Historia5 out of 5 stars 3
For Jackey Neyman Jones (who played Debbie in Manos: The Hands of Fate), the “worst movie ever made” is, at its heart, a home movie that just happens to be shared with the world. Equal parts memoir/family saga/film book, Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate shares the behind-the-scenes story of the making of Manos: from creator Hal Warren’s alleged bet with TV producer Stirling Silliphant that “anyone could make a movie”, to the tragic suicide of John Reynolds (Torgo), right up through the newest Manos-related projects that are carrying the film into the digital age.

A fantastic heartfelt story
Revisado: 11-13-23
I truly enjoyed this wonderful book. I’m big fan of MST3K and I love the Manos episode. For me the Manos film has an uncanny kind of magic that keeps me coming back to watch it again and again. Reading this book gave me a fabulous in-depth look and great appreciation for all that happened behind the scenes and behind the people and events that occurred before, during, and after the creation of the Manos movie. Jacky Neyman Jones gives a heartfelt reading and tells her story with equal parts grace, power, and humor. If you’re a fan of MST3K and cult films I highly recommend this marvelous insightful book.

For three nerve-wracking years, Naveed Jamali spied on America for the Russians, trading thumb drives of sensitive technical data for envelopes of cash, selling out his own beloved country across noisy restaurant tables and in quiet parking lots. Or so the Russians believed. In fact this young American civilian was a covert double agent working with the FBI. The Cold War wasn't really over. It had just gone high tech.

I enjoyed this book. It’s well written and tells a good spy story. It made me wonder… for every “in house spy” they catch, how many get away scot-free?

Anyone familiar with H. P. Lovecraft's work knows of the Necronomicon, the black-magic grimoire he invented as a literary prop in his classic horror stories. There have been several attempts at creating this text, yet none stand up to Lovecraft's own descriptions of the Necronomicon...until now. Fans of Lovecraftian magic and occult fiction will delight in Donald Tyson's Necronomicon, based purely within Lovecraft's own fictional universe, the Cthulhu Mythos.

A dark and fantastical read
Revisado: 03-16-21
Fans of weird and dark Lovecraftian fiction will truly enjoy this book. Donald Tyson expertly captures the tone and flavour of ancient grimoires and arcane secrets hidden deep in the graves of long dead wizards. Matt Godfrey does an excellent job of bringing the strange language of the Old Ones to life, without actually summoning any malevolent spirits... or at least I hope not.

When The Sandman, also known as Lord Morpheus - the immortal king of dreams, stories and the imagination - is pulled from his realm and imprisoned on Earth by a nefarious cult, he languishes for decades before finally escaping. Once free, he must retrieve the three “tools” that will restore his power and help him to rebuild his dominion, which has deteriorated in his absence.

Absolutly fantastic audio version of The Sandman. I read the original comic books back in the 1980s and these audio dramas brought a whole new way to enjoy my favourite stories. Fabulous professional production quality makes for a very satisfying listening experience.

Great book for independent authors. It gives an excellent overview of all you’ll need to know as you enter the self publishing market. It really teaches you think for yourself in a down to earth, nuts and bolts way about how to “make it” as an independent. The road will be long and difficult, but this book will help show you the way.

Brilliant and beautiful
Revisado: 12-04-18
I truly enjoyed every word of this wonderful book. It’s the kind of story that you love and dread at the same time. You love it because it’s so damned good but you dread it because you know the more you read the closer you come to it’s end. I am so happy that I was able to live, for a time, in this delicious, beautiful world. l know that I will re-read this book many times so I can revisit its magical lands and fascinating characters.
