Though not as Gaiman-y as one of his original novels, these retellings of, yeah, Norse Myths were just as gripping, entertaining, and vivid-ly written. So, yeah, Gaiman-y.

Thought this was going to be a small but exciting / engaging story, and it was — until it opened up towards the end and man, the implications. So good.

I'm enjoying the new version of #Quake2 the way I enjoy all faithful remasters of old games: with nostalgia in my heart, and a wish they'd updated everything in my head.

Well, this certainly started off with a bang. Er, bangs.

Wait, do chests go "bang" when they explode outward?

His earlier #plays were better (at least to read; maybe they were better when performed). Too many of these were overly clever and smirk-ing-ly self-aware.

Despite what the title suggests, Honey Watson's new novel "Lessons In Birdwatching" isn't an instruction manual; it's a sci-fi story...with some birdwatching. Why? Find out in this exclusive interview.
