Yep. Snatched that sucker up the SECOND I saw it available at the local Barnes n' Noble!

I devoured this novel in less than a day. Though the dialogue is almost universally crappy (through no fault of the translator, I assume, since the rest of the text is superb), the characterizations, the breakneck plot, and the wonderfully eerie concept alone is so strong this has become one of my favourite novels…

MUST. OWN. IMMEDIATELY.

Please don't fall prey to the popular misconception that "neuroscience is in its infancy" and that we "know so little about the brain." This is completely untrue. Neuroscience is well into its adolescence in that it has identified *most* of the chemicals involved in neural activity and has mapped the physical…

Wow—you just managed to combine elements of AD&D and Magic the Gathering! You, my friend, win +10,000 Geek Points and my admiration.

I wholeheartedly agree with every selection on this list.

Or maybe it's just MAGIC! It *is* a fantasy world, after all. With dragons and hot redhead babes giving birth to lichs.

Unfortunately, the plotholes are so huge even *I* don't have the imagination to fill them.

You win. This is effin' brilliant!

I'd much rather spend my money on several boxes of jimmy-hats. Much, much cheaper.

I can't believe Alex Proyas, the fella who gave us The Crow and Dark City, shat out such an utter disappointment as Knowing. That was literally one of THE stupidest movies I've ever seen...and it wasn't even Nicolas Cage's fault. The script itself was just garbage.

That is just brilliant.

Ahhh, good ol' monkshood—a.k.a. wolfsbane: keeping humans safe from werewolf activity since approximately 100 CE!

Thank the Old Gods that it wasn't the Dragon Interrabang!

Hell, let's do it! I'll gladly take part in the Mercury Demolition Effort, as long as I get to set the charges. But, chances are, I'll be digitized long before I leave the planet—I can't imagine taking my cruddy organic chassis offplanet: the support requirements are far too expensive and superfluous.

I've actually got the novel all sketched out. It's called A Memorable Fancy (based on a line from a poem by William Blake). Now all I need is the time to write the goddamned thing!

Also, show of hands: Who here thought "Charles Stross' Laundry novels" after seeing this film?

Giant ancient evil gods from below...and NO TENTACLES?! Instead we get a giant hand made of lava?! I CALL BULLSHIT. The Great Old Ones are gonna hear about this travesty and THEN we're gonna see a REAL fuckin' apocalypse!

Ben Franklin was working with Hewson on ascertaining the validity of certain assumptions made in an extensive letter written to Franklin in the middle of the century by one Victor von Frankenstein, a Genovese anatomist who claimed that Franklin's "electrickal fluid" could reanimate dead bodies.

Oops—you're right: I totally screwed that up. It should've been:
