Deep Fathom : Take A Dive Into Another Archeological Adventure With Rollins

Deep Fathom By James Rollins

Nothing much to say here. I just decided to read a bit of Rollins work after a couple mediocre books. This time it it Deep Fathom.

So what is it about? That is kind of hard to answer because it has such a convulsed plot. The story begins with a Earthquake. A earthquake so big that it effected the whole world. And when the Earthquake happens, a lost ancient city surfaces. Meanwhile a American plane crashes in the Pacific. The story focuses on two different characters. One is Karen, who is investigating the new archaeological city, trying to prove her great grandfather’s theory right about a ancient long lost city. But she is quickly pursued by a ancient order who don’t want her to research there. The second is Jack, a treasure hunter and part of a salvage crew. He is hired by the US navy to extract parts of the plane with his sub. But as he does so he finds a great crystal tower that is connected to the lost civilization. It also has energy flowing through. Jack has a enemy though. A David Spangler who works for the president, but is also working behind his back framing the crash on China starting World War III. And as the war erupts, he has personal agenda to kill Jack, (Who let his sister die long ago) who in, in a odd turn of events decided to help Karen with her research.

Well the good? Well if you’re one of those people who have been waiting for a novel adaptation of Uncharted, this is it. Like most of Rollins Books. Once the action starts, it never stops. Beside running from the feather serpent order, Spangler’s men, they must avoid the chaos of the warfare erupting around them. Things are as bad as they can get and it keeps you entertained because it is just one adventure scene after another. But Rollins did so somewhat more realistic than most authors. Unlike Clive Cussler’s novels people do get injured and die. So there is a sense of danger throughout.

The bad? The story here is silly. Though it’s all based upon theoretical science, I felt it was too theoretical to some degree. Also, there is little emotion. For this kind of story, I know it might not mean much. But sometimes, I wish the author would slow down and let us look into the character’s heads. Then there’s the magical computer Gabriel. A all knowing, all seeing super computer that serves as a character. I thought it was dumb in a sense and I wish the could have connect the dots in the story without something so magical.

Despite it flaws, it was still fun, and a absolute page turner. Still not as good as Rollins first novel, but very good in general.

Shakespeare’s Counselor: Yet Another Bland But Light Hearted Mystery

Smoothie review

Shakespeare’s Counselor By Charlene Harris

Okay I’m always looking for something new. And I decided to give Charlene Harris a try. Why? Because it seems everyone one in my family is obsessed with her True Blood series. But borrowing those books is apparently is forbidden and they must be printed in golden ink because they are super expensive. So instead of that I ended up with a Lily Bard Mystery novel called the Shakespeare’s Counselor.

So what is it about? It focuses on a woman named Lily who had clearly had a hectic past. So to clear things up, she goes to a weekly counsel group to confers and talk about her rape incident from a while ago. But at one of these meetings, Lily and the other group members discovers a body. And Lily awakens her inner detective and gets the aid of her detective boyfriend to solve the murder. It is a very straight forward plot.

So the good? It’s a fun little mystery. It never does take itself seriously. Despite that, there are some heavy issues that show up. They don’t darken the story, but strengthens the characters. The relationship between Lily and her boyfriend, Jack is believable and adorable to some extent. Yet sadly in comparisons, the rest of the characters fall flat and shallow. And like good mysteries should, it keeps you guessing until the end There was also a fun sense of sarcasm throughout.

The bad? Well I had a hard time finding out who Lily really was. I’m not sure if this is not the first book in the series or one deep into a book series. So that threw me off. It wasn’t until half way through I put together that she really just a cleaning lady and karate expert. I felt she might had been a actually detective for the longest time. But I guess that’s the price I pay for jumping into a series in the middle. There were also some elements that seemed silly and corny, like a scene where she wants to put karate moves on a man she hates. But it wasn’t anything that hurt the story too much.

Overall it’s a cute fun story. If you like Lily Bard or light hearted mysteries check it out. If you’re not one of these people, it may be a pass. Because, hey its just another mystery. There is nothing to make it different than the rest. Very Mediocre.

