My review of Kati Marton’s book Enemies of the People: My Family’s Journey to America is available at Amazon.com here.
As I say in the review any person who did not live through the Cold War should read it.

Dr. Who The Council of Nicaea: Amazon Review

My review of the Big Finish 5th doctor adventure The Council of Nicaea staring Peter Davison, Nicola Bryant and Caroline Morris as Erimem is available at Amazon.com here.
It re-writes a bit of history but the story is very enjoyable and worth your time and money as are all the Erimem stories.

Doctor Who Terror Firma: Amazon Review

My review of Big Finish #72 Doctor Who Terror Firma Staring Paul McGann as the 8th Doctor, India Fisher as Charley Pollard, Conrad Westmaas as Crizz and Terry Molloy as Davors is available at Amazon.com here.
Doctor Who magazine voting not withstanding I have given this audio the lowest rating I’ve ever given any Dr. Who audio I’ve reviewed. It was simply dreadful.
Out of the last 8 of the new series (not counting the three latest that i don’t have yet) that I’m missing there are 3 more Charley, Crizz 8th doctor adventures. I sure hope they are better than this one or I’m steering toward a huge letdown.
If you simply MUST have it to complete your set then Mike’s Comics does carry it, but don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Atomic Obsession: Amazon Vine Review
Posted: October 28, 2009 by datechguy in amazon reviewsTags: amazon vine, iranian nukes, War on Terror
My Amazon vine review of John Mueller’s book Atomic Obsession is available at Amazon.com here.
This book was the hardest I’ve ever had to rate, the best parts are must read points that are often ignored when trying to push through bad legislation and funding and the bad parts containing revisionist history are weak.
So read this book for the good parts and note the bad parts.
