Whoop! Whoop! Saw this at the cinema – one of only 3 movies I saw on the big screen last year – and I loved it. Michael Fassbender = *swoon*

I’m torn on the Mieville. I’ve read pretty much all of his work, and while his concepts are brilliant, I often find that they don’t quite work in the execution. Having said that, I was buoyed by the very excellent The City and The City (although then disappointed by the mediocre Kraken).

Granted! But even internet book reviewers can’t only read new releases all the time.

Hmm anything that involves wizards & swords & stuff is Sci-fantasy …..

But if you are into the Fantasy you may want to give “The Malazan Book Of The Fallen” a look according to my kid brother its great….

These didn’t come out in 2011; I am pretty sure Game of Thrones came out in 1111.
