  • Virtual sociability: From Community to Communitas on May 11, 2011
    star star star
    This is a first blush review to give momentum to a highly interesting collection of papers from a number of perspectives concerning social networks, blogging and online communities. Aquinas was one of the first thinkers to adapt Aristotle's idea of civitas to examine the city as a place where humans can come together to do good things, beneficial to all and to the cultivation of virtue. What does the virtual civitas hold for us? Marketeers, anthropologists, sociologists and and those paying attention to the future-in-the-present that is the social world wide web will find this a useful work. "The book is, however, more than a one-way information pipeline. You are invited to join and participate in the online community that is connected to the book," to quote one of the editors, Sorin Adam This 'ubibook' is intended to reflect its subject-matter and invites collaboration, it wants to expand and multiplicate as well as multiply. It is truly an interesting question: Book where goest thou as information bursts out from every direction? I give three stars for now until I have more fully digested the work.
  • Ouija Be My Friend? - Horror and Mystery Short Story on July 02, 2011
    star star star
    Not bad at all. Too much dialogue for this reader but the story flows and is quite creepy. The characterisations lack a certain authenticity and there needs to be just a bit more attention to fleshing out the characters but the story ticks along nicely. Well worth a quick free read and the author, if he gets characterisation nailed, may make it up there with the Stephen Kings of this world.
  • The End of the Circus on July 24, 2011

    Quality prose. Young romance, night atmospheres beautifully and realistically evoked.
  • My Dream as a Reality on Sep. 10, 2011
    star star star star
    Fascinating. There is a sense of deep philosophy behind this romantic story.

    Didn't love it but 'twasn't a bore: one can see that the writer is very affable and that he has a flowing style that probably works well in his fantasy stuff. I'm not really a fantasy reader but for affability and readability, through this pleasant story, I hope the very best for the author.
  • Beyond the Veil on Sep. 13, 2011
    star star star star
    Well-written and intriguing but just a fraction drawn out. It could do with a little less action and perhaps more emotional exploration of the central characters. It does however echo some interesting metaphysical ideas of a medieval Christian nature that are well worth examining and exploring.
  • The Lawyer on Sep. 15, 2011
    star star star
    Somewhat idealistic ultimately. The realism of the story, set in England, with the mention of prices in pounds, Waitrose pies, expensive suits and so on, is enjoyable, as are some of the internal debates the central character has with himself. A three and a half.
  • We Don’t Plummet Out of the Sky Anymore on April 04, 2012
    star star star
    Well written but more plot would have been good. The writing can only be faulted because it is a little dialogue heavy. Thicker plotting would have burnished the good writing. A three point eight.
