Ep 18 - How Star Wars Conquered the Universe

In 1977 a little known movie, Star Wars, would go on to change the world of science fiction movies forever. But it didn't stop there. It changed how toys were licensed for movies; how everything was licensed for movies. It spawned fan clubs, costuming clubs, books, TV shows, cartoons, video games, etc. Star Wars literally seeped into every aspect of not just American pop culture but the culture of the entire world! This month we discuss, as the books title puts it simply, How Star Wars Conquered the Universe. May's book will be Spell or High Water; Magic 2.0 Book 2 by Scott Meyer.

Ep 13 - Catching Up on Books

We've read a lot of books that have taken us on adventures to space, alternate dimensions and back in time. We've learned about how to hopefully save the planet, why it's ok to be weird on the internet and what was really going on behind the scenes during the filming of Star Wars. But not everyone was able to keep up or able to share their thoughts. This week we're going back and taking a second look at the books we've read over the last year. December's book will be: Off To Be the Wizard by Scott Meyer.

Ep 5 - The Princess Diarist

For a large portion of the population when you ask them about "their princess" they will probably respond with Diana. But for us geeks and nerds "our princess" will always be Leia. In honor of Carrie Fisher's passing, we read her last book, The Princess Diarist, where she recounts her time during the filming of the original Star Wars trilogy. Told only the way she could, it's sassy, funny and down to earth. May the Force be with her... always. We also announce our next book for March; Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter by Seth Graham-Smith.

Ep 4 - Star Wars Catalyst

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was the first "stand alone" movie in the franchise since Disney acquired them. Most of the people on our site enjoyed the movie and would love to learn more about the characters. Which is why this month we read Catalyst: A Rogue One Novel by James Luceno. So what did we think about this prequel to a prequel? We also announce our next book for February; The Princess Diarist by Carrie Fisher.
