Starmaker olaf5/30/2023 Thus, there were times when I was not enjoying myself as much as I would have liked, despite being in almost constant awe of the writer's imangination. The detailed descriptions of each successive species of humanity and the trials and tribulations that befall them can become a bit tedious. The reason that the book, for all its amazing inventiveness, does not get 5 stars is because the narrative, at times, can be very, very dry. Through those 18 iterations, we see everything from giant-brained "superminds" to genetically-engineered supermen to aquatic fishmen and much, much more. During that period humanity evolves through what Olaf describes as 18 different species of men (our present being the "First Men" of the title). Written in the 1930's, this is a future history that tells the story of mankind over a span of 2 billion years (yes billion with a B) from 1930 until approximately the year 2,000,000,000. I can not believe I have not heard more about this book as being one of the true "classics" of science fiction. WOW, this book is in a class all by itself for originality, imagination and scope. This review is only for Last and First Men as I have not yet read Star Maker.Ĥ.0 stars.

Zenith morrison5/30/2023 It was mysterious, dark and crammed full of symbolism that I couldn’t yet (and still today do not quite) understand. It was unlike anything I had read up to that time. I first encountered Grant Morrison’s work around 1989 or 1990 when I picked up his Batman hardcover graphic novel Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth. These books changed forever the ways that comics are both read and written. The results of course were Watchmen (Moore), Sandman (Gaiman), Stormwatch and The Authority (Ellis) and many of the books that are included in this annotated bibliography. Along with fellow UK comic book writers Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman and Warren Ellis, he was approached by DC comics in the 1980’s to revitalize their properties and inject some “new blood” into mainstream American comics, which had become pretty stale and rote by that time. Grant Morrison is one of the most acclaimed and controversial comic book writers of the past twenty years. Rather, it is a (very amateurish) attempt at cataloging stories by Morrison where certain themes seem to be present as well as and authors that have influenced these themes. **note** This is in no way a comprehensive list of the books Grant Morrison has written.

Jackson brodie5/29/2023 From the first novel Case Histories to her long awaited fifth in the series Big Sky, we are let into the world of this slightly world weary PI. The Jackson Brodie novels were the first Kate Atkinson books I bought, one at a time as they were published. Surrounded by death, intrigue and misfortune, his own life haunted by a family tragedy, Jackson attempts to unravel three disparate case histories and begins to realise that in spite of apparent diversity, everything is connected… To Jackson Brodie, former police inspector turned private investigator, the world consists of one accounting sheet – Lost on the left, Found on the right – and the two never seem to balance. In Case Histories we’re in a Cambridge that’s sweltering, during an unusually hot summer. It’s the sort of novel you have to start rereading the minute you’ve finished it’ Guardian ‘An astonishingly complex and moving literary detective story that made me sob but also snort with laughter. A feast of snakes by harry crews5/29/2023 Crews' literary landscape always proves interesting.
