Little slow to get going. (0 more)
Wow what an ending call me naive but it got me.

Despite a bit of slowness in the build up in this book it all came together for me and I'd recommend not reading too much about it for spoilers would kill it. Just dive in and enjoy the ride.

Firstly, that continuous shot at Dunkirk beach is fantastic. I love everything Keira Knightly is in, and her and James McAvoy are perfect together (that library scene...). The acting is brilliant, and the story is so good on film (book-not so much).
This film always makes me cry, it softens my little stone, black heart.
  
When the board member of a tea museum is murdered, the directors must come together to figure out what happened to keep the museum afloat. I enjoyed the characters but found the pacing a little off.

This is the second book in the Veil Chronicles and it has a different perspective from the first although I feel the events run fairly parallel. You learn more about the society and even one of the characters from Wild Magic. It is all like pieces of a puzzle and I can't wait to fit them all together.

Another enjoyable ride through the almost-end-of-the-world. Each time I listen i realize how much more I like the rebuilding process, rather than the parts that follow the great coming together of each side. Seeing how the different people handle the major change in their lives is always my favorite part of this book.

Good, but complicated
The cast is great and work well together, but the DM is a little railroad-y. Three plot is complicated, and it gets even more so when the party is split. It's also really produced, with lots of discussion and play cut. It's not my favorite D&D podcast, but it's still good.

This book has perhaps the best ending ever as it looks like a character I hate is about to dealt with.

Things are starting to come together in this book, however you are left a bit wary as there is still another book to go so you know that it will not be a happy ending just yet.

really smart well written political action story
really great page and panel layout very creative
even thought i liked the punisher war machine run this was a great return to form to the traditonal version of the punisher while still building upon the story beats put together in that previous run

Didn’t flow
Watchable but disjointed
While being a watchable movie the story seemed like a mash of disjointed scenes.
Hugh Jackman pretty much carries the film on his charm & surprisingly good singing. The cast give a great performance but it just doesn’t pull together.
Miss the Adamantium Claws though!
