Magician’s End by Raymond E. Feist

After 29 books and 30 years, the Riftwar Cycle finally comes to an end. Finishing the last book in a series, particularly a long series is always so incredibly bittersweet, especially for a cherished series that I grew up on. Obvious statement: Magician’s End is the last book in a pretty long series. If you … Read more

Missed Connection…

Dear ‘Valdus’, I apparently came across your StreetPass twice while I was on vacation in the midwest. The second time was in the Milwaukee airport on this past Tuesday when we were preparing to fly back home. The first time must have also been in the Mikwaukee airport on the previous Tuesday when we were … Read more

Summer Movies and Other Things

Hmmm, I wrote this bit earlier: Is there even anything noteworthy coming out in the near future? On second thought, it’s actually been a fairly release heavy quarter so far.
