Read MoreWho’s ready for the apocalypse say “I”! While Heaven and Hell have both been gearing up for this big show-down since time began, not everyone is on the same page. Turns out that a demon (Crowley) and an angel (Aziraphale) have grown to quite like life here on Earth. They’re not at all ready to have everything end in a blaze of glory. Furthermore, they’re
Read MoreStar Wars: Inquisitor Rise of the Red Blade by Delilah S. Dawson is the newest addition to the Star Wars library. I have been looking forward to this book for months and it did not disappoint. It covers my favorite time period in Star Wars, the prequels and post-Order 66.

If your kids are already growing bored with summer vacation and tossing them outside isn’t a good option in your area then give them some comics to read! Guaranteed 30 minutes of peace. And
Read MoreAt just ten years old, she was the sole survivor of a massacre that killed her entire family and toppled her country. In the time since then, Sylvia has built a new life for herself. Far away from her home country, she has a job, friends, and simple hopes for her future. But her past is never far away. If anyone ever discovers who she
Read MoreOff Route 13, down a long, overgrown drive, sits an old decaying mansion. Within the mansion are winding halls, stairs to nowhere, and doors that are best left closed. The rooms are filled with items that tell the tales of the 999 guests. In charge of all these artifacts and tales is Amicus Arcane. Of course, it’s great to curate these tales, but it’s even
