I received this book from Barclay Publicity in return for a fair and honest review.

A senator's life is being threatened, along with his four-year-old daughter's. The agent assigned to him has a previous history with the senator from years ago when the senator was his lawyer. This book is quick and explosive in all ways possible. From the start, you have bomb explosions and fistfights and then there is the whole 'thing' going on with the Senator and the Agent! This is a novella and as such, things have to move along quickly and this does indeed move quickly.

It is well written, fast-paced and punchy which makes it perfect for a coffee break read. Recommended for all fans of the novella and m/m romances.

"Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb..."

Oh, wait, wrong Batman!

Completely and utterly tonally different than the Adam West incarnation, this version has Michael Keaton - at the time, a controversial casting choice of an actor known for more comedic roles - taking on the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman in a very Gothic setting: all high rises, smoke and corruption.

With Commissioner Gordon only given a token role, and changing elements of the Batman mythos in giving Jack Nicholson's Joker a pre-Joker identity (and in having him responsible for the murder of Bruce's parents), this Batman also does not seem at all concerned with his famous no-killing rule (or is it a guideline?). It's also definitely a product of its time, complete with songs by Prince woven into the narrative!
