PostSubject: Welcome to a South African POV! :-)   Tue Jan 13, 2009 10:59 am

Hey all, thanks for checking out my blog here and in your Reader, Feed, wherever! :-)

Some background on me: Yè I'm a South African, living in SA, and as far as I know I'm the only South African in the country with a blog like mine. :-) I work in what used to be one of the biggest book-chains in the country, but the company was liquidated at the end of October '08, and although we've got new owners, nothing in terms of new books have been ordered so I've been relying on bloggers everywhere to keep me in the know. :-) But I did manage to organize with the publishers here in SA to supply me with constant reading material. :-)

On my blog you'll find a bit of everything, really; I'm a big lover of Fantasy, am completely nuts over Star Wars, and love SF too, but I've yet to read any Urban Fantasy or Steampunk. All my reviews are posted there, and the reviews are generally unstructured and informal. I also am lucky enough to do the odd interview with an author, and I also do Spotlights on subjects that need spotlighting. :-)

Okay, before you yawn, cheers, and thanks for checking me out! :-)

Be Fantastic!

love seeing Draven as your avatar. The Crow was my first graphic novel and is a bit of an obsession.

Man isn't it the best graphic novel in the world?! I haven't read anything else that came even remotely close to it - the only 'comic' that ever made me bawl my eyes out at the end. And that's why I'm so angry with Hollywood right now - remaking that classic movie is just one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of!

BTW thanks for dropping by on the blog - ye plenty of reading material! :-)
