I have seen a little of Bruce Lee’s work as an actor, but not much and I’m certainly not a big Bruce Lee fan. Having said that, I really love this book; so if I, as someone who isn’t a Bruce Lee fan, love this book then fans of Mr. Lee should be doing cartwheels over it. Really, it’s pretty awesome (as these kinds of … Continue reading The Treasures of Bruce Lee Review
Liberation is the third of the Dead Space graphic novels (and only the second that I have read). This one serves as a prequel to Dead Space 3, a game which I do not yet have myself, but one that our Features Editor Eric W. award three-out-of-four stars to in his PC review a couple of days ago. This first I read (and reviewed here) … Continue reading Dead Space Liberation Review
Day 46 of the QDR brings us another graphic novel, video game tie-in: Dead Space Salvage. The story is set in between Dead Space and Dead Space 2 and involves a group of illegal miners salvaging the Ishimura. Is it worth reading? Continue reading Dead Space Salvage Review

Think you can’t learn economics? Think again! Peter Schiff’s book “How An Economy Grows and Why It Crashes” breaks down economics to a level anyone can understand and reveals the common sense approach that is Austrian economics. Read the review in the 17th QDR! Continue reading How An Economy Grows and Why It Crashes Review
Jimmy Snuka’s prime as a wrestler was a few years before my time; my earliest memories of seeing the Superfly in action was during his early 90s WWF run where he was a solid mid-card act. As I got older and was able to acquire tapes and eventually the Internet, I was able to see some of Snuka’s older stuff from the late 70s to … Continue reading Superfly The Jimmy Snuka Story Review
This is the final volume, so far, of the French comics to be released in English (all three volumes were just released in English back in October). A fourth volume came out in November in French titled “Hawk.” After finishing this volume, I really hope it doesn’t take another two volumes to come out before the series is printed in English again as I am … Continue reading Assassin’s Creed – 3 Accipiter Review
If you read my review yesterday of the first volume, then you know this is really where this series of graphic novels begin a serious departure from the storyline we play in the Assassin’s Creed games. Yes, the characters we met in the first game (Desmond and Lucy) and the second game on (Rebecca and Shaun) are all present but things are way out of … Continue reading Assassin’s Creed – 2 Aquilus Review
This is first volume of the French comic/graphic novel series of Assassin’s Creed books. This volume starts off with Subject 16 and an ancestor named Aquilus, but it’s very much about Desmond and Altair. It tells how Desmond was kidnapped and came to be at Abstergo, and shows some key missions of Altair’s. For the most part, this volume follows the events of the first … Continue reading Assassin’s Creed – 1 Desmond Review
Willie Nelson is an undeniable American legend of Country-Western music. But there has always been more to Willie than his music; he’s an actor, a writer, and an advocate for several causes. He has written a few books before, both non-fiction and fiction, including an autobiography. This book is “musings from the road,” and that’s quite accurate. The book is completely random and has the … Continue reading Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die Review
Author: David Thomas Roberts This was a review copy, provided at no cost to the reviewer. It should be duly noted right out at the forefront of this review that this is definitely a very in your face kind of book as it relates to its political dealings. Unashamedly, it’s a tin foil hat wearing, ‘right wingers’ kind of book mixing elements of current events … Continue reading Review: Patriots Of Treason
With Election Day just a few hours away, it’s the perfect time to sit down and read a book that does a great job of showing just how useless politicians are and how corrupt many of these people are. This book is packed with tales of stupid public servants, corrupt elections, the idiocy of voters, and any other “wacky and unbelievable” thing you can think … Continue reading Dead Man Wins Election Review
Tolkien’s World is the “unofficial and unauthorized guide to Tolkien’s Middle-earth.” To start off with, this is a beautiful hardcover book. It’s big too, and I don’t mean in terms of page count. It’s 11.8×10.4×0.5 inches. It isn’t just pictures and paintings though, it’s really more of a brief encyclopedia of all things “Middle-earth” related. It’s broken up into three sections: “The Free Peoples,” “The … Continue reading Tolkien’s World – A Guide to the Peoples and Places of Middle-earth Review
The word “encyclopedia” isn’t mentioned anywhere in the title, but don’t let that fool you. Legends of Pro Wrestling is a wrestling encyclopedia, and a darn good one at that. There hasn’t been many attempts at a wrestling encyclopedia, and outside of the WWE produced one none have been a “must have” for anyone remotely interested in pro wrestling history. Legends of Pro Wrestling however … Continue reading Legends of Pro Wrestling Review
You may know Charles Ferguson as the director and writer of the 2010 Academy Award winning documentary Inside Job, which examined the financial crisis from 2007-2010. If you watched that documentary and liked it and agreed with it, then this book is for you. Predator Nation is essentially a book follow-up/extension to Inside Job. It’s also a book the left will love and eat up … Continue reading Predator Nation Review
