In My Own Words:
I have a huge passion for music, movies, and books (thus, my active participation in reviewing things here). My next novel is "Stolen Lives" and it'll be available August 1, 2006 from River Oak. I'm also the author of the Christian fiction novel _Portal_, with three more novels in the works. My website is www.BrianReaves.net. Favorite authors are John Grisham, Frank Peretti, and James Byron Hug… Read moreI have a huge passion for music, movies, and books (thus, my active participation in reviewing things here).

Ray Bradbury remains the master of the short story. Unfortunately, Ray's last collection of new stories, "One More For the Road" was a big disappointment to most Bradbury fans.

Unfortunately, they give you no idea where your delivery is supposed to go, so you frantically search all the buildings inside and out to find them (HINT: there is a family seated in an apartment in the last building waiting for the pizza. You can only reach them through the air ducts). That's a little frustrating, but the rest of the game gets… Read more
