But inevitably, what most viewers will be reminded of as they watch the eight-episode first season is Game of Thrones. ![]() ![]() One of the streaming network’s more anticipated recent releases, it’s an adaptation of the Grishaverse, a bestselling young adult fantasy series of novels by Leigh Bardugo based loosely on Tsarist Russia. The new Netflix series Shadow and Bone, which lumbers into the world on April 23, draws instant comparisons to the giant upon whose shoulders it stands. ![]() ![]() ![]() A harmadik nagyobb történet már egy kicsit elkapkodottra sikerült: az új karakter Starling ugyan bejön, de az egész bosszú plotja elkapkodott volt, csakhogy lássunk egy új „szuperhőst” (antihőst?).Ī romantikus szál meg gyenge: Barbarát még elviselném, de Starlinggal olyan hirtelen jött ez a háromszög, bár amire épít – hogy Miles nem tudja a két életét összehozni, abban van még tök jó potenciál.

Suspenseful and wry, shrewd and deeply felt, Fadeout remains as fresh today as when it startled readers more than thirty years ago. When entertainer Fox Olson’s car plunges off a bridge in a storm, a death claim is filed, but where is Olson’s body? As Brandstetter questions family, fans, and detractors, he grows certain Olson is still alive and that Dave must find him before the would-be killer does. At a Glance: An absolute classic in Gay Fictionīlurb: Fadeout is the first of Joseph Hansen’s twelve classic mysteries featuring rugged Dave Brandstetter, an insurance investigator who is contentedly gay. ![]() ![]() Thompson-Spires fearlessly shines a light on the simmering tensions and precariousness of black citizenship.