Cutthroat Island: A Tale Of What Could Have Been Epic Witty Fun

Cutthroat Island: A Tale Of What Could Have Been Epic Witty Fun

Cutthroat Island By John Gregory Betancourt

Yes. Another novel from church book give away. This time the novel is called Cutthroat Island and it is written by John Gregory Betancourt. Well I call it a novel, but I’m not sure it really counts. It is a novelization of the screenplay to apparently a old movie I never seen with the same title. So it is a movie tie in. I typically don’t read these things, but when i’ts free, Why not try it?

Anyways, what is the story? The story focuses on a woman pirate Morgan who upon her father’s death inherits the crew and pirate ship he once had. He was killed by her evil uncle Dawg, who is looking for Cutthroat Island and it’s mysterious treasure. Each of his brothers has a piece to the map, so the evil Dawg (who never was given any pieces) is killing his brother for these pieces. Meanwhile Morgan is trying to find the treasure first by stealing the pieces of the maps before her uncle finds them. But because the map is written in Latin, she finds she must break a Latin reading con man/thief out of prison, William Shaw. Together Will and Morgan go on a adventure to find this treasure and fight Dawg along the way.

So I’ll start with good. It’s a pirate book. There are so few of these so I’m glad when I find a pirate book in general. It also has a lot of adventure.

The bad? The book is very shallow. Both the character and story is. It moves quickly and refuses to give is detail during action scenes. There is a complete lack of ambitions and character depth. There is a subplot which is this story between Shaw and Morgan. It is so flat, empty, and emotionless. It just seems to fly out of nowhere. I wasn’t quite sure why this happened. The story had everything going for it. I’m guessing it because it is a movie tie in. And oddly enough there were typos. Not a big complaint. Often times I never do because I care more about the story than grammar. Also as a self publish author I understand how hard editing could be. But this had a lot of typos. But it was a movie tie in so I feel that there was little effort involved. Very odd.

Overall, the control story is good and fair. But the lack of detail and character development pulls it down. This makes it very mediocre when it could have been something much greater.

All That You Love Will Be Carried: Stephen King’s Theory To Who Is Writing Dirty Messages In Public Restrooms.

All That You Love Will Be Carried Away by Stephen King Smoothie Review

Since I’m reading a monster of a book, I created a way to balance my reading. (Basically because the thousand page book I”m reading right now is not all that exciting) By reading the novel Monday through Friday and short stories on the weekend I found a useful method. And the short story this time around is “All That You Love Will Be Carried Away,” by Stephen King

Given pretty and poetic nature of the title, one would thing it was a love story. But it’s not. What is it? Well to be perfectly honest, it is hard to explain, but I’ll try. A man named Aldire Zimmerman is sales man who checks into a motel in the middle of the snowstorm. Inside, he sits on the bed and pulls out a gun to kill himself, but stops to pull out his notebook to look over it one last time. The notebook is full of scribbled down puns, slings, and dirty messages that one would find written on bathroom walls. It is seven years worth of graffiti, that he is proud of and doesn’t want to let go of it, or let anyone find it after he died. So before he kills himself he goes down memory lane of all his favorite lines he wrote over the last seven years and manages to convince himself that it is a art and not insanity.

So the good? I can’t say much, other than that I kind of found it intriguing that the author was willing to share his theory on who is writing the stupid scribbles in public restrooms.

The bad? Well it basically boils down to this. It’s pointless. I’m playing the story over and over in my head, trying to find a deeper meaning and I just can’t. And the sad thing is, I think he was trying to say something deeper because the last line is just so strange. It asks us to say a prayer for all those with a life like Zimmerman. It was something that would have worked if there was something emotional in the story. But it wasn’t. The character is as shallow as possible. I wonder if Stephen King personally knew someone like this. I don’t’ know don’t know what his goal was here.

Overall, skip this. This is pointless. Unless you are someone who professionally writes profanity on bathroom walls for living, you can not relate to this character in the least. There is just nothing here.

