I think that Half-Blood Prince is probably my second favorite book after Azkaban. This book has so much intrigue and gives us so many answers to the questions that we had. It's great. I always enjoy reading this one.

Ross (3282 KP) rated King of Thorns in Books
Sep 5, 2017
The second in the broken empire trilogy continues from where the "prince..." left off. Jorg is now King of Renar having successfully taken over rule from his naughty uncle.
In this book we see Jorg seemingy become more regal, less of a renegade loose canon, though this turns out not to be through his choice.
Similar to the first book, the story line is split between the "present", 4 years after the events of the Prince of Thorns and a separate timeline following immediately from the first book. The way these are woven together allows a good rate of reveals of key events and information along the way, while also leaving enough mystery behind for later.
The plot follows Jorg on his wedding day trying to defend his land from the would-be emperor, the prince of Arrow, and also in the past on a tour of the outlying countries trying to solve various problems.
The post-apocalyptic element hinted at in the first book is further explored here, but not in a way to detract from the important points of the story.
Overall this is an excellent follow-up with top-notch storytelling and engaging action, with the prince/king we love to hate and hate to hate.

Rachel P (2 KP) rated The Selection in Books
Jan 4, 2018
The Selection follows America Singer as she is chosen as one of 35 girls who must compete to win over Prince Maxon. The book can be described as part Bachelor, part Cinderella, and part Divergent. It takes place in a dystopian society that uses a caste system. Of course, the prince is in the first caste, and America is in the fifth. The writing and storyline are not at all appealing to me, but I'm giving 2 stars because it was entertaining enough for me to finish, and it took my mind off school and studying for a few hours.

Dracula Back From The Grave
Dracula Has Risen From The Grave- is the 4rd Dracula film from Hammer but the 3rd one that stars Christopher Lee.
The plot: A small Transylvanian village receives the full brunt of Dracula's terror after a priest exorcises his castle. Christopher Lee is the arch-bloodsucker whose lust for a beautiful young bishop's niece incurs the wrath of the entire village.
In Australia, the film was the first Hammer Dracula to be passed by the censors; the previous films Dracula and Dracula: Prince of Darkness were banned.
It is better than "Prince of Darkness".
