One sentence reviews 2015/1

So, the year is young and already had its moments... here are my purchases so far:

Gaming Products

Books
  • Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" - One of the most depressing and futile novels I've read so far - I loved it.
  • Cormac McCarthy's "Ein Kind Gottes" (Child of God) - Not as good as "The Road", but after two books I can see a pattern here, Mr. McCarthy - and I like it.
  • Joe Haldeman "Camouflage" - Well, one-fifth through the book and It's more like "fifty shades of grey-alien" then the nebula-award-epic-sci-fi-I-hoped-for.
Movies/Series
  • Lost Season 4 & 5 - Better then I thought, at least without ads and a week between episodes.
  • The Walking Dead Season 5 (11/16) - I'm not sure I like every development, but among the best on TV nonetheless.
  • The Purge - A whaky dystopian future makes a mediocre excuse for an mediocre kind of home invasion movie...
Music
  • Huss & Hodn Zitate EP - Funky.
  • Venetian Snares My So-Called Life - So far detrimentalist was my favorite album by Aaron Funk, MSCL could be the successor...
  • Venetian Snares My Love is a Bulldozer - Interesting... lots of singing is going on here, but a true VS-album nonetheless - not for the faint of heart.
*The underlying mechanic is neat, though; you can get the basics for free here.

Overall some good purchases! We'll see what comes next...
