other mercenaries in the game & move up the chain. Sort of like the Lord of the Rings games where you can hunt specific orcs & goblins. The other is hunting cult members. You do missions to find out the identities of the cult members, then hunt them down. All very exciting.
So far they have kept the Azimuth stuff to a minimum, which is fine.
This game is huge. I have played for over 20 hours so far & nowhere near completing it. Not even half I would guess.
I also love the photo feature in the game & find myself using it a lot. The game is that beautiful.
If you like the others, then this is a must buy.

I know it's a bit strange, but I haven't actually read the first two books in this series however, this didn't detract from my enjoyment of this story. Although I recognise I have missed quite a lot of the back story to Sarah's character, Iain has provided just enough information so you don't feel lost.
What we have hear is a fast-paced story where the hunt for a serial killer intertwines with the hunt for a terrorist from Sarah's past; both are hell-bent on bringing the Nation to it's knees in fear.
Sarah is a strong cookie but even she is questioning her ability to keep going. It is clear she has been through a lot and is damaged by her experiences but she has little choice but to hunt those responsible for the atrocities that are occurring with her colleagues in the Major Crimes Unit.
Full of action, this is a book that is hard to stop reading from the first to the last word. There are surprises and twists along the way and, I have to say, a very satisfying ending.
Thank you to Iain for providing me with a copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

I really, really enjoyed this movie. Unfortunately, in these dark times, I have zero problem believing the humans hunting humans concept.
Betty Gilpin can do no wrong. She is AMAZING here. 👏👏
Super dark humor throughout, really well done.
VERY violent - though if you didn't expect violence going into a film called "The Hunt," I don't know what to tell you.
