Watch out for the Quiz(man) - 16/7/8 |
|
|
By: El Tombo |
|
|
What's up peeps?
Yes, it's Monday again, and the quiz is here with beer, good cheer, and won't call you a queer (actually it might, now that I think about it). How are we all doing? Good? Perhaps the news that Big Brother has finally been cancelled has warmed your s... |

Quiz Medicine (is what I need) 9/7/8 |
|
|
By: Tom V |
|
|
Howdy pardners!
It's time for the best part of Wednesday, that freaking quiz you love to hate to love the fact that you hatefully love loving to hate it with an intensity that threatens to cause an almost-visible crease to form above your left eyebrow. Yes. That one.... |

BOOK REVIEW - American Hoax |
|
|
By: Charles Firth |
|
|
-Cover
Charles Firth dressed as Uncle Sam, giving us with the world's biggest "Gotcha!". An equivalent cover could have read: "Americans Please Do Not Buy This Book".
-Plot
Firth, ex of the Chaser, outlines his intentions at the beginning of the book. He's staying ... |

BOOK REVIEW - Balsamic Dreams |
|
|
By: Joe Queenan |
|
|
-Cover
An awkward but moderately eye-catching design - it's Joe's little head superimposed on a bottle of balsamic vinegar, so it (sort of) looks like the bottle's his body, with scratchy little stick-man arms and text drawn in the a crude black style against a blank w... |

BOOK REVIEW - The Python Diaries 1969 - 1979 |
|
|
By: Michael Palin |
|
|
-Cover
A colourised photo, against white, of Mr. Palin sitting on the ground like the schoolboy he still resembles under the wrinkles. The fashion speaks for the era. The text isn't much, but as a whole it works quite well combined with the impressive heft of the book.... |

BOOK REVIEW - Zeppelins West |
|
|
By: Joe R Lansdale |
|
|
-Cover
Comic-style gatefold (wrap-around) painting of the book's characters. Some nice colour choices, but overall rather 'soft' and lacking in detail, plus the back, for some reason, works differently than the front. It caught my eye, but really if the artist wasn't h... |

BOOK REVIEW - All Fun And Games Until Someone... |
|
|
By: Christopher Brookmyre |
|
|
-Cover
Brookmyre's entire catalogue has been visually re-worked. The new versions use the bold colours and loud, simple text of the previous designs but replace the smooth curves and single photographic elements with jagged, "cut-out" text and basic visuals which owe s... |

BOOK REVIEW - U.S.! |
|
|
By: Chris Bachelder |
|
|
-Cover
Not bad. A black & white photograph of Upton Sinclair, carefully overlaid with a modern T-shirt. Colours are tones of brown and red (appropriate), present in text and a bullseye over Upton's chest. It's subtler than it sounds, because the colours are well chosen... |
