A Sniper’s War

Up for some pro-Russian propaganda? I got a flick for you. Be warned, though. It’s half cool, half head-slapper. A Sniper’s War presents the story of Deki, a Serbian who enlists in the Russian backed “Ukrainian Separatist” movement that sprung up in the district between Ukraine proper and Russia...

Corrosion: Just A Taste

The first 80 minutes are free, but they tell a complete story from start to finish.  Reading this audio book the first time was a real pleasure – I’d already bought and read it before the call came down – and I like to think that my reading adds a little...

New Look Audio

The Audio Page here at the House Of Jon needed some attention.  Changes in the Castalia House sales process, and the publication of three new audiobooks in the Quantum Mortis Universe, made it necessary to do some quality control.  That’s a mighty fine looking shelf if I do say so myself....

Ember War, Issue #3

The third installment of Richard Fox’s “Ember War Saga”, adapted for comics by Jon Del Arroz and Jethro Morales, dropped for backers earlier this week, and the fun factor continues to ramp up. One minor complaint about this issue is the lack of a splash page with a couple of “the...

Long Overdue Thoughts on “Right Ho, Jeeves”

The comic omnibuses shown to the left represent the big splurge for my Christmas presents to myself.  A full review of Gun Ghoul will have to wait – the first issue in the collection piqued my interest but I’ve had a hard time picking it up since early January.  I...

The Lego Movie: A Cynical Hot Take

The Lego Movie: The Retroactively Named The First Part is a fine movie. With the sequel, The Lego Movie2 : The Second Part out in theaters now, it seemed the opportune moment to raise an issue with the underlying message of the original film.  For those that haven’t seen it...

Castalia Reviews: Honor Flight

Today I’ve got a review up for a nice little indy gem of a sci-fi book called Honor Flight.  Head on over and check it out if you’d like to know what a decent version of Old Man’s War looks like....

Current Mood: Holistic Burgers

Under increasing pressure on the home front, Team Mollison re-upped Hulu for a few months. Their primary motivation was catching up on “Bob’s Burgers” – probably the best family show on TV right now.  The show is filled with fully realized characters who grow in depth with each passing...

Happy President’s Day

I don’t trust the plan.  I trust the God Emperor.  But I trust God first and foremost, and so I celebrated this Presidents’ Day with a Rosary and request that Our Lady watch over him and guide him through the dangerous waters in which he swims.  There is truth...

Begun, The Ember Wars Have

 The talented team-up of Jon Del Arroz and Richard Fox has born its first fruits.  Those of us smart enough to back the crowdfund for the comic adaptation of The Ember War saga have received the initial offering. It lives up to the hype. The full run of 120 pages...
