Book and Movie Reviews

I’ve decided to post my future reviews on this site rather than at Amazon.com, where I’ve been placing them for the last few years.

I will include links to the products when they are sold on Amazon, and I hope readers will forgive this bit of commercialism. But I promise not to give items good reviews in the mere hope that someone will buy it from my site, netting me all of a quarter in many cases!
That’s actually a typical commission for many Amazon products, believe it or not.

If anyone wants me to review a book or film, theirs or someone else’s, send me a message. I will not purchase anything for review purposes. That was one of the things about Amazon that was annoying; writers would often request that I review their book, and then expect me to order it as well. The truth be told, I’m one of those poor, or maybe just very cheap bibliophiles who very seldom actually buys a new book.

Subjects I’m interested in include metaphysics, fantasy, philosophy, good contemporary fiction, social theory and media studies.

Reviews will be mixed up with the rest of the posts here, so don’t expect any kind of coherent order. I and when there are enough of them, I’ll compile a list of reviews to make it easier to look them up.
