The man. The music. The Legend. I have been a fan of Al since the beginning. Listening to his music makes my days brighter, my life better, and even gives my teeth a fine, effervescent glow...Anyway, every few years, Al... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~443572063876 Wed, 3 Sep 2008 16:06:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_443572063876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_423837601412?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - Refugee, the first volume of the Bio of a Space Tyrant series by one of my most (Incarnations series) and least (Mode series) favorite authors, Piers Anthony, is, in a word, depressing. That is not to say it isn’t well written, because it is. It’s... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~423837601412 Fri, 28 Mar 2008 04:05:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_423837601412?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_423612485252?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - This is the second novel of the mode series, and it is much worse than the first! The same cast of characters return here: Darius, Provos, Colene, and Seqiro, and a new one is added, Nona. The story features Nona predominently. The mathematical... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~423612485252 Wed, 26 Mar 2008 13:44:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_423612485252?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_422674665092?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - Full Moon Fever is Tom Petty&#146s first, and arguably best, solo album. It came in the midst of the Traveling Wilburys (some even refer to it as Volume 2 of that great super groups albums) and before Mary Jane&#146s Last Dance. Written primarily... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~422674665092 Wed, 19 Mar 2008 05:03:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_422674665092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_422674468484?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - Question Quest, the fourteenth Xanth novel, is all about that quintessential character, Good Magician Humfrey. This is the second Xanth novel to be told in the first person, and to be bookended by a third person mini-story. This one concerns... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~422674468484 Wed, 19 Mar 2008 04:34:59 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_422674468484?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_422674271876?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - Ah, the Xanth series. These novels take me back to a simpler, happier time in my life when I was just getting into science fiction and fantasy. I had read the Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Narnia and was looking for something new... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~422674271876 Wed, 19 Mar 2008 04:18:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_422674271876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_422671191684?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - There is a pop, followed by hiss. The steady hum of a drive belt quietly presents itself as the mechanical arm brings the needle onto the first groove of the solid black vinyl record. In a moment, the sound of a sweet harmonica plays.

This movie from 1984 boasts a great story line, exquisite special effects, and an all star cast,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~422390632068 Mon, 17 Mar 2008 01:48:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_422390632068?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_422390107780?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - On a Pale Horse, the first novel of the eight part Incarnations of Immortality series by Piers Anthony is an excellent book for what it is. It is, of course, nothing but entertainment and idle fantasy with a hint of sci-fi thrown in for... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~422390107780 Mon, 17 Mar 2008 01:32:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_422390107780?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_422285315716?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author chronosnorton - Ah, the sophomore effort from Oingo Boingo. Danny and company are at their jazz inflected best for this release.
