Have mixed feelings about this one. Some of the were really good, but some were gimmicky.

Thanks to "The Last Of Us," mold is having a moment. Which brings me to my new interview with Andrew F Sullivan, author of the novel "The Marigold," in which (among other things) a sentient mold is ruining Toronto.

More sedate than the first one, but just as interesting, and a really good middle to this trilogy. On to book 3.

First book of his that I've read; really interesting so far.

Though not based on their best movies, or even all of the new ones, the virtual pinball tables in the ""Godzilla Vs. Kong Pack" for "Pinball FX" are still as fun as a barrel of monkeys ... fighting a barrel of lizards. Here's the link to my review.

As compelling and unexpected as it was unique and smart. On to book 2.

I know it's not one, but these super short, thematically-connected, untitled were so good that I read this like it was an epic poem.

Thanks to Marvel, DC, and "Star Trek," the multiverse (as the kids would say) is having a moment. But for those who prefer alternate realities in prose form, there's the new anthology "Multiverses," which you can learn more about in this exclusive Q&A with editor Preston Grassman.

Strong stuff, especially the ones at the beginning.
