Cyn Armistead (14 KP) rated Night Child (OSI, #1) in Books

Jes Battis | 2008

Book Rating
I really enjoyed this book, and hope Battis returns to this world. His prose is lyrical, engaging—a major departure from most of the urban fantasy genre. There were a few little consistency blips that made me think that the book had been edited with less care than it deserved, but they didn't detract seriously from the plot.

8.3 (14 Ratings)
Book Rating
Julie Kagawa is one of the only authors who actually seems to be able to write a decent urban fantasy series. While this isn't going to have the same level of depth as something like LotR, this series is still a fun read with interesting and memorable characters. Would definitely recommend this over Wicked Lovely or Beautiful Creatures.

Iceberg Slim, Irvine Welsh | 2009 | Biography
(0 Ratings)
Book Favorite

"This biography, written with a novelist’s stylization, was an incendiary moment in western culture. Ironically, it became the weapon that would win the cultural wars for dispossessed black, urban America. It’s impossible to think of what street culture of white Hollywood would look like without it. Slim is the most influential writer in English since Shakespeare."

Movie Favorite Watch

"That was the first movie that I saw that I felt really painted the picture of the gritty hardcore realities of the urban drug culture. Done in a way that made it palatable for mainstream audiences. It was glossy and it was like that black version of an Italian mafia film. But I dug it for those reasons."
