Great idea but not flawless
It was a great idea from Hugh Howey to do the second book in the Wool trilogy as a prequel rather than a standard sequel. Having already read Wool, Shift gives the reader a chance to find out how the silos came in to be which proves to be a very intriguing story for the most part.
My only criticism would be that having finished Wool, I was desperate to find out how the characters in that story were faring, and Shift completely removed that by in effect restarting the story. Shift was needed, however it may have been better as the final book in the trilogy!

New 2 character gameplay
Can be played on the Nintendo Wii
A great prequel to the franchise
Another great Resident Evil game, this time set before the events of the first game. It has a very similar look and feel to the GameCube remake. The graphics again are excellent with great detail light and shadow effects. It has a new feature where an extra character will help you out and you can switch between the two at different stages. The story is good and the bosses were well designed as you would expect. A HD version of this is available on the next gen consoles. Check it out if you missed it!

I received an copy of Dracul from the Penguin, First to Read program.
****
Dracul is a nice prequel to Stoker's Dracula. It did take a little while for me to get into the book, but once I reached part 2, I was hooked. The format was the same as Dracula, written in the form of journals and letters, which was effective. It makes me want to go back and read Dracula again. The material for this novel was source from Bram Stoker's own journals, and by far, that was the most terrifying thing to realize after reading this story. The Author's Note goes into detail, and shows some of the handwritten notes of Stoker.

Julia stiles
Watched last night on paramount plus as I've never seen the first orphan film which intend to when I get back to the UK this weekend. Anyway the film its not that bad a film for a prequel without a doubt isabelle fuhrmann is the star of the films the fact that the film makers can somehow get her again to play a ten year old now she's in her 20s is remarkable and then there's Julia stiles as the unsuspecting mother who doesn't that Esther isn't her Esther is also good . Plus there's a twist halfway thru the movie didn't see coming anyway got to find the orignal orphan and watch it
