Brian Dixon and 1 other person liked Bryn Grover's review of The Ceremonies:
The Ceremonies by T.E.D. Klein
"This remains my favorite horror book of all time. I have a well worn hardback from the 80s which get re-read every once in a while. In this case, it was the audio version I listen to. Starting with the tale "Events at Poroth Farm" Klein built this up" Read more of this review »
Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast by Brian A. Dixon
"007 Has Never Looked This Deep (or This Delicious)
This book peels back Bond’s perfectly tailored suit to reveal the juicy secrets beneath—smart, sassy, and sharper than a martini glass rim!

Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast by Brian A. Dixon

Columbia & Britannia by Adam Chamberlain
“Susanna spoke of divergent paths that lead to a distant horizon, of fate and destiny and myriad potentialities for glory or doom. She spoke of facing one’s future without choice. Truly, it is not hard to fathom that at that precise instant in history something as minute as the cool February wind blowing upon my cheek from the west or the sinking of my boot in that shifting Virginia mud had the potential to change my life forever. When a bullet slices through the air towards a man he sees those phantom paths flickering in gun smoke before him. There is hope, there is chance and there is death.”

Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast by Brian A. Dixon
“In those early novels, Fleming informs us that Bond feels ‘he must play the role… expected of him. The tough man of the world. The Secret Agent. The man who was only a silhouette.’ To those who have marveled at his adventures during the last half-century, James Bond is far more substantial than a mere silhouette. His is the body through which we realize and interpret our greatest fears and desires.”
