Black House and Brutal Legend

Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub
First thoughts: I'm not to the 3rd chapter yet but I'm having problems staying focused with it. It seems to have a very slow start as well as flipping through a little it seems Jack doesn't make an appearance to the chapter 3.

Conclusion: Although it took awhile to get into it I loved this books. Especially since I had ready a little of Dark Tower and the short story in one of the collections. The story was slow but awesome. The only thing I disliked was the characters I liked who died. I adored Henry and Jack along with Breezer. Mouse and Doc were pretty cool too though. It seems like there's going to be a 3rd one and if there is I will be excite to read it. 9.5 out of 10.

Brutal Legend
First thoughts: It seemed like a pretty sweet game just from the demo. I loved how you could select censorship in the game. The characters seemed pretty cool too.

Conclusion: The overall story is good and I did like the twists in it. I LOVED the music in it and it made it all the better that Superbeast -Rob Zombie was in it near the final battle. Really the only thing that bothered me was the 'break-up' because of how much it was like "I'll never betray you; I'll always believe you" then its like nope don't care. I also loved the second half of the games enemies. I really do want to play this game for myself one day and try to get all the stuff in it. 9 out of 10.
