Great to have the Doctor and TARDIS back
As a Whovian, this review will be very bias.
If you have never seen any classic Who this was a great place to start. The mystery of a blue police box and its lone traveller in space and time still keeps you guessing on where we will be going next and who we will meet, friend or foe. Old enemies and new still keep you poised to jump behind the sofa.
The mix of humour, drama and Sci-Fi still makes this the best British series ever. It is a shame Christopher Eccleston didn't do more than one series but he certainly did a 'Fantastic' job at bringing this much loved character back.

I love these books. And the second one does not disappoint! The story continues with Sorrowlynn learning to fight so she can go after Golmarr, her love who now hates her.
After some mishaps Sorrow learns that her life has been predicted and she must choose to follow the path. Gaining new friends and enemies this book continues the epic quest.
I adore both Sorrow and Golmarr. They have a love that is tested again and again. Yet they have to learn to get past obsicales together. The story does a great job of keeping you on your toes while making you read super fast to find out what will happen.
highly recommend to anyone who loves dragons, fantasy, and really good plots.

This is one of my favorite Disney movies and I still remember watching it in the theater when I was 7 or 8 years old. I cried then and cry every time I watch it. Tod is a fox who was orphaned and raised by Widow Tweed. Amos Slade is Widow Tweed's neighbor and owner of Copper, a hound dog. Tod and Copper meet up and become fast friends, unaware that they are meant to be enemies. There is great music, a great story and a wonderful message about friendship. Best of all, it doesn't focus on beautiful princesses looking for a hero.

Unnecessary running
I really liked the customization of weapons and armor and different skill trees. Lots of flexibility usable with different play styles. You can craft different ammo types using materials.
Some of the more basic weapons were fun to use with the hunting missions against animals.
The variety of enemies was also a lot of fun and provided a lot of variety.
Some of the game felt a little hand holdy, but still very fun to explore. Lots of side quests provide a lot of additional game time.
Reputability is good since you can save your cool weapons you have accumulated throughout the game.
Overall, very entertaining game with cool visuals and characters.

We have always wondered, Neil tells us the answer.
I love a good epic book, I love a good story which has the various Gods in. Neil Gaiman gives us Godsand Godesses from all different cultures, they are friends and enemies, and they are not doing much now.
What a fantastic idea, Gaiman pulls it off superbly. His weird style of writing is a great fit to follow the journey of Shadow and Wednesday. It's a journey well worth telling and well worth reading.
Gaiman is not everyone's cup of tea, even if he is not yours you will enjoy this. If he is yours, why have you not read it yet?

Rhage and Mary's story!!
Rhage is different from the other brothers, also known as "Hollywood" for his good looks, but his interest is mostly in killing members of the Lessening Society and being with his brothers.
JR Ward has a way of making you fall in love with each character (one at a time) and feeling a part of their story as it develops. Yes this could be considered a romance to some extent but that isn't what this really is in my opinion. The Black Dagger Brotherhood series is a highly addictive series of books with Vampires, action, enemies and the love interest although engaging is a side line to the main story. If you enjoy Vampire books then these are a must read!

This game was so incredibly dark and disturbing while at the same time being mesmerising and beautiful. It is about a little girl called Six who seems to have been kidnapped and has to escape a ship filled with what appear to be monsters and creatures. The imagery is downright creepy, from the suicide connotations and the cannibalism. The "enemies" that Six must avoid to get out include a long armed "janitor", Vile looking "Twin Chefs", obese monstrous "guests" and a humming geisha lady who is the most threatening of all.
I highly recommend this game, its fun and quirky to play for a quick play through but has lots of interesting hidden content to explore and fun achievements to unlock.
