November 3, 2013 Eric Swain External Sources Reviews For September/October Only 4 reviews over the last two months. It would have been more, but several things have kept them from others being published on time. Late review copies, accidental double scheduling etc. My next review round up looks to be a doozy.

It does what it sets out to do, but isn’t really the spectacular. What really hit the right tone was starting off the review the way I did. | more

Sufficed to say I’m too pissed to get anything done and I doubt I could hope to rewrite it. It wasn’t even suppose to be long it just ended up that way. So here are the links to my reviews that spawned the whole thing. | more
