Spock is a character in the Star Trek series, played by late actor Leonard Nimoy. ![]() In 1975, when he was embarking on a post-Star Trek career, Nimoy published an autobiography with the tongue-in-cheek title I Am Not Spock.

I know feel betrayed, because I really liked the Pandora series when I was a child and now I wonder if I have gotten dumb with age or if I just didn't get what I was reading back then to the point that I hallucinated a whole new narrative and feel. It's funny that as I was preparing to read the series again, my memories of it from my early teens were corrupted by my own desires, mixed up with Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, muddled by all I have read since. ![]() It was like all of the pretentious stuff from Dune got concentrated in Pandora and expanded upon by the contribution of Bill Ransom. ![]() I am going to go ahead and assume I didn't really understand it, but the important thing is that I didn't enjoy it. A book filled with religious allegory and heavy philosophy about the definition of being human and the essence of religious worship and violence, it was so heavy that I had to make a lot of effort to finish it. I already said while reviewing Destination: Void that I did not like the direction the story was going in the end, so it should be no surprise that I didn't like The Jesus Incident. ![]() ![]() ![]() My Policeman is a deeply heartfelt story of love's passionate endurance, and the devastation wrought by a repressive society. ![]() Forster had with a policeman, Bob Buckingham, and his wife.

My Policeman is a deeply heartfelt story of loves passionate endurance, and the devastation wrought by a repressive society. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As one free-state partisan grumbled in 1857, “Kansas is now governed partly by a military despotism, partly by an outside oligarchy, under the form of the most unlimited democracy” (153). Kansans’ duelling efforts to govern themselves intersected and at times conflicted with the federal government’s attempts to administer the territory and to keep the peace among feuding settlers. In what Ponce evocatively calls “a flurry of self-government,” Kansas settlers representing competing interests (especially on the question of whether to allow slavery in the territory) held numerous censuses, elections, and constitutional conventions (5). The political travesty did not stem from a lack of governance but from an excess of it. Ponce goes beyond the blood to examine the failures in governance that allowed violence to scourge Kansas territory in the 1850s, setting the stage for the even bloodier American Civil War. The territory west of Missouri (a slave state) and south of Nebraska (which leaned toward being free) most often figures into nineteenth-century history as “Bloody Kansas.” In this illuminating book, Pearl T. ![]() ![]() □ Loved the ending, now that is teamwork! No more damage and the problem gets solved. OK, still a bit odd that you let your underage kid just do all these things, but hey I will take it. □ I loved that the dad supported her ideas. □ It is an interesting idea that one can hold water with their hair and it doesn’t matter how much water it is. □ Despite some issues, I did like that she was brave to accept that job and help those people out. How she wasn’t lonely and how he wasn’t lonely either. I loved how they bonded and how he stuck with her throughout her journey. □ The friendship between the spiky boy and our MC. ![]() I just was confused throughout the story. Well, the plan was good/eh, but in the end it was sadly mostly eh. ![]() Not to mention flooded towns, friendship, and more! I was in! The premise sounded really interesting, a girl whose hair attracts water and she can apparently drag water along without any difficulty. I received this book from Netgalley/the publisher in exchange of an honest review. ![]() ![]() ![]() This volume features an introduction by Howard Chaykin. This first of a two-volume collection was reproduced from proofs in black and white rather than the colour of the original comics, but Toth himself provided separations for a grey halftone tint to add some extra visual juice to the art, and the pages look superb. Despite his annoyance, Toth produced marvellous strips, which almost manage to make the reader forget how dull the material is. He disliked a lot of what he had to draw, and especially didn’t like this television Zorro wearing a cape, which didn’t have much logic to it as far as he was concerned. Toth did his best to make the visuals interesting, but he was handcuffed to pedestrian stories and even with his incredible talents there was only so much he could do. ![]() The scripts came from the writers of the Walt Disney TV show who followed the same very talky and static style that television budgets demanded. What initially seemed like a dream assignment soon turned into a slog. Between 19 Alex Toth drew eighteen stories for Zorro comics. The covers were photographs of the star, Guy Williams, but the insides were all strips. Alex Toth’s art director at the producers of Dell Comics, knew Toth was a fan of the 1940 Mark of Zorro film starring Tyrone Power, and handed him a script for the Four Color comic, a licensed TV tie-in adapting stories from the show. ![]() In 1957 the Walt Disney studios television version of Zorro began airing on television. ![]() ![]() ![]() To make matters worse, Shannon’s eccentric and opinionated grandmother moves in with her and her mom after a fluke house fire.
