We were in the local bar and we were looking at the entrance. I was standing still as I was luring the soft drinks and the broken roofs of the upfront apartment. How happy I would be if I had the chance to get up there and spend all night long listening to the quiet… Continue reading Short Story: “Crocodiles and Peanuts”
My Review Goodreads I was hesitated to give 5 stars to this George RR Martin’s short story, because as far as I am concerned there are even more powerful short stories written by him. However, I changed my mind and give it 5 stars, reminding myself not only the plot, but mainly the whole feeling… Continue reading The Lonely Songs of Laren Dorr
Recently, I watched a French movie. My expectations were low, because I am not a huge fan of the French cinematography, but I gave it a shot cause I had read some positive reviews.

As far as I’m concerned, this short story by George R.R. Martin is the definition of fantasy and horror writing of high quality. It was creepy, it was stunning and most of all, thought provoking. Kress is the main character who just returned from a vacation and all of his pets had starved to death.… Continue reading Sandkings review: A short story by George R.R Martin
Noticing after all those years that tons of people are still excited with the mythology of Middle Earth, I couldn’t help not to mention something about Tolkien, Lord of the Rings and my favorite little book of him, “The Hobbit”. We all know the story, so I will move quickly to our subject, the Linguistics… Continue reading A Journey to Tolkien’s Linguistics
