Such a letdown

2019-06-26-such-a-letdown

Damn: I absolutely loved Daniel O'Malley's The Rook, but if this scathing review is to be believed, the new television adaptation has removed nearly all of what I enjoyed about the book and replaced it...

Weekly Book Giveaway: The Rook, by Daniel O'Malley

2016-01-11-weekly-book-giveaway-the-rook-by-daniel-omalley

This week's Book Giveaway is Daniel O'Malley's 2012 novel The Rook, which we recently learned is being developed as a TV series by Twilight author Stephenie Meyer. Meyer clearly knows what she's doing, because it's evident from the first chapter that this book is going to make for some great TV...
