    Starsight: The Complexity of Space Wars

    Don’t worry. After this, I won’t be talking about any Sanderson books for a few months. At least not until ‘The Rhythm of War’ comes out later this year. While I did have my criticisms, I ultimately did enjoy Skyward. It was an enjoyable bit of sci-fi with some strong characters and world-building. So, going…

    Devils Part 4: Osyluth, the Bone Devil (Best of the Bestiary)

    Fixing Dragon Ball Z’s Buu Saga (Part 5)

    The Final Battle When we left off, our heroes were at our lowest point. Kid Buu has destroyed the Earth, leaving them without the Dragon Balls.
