By way of Insta, Great But Forgotten.
I was more than a little skeptical when I saw his entry. But when I clicked over and saw that they had covered
- The film version of A Simple Plan.
- The works of John Brunner, including The Shockwave Rider.
- Bedazzled (the original)
And all on the first page of the site, I pretty much said to myself, “Yeah, these guys are worth keeping an eye on.”
Then I kept clicking. Screaming Yellow Zonkers! Ellery Queen! And Tom freakin’ Reamy! (I haven’t read Blind Voices, but I have read San Diego Lightfoot Sue and Other Stories.) Yeah, if these guys are willing to go that deep, I’ll trust them on a lot of stuff. (Okay, I do have a quibble or two. I don’t think Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein was all that and a bag of chips, though I agree it wasn’t horrible.)
I could waste hours here. Indeed, I think I already have. But, you know, when someone singles out Night of the Comet, attention must be paid.
Yeah, that’s some good stuff there. I added him to my reader as well.
I keep going through and finding more stuff that makes me go “Wow, these guys are GOOD!”
He Walked By Night. Only Yesterday. Microbe Hunters.
In the immortal words of Butch, “Who are these guys?”
“These guys” are me. I’m glad you’re enjoying my blog.
