Books. And words.
Jan. 27th, 2007 10:46 pmI managed to track the Serenity novelisation finally. It disappointed. I probably shouldn't be all that surprised, but Revenge of the Sith got my hopes up, and the first two were quite decent as well. The original trilogy books had their moments ("What's a duck?" for instance), whereas Serenity is not quite an example of how not to write, but definitely of how to make awesome dialogue suck. Way to go, Keith DeCandido!
On the other hand, read Anansi Boys, and really, really liked it. Didn't think I would, after the first half, but the running from birds scene won me over (in the same way SPN won me over, lol). It was awesome, overall. Go Charlie! Go Spider!
In other news: Bill wins. Yay for Shakespeare: Return of the Author!
Riiiight. The fic. Hm. There's this, there's quite possibly the next two(?) parts planned, possibly three, a rough sketch of the ending and great big nothing in between. That's what I get for not including Reavers. *sulks* We'll see how it plays out.
( Ain't Coming Back, part 6 )
