He said, ‘Man, you were amazing’, and then he went rather quiet. “He was a man of about 40 or 50 and when I said, ‘Yes I am’, for a split second he was a child again. “A fellow came in the paper shop at 7am, he looked at me and said, ‘Are you Tom Baker?’ and I said ‘Yes, I am’. Those children who were seven or eight in 1974 are now grandparents. “The fact that they were inspired by my nonsense and heroism enchanted me. “To be a children’s hero gave me such pleasure,” he said. Tom in the 'uncompleted' episode of Doctor Who (Image: UGC) And Tom, too, has become a living legend. The Doctor, who he played from 1974 to 1981, is almost immortal as the time-travelling alien regenerates into new bodies. That same sense of fun was evident too when he played Donald MacDonald in Monarach of the Glen and when he narrated Little Britain. His big-scarfed, Jelly Baby-offering Doctor is a fans’ favourite because of that wild-eyed playfulness. To be fair, Tom still has that famous twinkle in his eyes. I live in the country and I’m old and happy and have a dog.” “Nowadays, the idea of a holiday fills me with horror. It might have been extravagant but it was real. “Ian was horrified when he realised his contempt for my acting. It just gave me that lift and I came out and made it to the side. “Suddenly, these two girls were at the side of the pool and they reached out – and I caught a leg.

However, as in Kissing the Rain (2004), Brooks has trouble tying up loose ends. Psychic Ruben can see things happening miles away, so Cole's battles with those responsible for Rachel's death are literally seen through Ruben's eyes. The author uses an interesting technique to heighten that effect. Brooks' great strength is his talent for intense description he makes readers see, feel, and smell all that Ruben does most of it coarse, disgusting, and ugly. He knows, for instance, that his ice-cold brother, Cole, is going to get into and cause trouble when he decides to go to desolate Dartmoor, where Rachel met her end. Perhaps it is his Gypsy blood that gives him second sight Ruben can see and feel things others can't. Fourteen-year-old Ruben Ford is sitting in his father's junkyard when he knows knows that his older sister, Rachel, has been raped and murdered.

American gods is a novel about the creation of American gods and the people who follow him. It’s the only safe thing I can tell her, because I’m not about to tell my young assistant that she looks so fucking gorgeous I could howl. I appreciated that she didn't hold onto her unrequited love and actually sought to free herself from it. She wasn't the usual sweet heroine but instead had vivacity. Nina had a temper but not one that got on my nerves. Whenever I think about never seeing him again, something vital inside me revolts.-Nina I liked the fact they'd both known each other for a couple years and that they both had a secret crush on the other. The characters were likable and well matched (no pun intended). It's not really an original premise but it sort of worked out for me. But one day, she receives a picture of her match's desk after asking him about his work and it's only then that she realizes he is none other than Merrick himself. Knowing that she can't have him, she decides to sign up on the Mail Order Bride program in an attempt to forget her unrequited feelings for him and seems to get along with her match thus far. Nina has been Merrick's assistant for two years and has had a crush on him since first meeting him. The stress and anxiety of what could happen, and what most likely would, hammered through me at a pace I couldn’t catch up to. I read countless pages on life expectancy, threads on the side effects of treatments and both illnesses, threads on how my body could reject the transplant, chats on how difficult it would be to get pregnant and carry to full term, topics on how the disease escalated and ultimately had the power to take the life of a loved one. Hours of researching how both diseases worked together consumed me. Then curiosity got the best of me and I explored websites that led to other websites with normal to rare outcomes. Antibiotics, steroids, blood pressure, and pain medication. I needed to know what I was up against.Īt first I started with the medications the doctors had prescribed. I knew better than to google anything, but I couldn’t not. I needed to start dialysis and get placed on a transplant list. The number four banged around inside my head, taunting me. My body ran cold and goose bumps broke out down my arms. There were five stages, and I was already at four.

Excerpt Twist (Off Balance #4) by Lucia FrancoĪll rights reserved. In the Styx, Dante finds people immersed in mud, striking one another with hands, feet, and head, as well as biting one another. Following this stream to the foot of the rocks, they come to the marsh called Styx. They cross to the other bank and find a fountain of strange, dark water, which flows in a stream down through a crack in the rock. Virgil reminds Dante that time has passed quickly and that they must descend to another circle. Their punishment is that they are rolling enormous weights at one another, the Wasters shouting, "Why do you hoard?" and the Hoarders shouting, "Why do you waste?" After they clash, the souls hurry their weights back again, only to repeat the action, all the while screaming. Plutus collapses, falls to the ground, and the poets pass.ĭante gets his first glimpse of Circle IV, the circle for the Wasters and the Hoarders. Dante and Virgil enter the fourth circle and are stopped by the raging Plutus, but Dante then chastises Plutus as he has chastised the monsters in previous circles. Once she starts exploring on her hunting missions, Deuce finds that the stories she has been told about life outside the enclave may not be as true as she thought. Deuce is paired up with Fade, a boy who grew up topside. She now must hunt for food and fight any flesh eating zombie like “Freaks” that get in her way. Deuce has just completed the naming ceremony and has chosen the huntress path. Once they are named, they can then choose the title of breeder, builder or hunter. The human life span is now very short, and only if the children (called “Brats”) make it to age fifteen do they even get an official name. In this post apocalyptic world the remaining survivors are living in underground tunnels. The protagonist Deuce is a brave huntress trying to find the right path in an uncertain world. Enclave paints a bleak world, with evolved “freaks” and hidden dangers lurking around. Overall I think the premise is good and the fast paced, action packed story seems to be heading down an interesting path. While I liked the story, I didn’t love the audiobook narration. I took a chance on the audiobook and I’m not sure this was the best decision.