Playground For Evil : A Retro Revamp Of A Classic That Keeps Its Charm

Playground for Evil By Broken Sea Productions

When I was really really little, I remember digging through my father’s old VHS tapes and ran across something called Kolchak: The Night Stalker. The dusty ancient tape, despite of its condition actually still played. And I found out it was this fantastic show about a investigative journalist who encounters monsters from the early seventies. And as old and dated as it was, it was a extremely fun show, that can still stand up to television today. But sadly it was something that lasted twelve episodes. But it was the show the set the mold for shows today such as X files, Miracles, Supernatural and Fringe. Nearly forty years later, I also found it has been brought back in a audio format. It’s a now a radio show, or audio book or audio drama. Take your pick. Call it what you will.

And yes. I know smoothie reviews typically are book reviews. But when I find myself on the computer for hours, editing, doing research or working on my website, it’s not all that different than a audio book is it? It’s a review on these audio stories or reviews on my favorite songs from my classic rock albums, which I think would be a big waste of your time to read. So like I said, this is a review on the audio drama on Kolchak: The Night Stalker- A Playground For Evil

Like I said before, the story centers on Carl Kolchak, a investigative journalist at the IBC newspaper who runs into monsters and such, as he gathers his story and Carl shows he is the somewhat self centered and charismatic character. He annoys those around him with his methods so much that people don’t want to even be associated with him. But he encounters a vampire in this story, that is killing people. And oh yeah. This tales place in the 1970’s.

So the good? It is such a tribute to the original show. The writing, the music and characters are fantastic. They didn’t have any of the original actors do the voice. But Monique, Mrs. Emily and his boss are as close as they could get it. And the guy who played the part of Carl Kolchak was close. Though he did not sound like Darren McGraven who originally in the TV show, he carried the character just as good as Darren did. The story is fun. Is it cheesy? Yes. In fact the whole story is dipped in cheese. But let’s admit it, the original had hints of the Scooby Doo cheesiness as well. But it will also make you crack a smile here and there as you hear one of the many jokes littered through out the witty writing. It is also a new story that is not part of the TV show.

The bad? Not much to say, other than I wish this was translated to television. I mean it was a great show and I miss it. It made me want to buy the complete series on DVD now. That and beyond the major four characters, the voice acting gets kind of flat, sounding nothing like the characters out of the original. But then again I think the listener cares for about the employees of IBC more than the chief of police or some doctor.

But overall if you loved Kolchak, you’ll love this. It had a lot of action, it’s fun, exciting, maybe a bit cheesy bit it’s something that doesn’t like itself seriously. And that’s what holds it together. It takes you along for the ride and says have fun.

The Man In The Black Suit : King’s Experiment Involving a Fisher Boy And A Devil

The Man In The Black Suit By Stephen King Smoothie Review

Surprisingly enough I have actually kind have enjoyed Stephen King’s shorts more than the novels he written in the past. Maybe it’s because they are shorter, therefore giving him less of a opportunity to over use suspense, get off topic or escape to some kind of dreamscape before returning to the actual story. Or maybe it’s because his shorts share a trait with the early Stephen King books, I actually like. Those early books were his first works before whatever spark he had, faded away over time. Anyways I could write my Stephen King conspiracy theories all day, but you don’t care. You’re reading this for the book review. This time around, the review is on the Stephen King short story, “The Man In The Black Suit” that can be found in a collection called Everything’s Eventual

As far as explanation goes, there isn’t much. It’s about a boy named Gary who lives with his family in 1914. One day he decides to go fishing to help his family. He goes down to the river out a little ways with his fishing pole. He takes a seat to fish. As he sits there fishing, the devil walks up and sits beside him. He then holds a conversation with the boy.

So the good? Well it’s different. It doesn’t really seem copied from anything else. And even though it doesn’t have much detail, there is some imagery that puts a picture that is memorable.

