- Beowulf (2007)
[4/10]
"The low quality animation made me feel like I was watching a cut scene from a video game. For the entire film, I kept getting the feeling that at any moment the cut scene would end, and I would have to take up the game controller to battle the monsters."
- Fablehaven: Grip of the Shadow Plague by Brandon Mull (2008)
[7/10]
"The slow-moving first half of the book disappointed me, but I still find the Fablehaven books one of the most interesting and well-written adventure series around."
- Fablehaven: Rise of the Evening Star by Brandon Mull (2007)
[8/10]
"Kendra and Seth expect to spend their next summer vacation helping out at Fablehaven, a mystical preserve for magical creatures tended by the kids' grandparents. But problems for Kendra and Seth start even before their summer vacation begins."
- Fablehaven by Brandon Mull (2006)
[6/10]
"Mull has written a fairly decent modern-day fantasy story that possibly could have had a fairly good chance at hitting the bestseller lists if Mull had worked with a national publishing house."
- Practical Demon-Keeping: A Comedy of Horrors by Christopher Moore (1992)
[5/10]
"Christopher Moore's Practical Demon Keeping reads like a movie treatment. You get just enough detail about the characters to understand what they would wear and give them sufficient motivation to make their actions believable, but you never get enough depth about any single character to really make an attachment -- or even really care much about what happens."
- Screwtape Letters, The by C. S. Lewis (1942)
[6/10]
"Lewis uses transcripts of demonic conversations as a satire to examine humane nature."
Average score: 6.00
