by Emma Westwood From the beginning of cinema, things that go bump in the night have colored our collective storytelling experience. The hypothetical 'monster,' in whatever guise or otherworldly shape it may take, is the manifestation of our fears and social paranoias, and an effective watchdog for making sure we all toe the line. This book peels back the flesh on a few monsters that have tingled our spines and caused more than a few nightmares over the past 100 years, from the creepy talons of Max Schreck in 1922's Nosferatu through the Tokyo-stomping Godzilla, to present-day cinematic monsters from such touchstones as Alien, King Kong, The Fly, and Evil Dead.

(W) Craig Cabell Few roles in television history are as iconic, demanding, or as anticipated by its legion of fans as that of the famous time traveler with two hearts. This compendium of facts about the men behind the role reveals to fans who was a bouncer for the Rolling Stones before taking control of the TARDIS, who was nearly blown up in World War II aboard HMS Hood, who had a fondness for wooly hats and a grandson who would become Harry Potter's nemesis, and who played a transvestite barmaid before becoming a Who heart-throb. All these bizarre facts are explained as the lives and careers of each Doctor are put under the spotlight. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

When Elisabeth Sladen first appeared as plucky journalist Sarah Jane Smith in Doctor Who's 1973 story 'The Time Warrior,' little did she know the character would become one of the most enduring and fondly remembered in the series' history. By the time she left the series, Sladen had become one of the series' most familiar faces. But that wasn't the end of Sarah Jane, as Sladen reprised her role time and again. She discusses touring the weird, wide, and wonderful world of Doctor Who fandom and shares details of Sarah Jane's most recent incarnation when TV wunderkind Russell T. Davies approached her to return once more, this time to a Doctor Who backed by lavish budgets. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

(W) Rachel Gray From encounters with Barnabas Marsh and Wilbur Whateley to dangerous seaside communities, this witty exploration covers the multitude of imaginary dangers, escape options, and chances of survival when confronting these horrors. Shoggoths, Nightgaunts, ghouls, and Cthulhu all have ventured into popular culture in the form of cuddly toys, but as this entertaining overview proves, these monsters are not so warm and fuzzy when met face-to-face, face-to-muzzle, or face-to-tentacles. Authoritative and hilarious, this 'survival guide' sheds light on the mysterious and often unimaginable world of Cthulhu. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

(W) Brian J. Robb Brian J. Robb, writer for Doctor Who Magazine and editor of Torchwood Magazine, tackles each decade of Doctor Who through a unique political, pop cultural, and historical viewpoint, exploring the links between contemporary Britain and the stories the series told, as well as how such links kept the show popular. Chapters range from discussions on the cultural and political relevance of the monsters of the 1960s to the late 1980s cancellation of the show and the ways in which a narrowly focused, dedicated fandom contributed to the show's demise. This history also analyzes the new series to reveal what has made it so popular and how it reflects real world issues. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
