The third and, unfortunately, least of the 4 <i>Red Dwarf</I> books, I actually read this one last, thinking it was book 4 of 4.

Written by Doug Naylor (who co-wrote the first 2 booms with Rob Grant), this follows an all-new plot with certain scenes lifted from the TV show on which it is based. Unfortunately, it fails to capture the humour of the show, with most of the 'funny' bits falling flat.

Both this and the next book (<I>Backwards</I> by Rob Grant) are perhaps best viewed as alternate third books in a trilogy: if that is the case, <I>Backwards</I> is the better of the two, even if neither of the two books in question live up to the first two. In short, the whole (Grant Naylor) is better than the sum of the parts!

Tad Jones, the most awkward explorer, must rescue his beloved Sara from a millionaire who is looking for King Midas' necklace.



Amusing in parts, as always the added extras were more entertaining than the main "cast"... i.e. the animals and the mummy stole the show.

What I didn't realise before seeing this is that it's the second film in the series. In 2012 there was Tadeo Jones... or Tad: The Explorer for the non-Spanish audience. The film on it's own makes sense, but you're left with a little confusion at the beginning when you realise everyone knows everyone else.

The animation isn't particularly my sort of thing. It has the look of something you'd expect from a TV show, but generally most average animation is still good animation.

All in all it was a fun story, with some interesting characters in.

Been watching all week due to feeling under the weather and so far I'm digging it probably the best show I've watched this year thought peacemaker was probably one of the best characters from last years suicide squad movie now with his own TV show I had too see it as its now being shown in the UK. John cena is back as peacemaker now we get more human side of the character a sorter side which we don't see in the movie. And then there's the sidekick Eagley who steals it from John cena every time he's on the screen. But don't get me started on the dance the actors do during the opening credits I'm dreading the possibility of attempting said dance next month at my next convention

I was late to getting to know about this series, yet with saying that it is the first TV series which I was hooked on. In the first season we are introduced to Sam and Dean whose father is away on a hunting trip and has not returned and their mother was killed by a yellow eyed demon. Sam and Dean give up a normal life of going to collage and working in a garage and became hunters. They befriend various people along the way over the rest of the seasons , even becoming friends with an angel who will do anything to save the brothers from becoming human vessals for Lucifer and Michael. Longest running CW TV program out as the show is now in it's 13th season.

Good but bonkers
I haven't yet read Desperation, so fortunately could judge this solely on it's own merits and it's definitely one of King's better books.

It reads a lot like his other epic novels like The Stand, Needful Things etc but in a much smaller size, and it's all the better for it. The plot is interesting and your typical King story, although being based around kid's tv shows makes it a little bit bonkers. It also means that some of the book can feel a little childish at times and some times it can get a bit irritating. But that said, as always with King it's well written with some interesting and developed characters, with lots of horror and gore and just about the right length of book to fit the story. This would make a hell of a good tv show.