The bad? Well I wouldn’t call it a bad thing, but I guess to some people it would be. This short story really plays out much more like a experiment with some new ideas than a actual short. It doesn’t have a climax. I can’t even say it has a beginning, middle, and end. But unlike some of his works, the imagination didn’t seem forced. Like he sat down one day and gone “Gee I wonder” and just explored the possibilities with pen and paper as the ideas flowed through his mind. Which (as a writer myself) I feel is where some of the best writing come from this method. But enough about my opinion. You got my point. If it’s not for you, then you know already.

Overall, it’s interesting. Not spectacular. But it is intriguing. If you just like to always try new things, this is for you. If you’re looking for some dark, horrifying, twisted horror, just look somewhere else because it may have a hint of creepiness, but does not go anywhere beyond.

Ink Heart: An Intriguing, Imaginative Tale About What Happens When Books Come To Life, Literally.

Filed under: books, Entertainment, Fantasy, how to, literature, poetry, reading, Story, Uncategorized, writing — leluesrealm @ 10:27 pm

Ink Heart By Cornelia Funke Smoothie Review

A couple years ago, I watched this fantasy movie. It was something I rented having no idea of what it was. It wasn’t the best movie in the world, but it was so imaginative that no matter how much I try to forget it, it will just hang in my head because it was just so original. It was called Ink Heart. And when I found out it was based on a book, I just had to read it. I actually went out of the way to buy Ink Heart by Cornelia Funke.

The book is a story about a man named “Mo.” It is short for Mortimore who can actually read objects out and into books. And it actually begins one peaceful night when Mo and his wife Teresa are cuddling by the fire place. Mo decides to read a bit out of a story that Teresa likes called Ink Heart. But when Mo reads, objects appear like they typically do. But his wife and two house cats were sucked into the tale of Ink Heart and as a result three book characters appeared in the living room. Two of them were villains and the other is a fire wielding street performer named Dustfinger. Baffled and shocked, he tells the three that he can not control the power to send them back home. As the villains and Dustfinger leaves to this brave new world, Mo rushes to his daughter’s room and is relieved that she’s still in his world and not trapped in Ink Heart.

The book picks up many years later where things have certainly changed. The villains Basta and Capracorn are glad that they are out of Inkheart and want to control this new world they became accustomed to. But they know they can control the world so much more easily with monsters and spells out of Ink Heart. So they are desperately searching for a Silvertounge (some one who can bring things out of books), Mo in particular. They had found some that can bring people out of books in a distorted fashion. They read out many soldiers to help Capricorn. Basta and Capricorn wants one who can do it perfectly like Mo did. Knowing this Mo and his daughter Meggie are on the move never staying in place too long to elude these villains. He works as a book restorer who, along the way, is desperately hoping to find a way to get his wife back. Dustfinger meanwhile is following Mo in the distance hoping there is a way Mo can send him home even though he told him “no” many times before. Then one day Capricorn finds Dustfinger and makes a deal. If Dustfinger tells him where Mo is, then he will command Mo to read him back into the book. Desperate to go home, he agrees and sets Mo and Meggie up to be caught. Wow. That was a whole lot of exposition. Sorry about it all that. But I didn’t know how else to explain it.

So what is good? Well first I will start with the story itself. The concept is something I never seen before. It is original and kind of brilliant. Second, I have to say Dustfinger. He is just a great character. He’s not a good guy and not a bad guy either. He just wants to go home. He feels that he doesn’t belong in this world. He doesn’t want any one hurt. He just wants to go home. And he prefers to be alone. He’s the only true anti hero I have ever seen in a book. And he’s so complex. He’s a double/triple crosser with a heart that is somewhat hidden. And he wants to desperately return to a story where
…………………………………………………………..Spoiler……………………………..
he dies at the end. Only he doesn’t know it.
……………………………………………………………Spoiler………………………..

The bad? Not much to say. Well maybe a couple tiny things. One mainly being that compared to Dustfinger, Meggie and Mo are very boring characters. He literally does steal the show. And secondly Meggie and Mo are book worms. I get that. I mean I’m a book worm too, or else I would not be writing this. But their love for books was so strong that it appeared the characters have an OCD disorder. But the again it is aimed at all audiences, especially children, so I guess that this was for them. I just thought that it was kind of weird.

