Fantastic beginning to the memorable New 52 run of Batman. The introduction of the Court of Owls into the Batman mythos has not only provided the world's greatest detective with a new mystery to solve, but further expands the ever darkening legacy of Gotham City. One of my favorite Batman stories.

Oct 5, 2020

The curmudgeonly A.J Fikry is an unlikely character to own the only bookstore on a New England island, but all that begins to change when someone leaves a 25-month-old baby girl in his store. Read my review of this lovely novel here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2014/03/20/greater-than-the-sum-of-its-short-stories/

2.5 stars
A short story about Will's undercover adventure that occurs between books 6 and 7 of the series. The first chapter was jam-packed full of action. It was a quick read and while each discovery surprised me, I felt it was lacking something - but I'm used to the full-length stories, so maybe that's just my problem.

Excellent

This movie was very intense-emotionally speaking. The acting was spot on and the cinematography was great. If you're into military stories about what soldiers go through between home life and combat life you'll love this one. A great story about an American hero dealing with both. Sadly it ends in truly tragic way. REALLY worth a watch.
