I'm starting up Rage, the first novel in a follow-up series to Jonathan Maberry's Joe Ledger series. After 10 novels in the original series, the Department of Military Science - the Delta Force-like group the US sends out to deal with zombie outbreaks, vampires, aliens, and the like - has...

I'm two days into a four-day weekend. (Yesterday was a wraparound military down day for Monday's Labor Day, and civilians were automatically granted a day off if they burned the requisite 8 hours of leave; I chose to do so.) I currently have four farewell caricatures on my plate, and I had two...

We ran through two short adventures today. The first: Stranded pixies torment local townsfolk. The second: Mongrelfolk threatened by dregworms, wererat. Johnathan

This past week was another week-long business trip, so I had plenty of time for reading. I finished Chuck Grossart's The Gemini Effect which was really well-written (and you could tell the author had a military background by how well the military parts read), and had a point not quite at the...

Your Plague Dog badge is giving me Sutekh vibes (from the Fourth Doctor Doctor Who episode, "Pyramids of Mars"). "Your evil is my good..." Johnathan