But with all said and done, I recommend this to anyone who likes fantasy. It’s fresh, new and well worth the read.

We’re Alive : Zombies Have Now Invaded A New Form Of Entertainment

We’re Alive – Season 1 – From The Zombie Podcast

Overall Rating: Zombies have now invaded a new form of entertainment

Okay, I won’t deny it any more. Zombies have over taken our media and you know what? People love it. People just can’t get enough of them. They invaded our video games with Resident Evil. It has just invaded TV with the premier of The Walking Dead. It’s been in horror comics for quite a while. And then they won’t get out of our movies. And I’m not just talking about American flicks. It has spread to other countries. It’s Le Horde in France. 28 Days Later in Great Britain. And Undead in Australia. And they don’t die. I mean there’s even a Undead Nightmare cowboy game. It will never go away. So now you’re probably asking why am I talking about zombies? Well because zombies have entered a new genre, which is a audio drama called We’re Alive.

You know I review books. But a audio drama or radio show isn’t that much different than a audio book. And I have to say it’s much more entertaining than a audio book in some ways. And I actually accidentally found out about, when I was listening to another podcast about a author who began by self publishing. And they wouldn’t stop talking about We’re Alive. So I looked it up.

So We’re Alive is a podcast audio drama made up of twelve or so serial episodes that make up season one. (That’s all I’m reviewing now) It starts off with three military commandos Michael, Angel and Sol who are called to help the military with riots. But it turns out that these are not people and are actually zombies. So they actually go on a run and try to survive. They meet other survivors’ and decide to live and reinforce a apartment building. They lock themselves inside as the world falls apart around them.

But as the story goes on, it goes a bit beyond the Dawn of the Dead setup. As the story goes on, the zombies are changing, hinting that they might not be zombies at all, but something else entirely. I’ll stop there, because I might spoil something. That and people who are survivors, but are not part of Angel’s Michael’s and Sol’s community are not exactly friendly and are willing to kill them for supplies. It’s a nice post apocalyptic piece.

So the good? Well it’s a zombie podcast that is a long layered story with enjoyable characters. I mean they might seem stereotypical at first, but evolve and grow on you. I mean there’s Sol who talks like “Ah man, I ain’t play’n dog.” Don’t they call that Gansta now? I don’t know. But he was the flattest character at the beginning, but became my favorite at the end. The voice acting has emotion. (This is how it’s better than a dull monotone reading of a audio book) It had a music score and sound effects. And it is told through different point of views through out the story too, making it more interesting. And it’s an episodic format. So it’s not one giant long pod cast. And it’s not just about zombies. It’s about people. Common people who are trying to survive. The think what I like the most is, the show is creating its own mythology around zombies and not just copying everyone else.

The bad? Well some voice actors did better than others. Which isn’t too bad. Except for when a certain two characters share the same scene. Angel and Michael sound the same, so I kept on getting them mixed up when they were holding a conversation.

Overall, if you like good Resident Evil (I’m talking about the games. The older ones to be more specific) or Dawn of the Dead, this is worth looking into. I know I would just listen to it as I was working on projects, and got to hear a good story as I did it. So if you like this sort of thing , it’s on itunes and just on line to listen for free.

Nickled and Dimed: This Is a Book That Teenagers Should Read Before Attempting To Rule The World

Nickled and Dimed

Overall Rating: This Is a Book That Teenagers Should Read Before Attempting To Rule The World

Typically when you’re taking a college class, and they give you a book and say you must read it by Friday, the reaction is just pure dread. Never having I enjoyed a required reading, but this one isn’t too bad. It’s called Nickled and Dimed by Barabarea Ehrenriech.

The book is non fiction. In the prologue she states that it was nothing more than a journalism project. The journalist went under cover in multiple parts of the country trying to make a living off of minimum wage. She worked as a waitress, house cleaner and then a Wal-Mart employee.

So what was good? Finally it’s a book about the hard boiled truth about making a living in America. The “land of the free” tales and “that you can be anybody you want to be” myths that we hear as kids growing are typically thrown out the window when you’re on your own working a minimum wage job. And the book reflects that greatly. I could relate so much with what she was talking about. She goes from job to job trying to survive under what seems like illegal protocols, but it’s just the way things are.

The bad, chapter three. The chapter when she was a Wal-Mart employee bugged me. She became obsessive with her job. And I’m sorry, I worked in retail for years. If there was anything I was obsessed with, it wasn’t my job. She talks about how working in clothes was so hard having to organize them every day. Here I am, with my own experience saying you don’t have it hard at all. Try working up to seven in the morning with school until one, a half hour for lunch if I got one, five hours of work, managing a warehouse, and stocking shelves, followed by cashiering two hours after that. Then I get home and then spend the whole night doing home work to go to school the next day. And mind you, I’m not including making my website, books and then in the October have to find a way to manage a small haunted house. If I got sleep I’m lucky and then everything is repeated the next day. And the little time I have I might work on my books. So to just hear her complain about working in clothing every day, when it could be so much more work just drove me nuts. I guess it’s one of my biggest pet peeves.

But overall, it’s a good read. I recommend it any American. Especially if you are a parent of teenager, or a high school or college student. And especially those of you who has a friend who says their going to go out to rule the world. Give them this. I swear every high school student should read this before moving out, because I know so many people are struggling right now with their dreams on the back burner right now. Just don’t read chapter three.

The Good Nerd Guide

Filed under: books, how to, literature, reading, writing — Tags: , , , , , — leluesrealm @ 1:57 am

The Good Nerd Guide

Some people just don’t know how to be nerdy enough to be a real nerd. So here is the first ever guide of how to get it right.

 

One of the classic nerd traits are glasses. Wear them even if you don’t have to, And don’t forget , normal people wear glasses too, so you have to make sure that they are too big for your face, and never ever forget the classic nerd glasses trade mark. The white tape around the middle

Another classic nerd item is the buck teeth. Of course only the lucky nerd are the ones with natural bucked teeth. So if you don’t have that feature, the next best thing that you can do is curl your upper lip up all the time so that it may appear so.

A nerd is never found wearing a purse or wallet any where. Most are caught wearing fanny packs. Yes. Old ladies use them. But guess what? So do nerds.

Not only you have to look like a nerd, you must submit your self to nerd only television which often include Star Trek, Battlestar Galacticca, and Stargate. (Never watch normal TV)

Now remember that you must be knowledgeable about the most useless things that no one would ever care about. (Never get this mixed up with geeks, they are usually experts in fields like chemistry and biology, unlike nerds who will know everything there is to be known about a certain level of a certain videogame.)

One more classic thing, is have the stupid laugh. Squeak. Snort. Anything, but a normal laugh to distinguish your self from normal people in the crowd.

Make sure you have a annoying trait that will bother people around you. Like chewing with your mouth open or the constant clicking or your pen.

Always remember that the video game on your Gameboy, Playstation, or what ever you have will be the center of your life. Who needs friends anyway, if you have to get Mario through Yoshi Land after school.

Always have a stupid story to tell that no one cares about, (That you repeatedly tell) so that everyone will want to avoid you.

Lastly don’t forget that in this world of nerdiness, you might not know what is going on. SO it is best to put on a “Hello My Name Is” sticker signed with you name, just in case you might get lost in you nerdy ways, and have to return to class.

 

Initiation Test: Homecoming is on it’s way, and you really want a date. Walk up to the guy/girl you to go out with and ask him/her out. If she/he:

 

a)Laugh in your face and walks away

b)Just stands there and makes fun of you

c)Acts like you aren’t there

 

Then congratulations you have officially became a the nerd, by following our How To Be A Good Nerd Guide. You have learned how to be nerdy right. Now I suggest for Home Coming, you inflate your date and show up being the biggest nerd there.
