Okay, so… this is a book review. Sounds a bit boring doesn’t it?  I mean – a book review.  I can’t remember the last time that I did a book review per se because I think I got bored with them myself.  They’re everywhere, aren’t they?  Online. In magazines. In newsletters.  And part of me thinks – who needs ’em?  Why add to the mass of unread ones out there?

The Witcher has had a lasting impression on fantasy across many media forms, first in Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels and, more recently, its many adaptations. Such adaptations have resulted in “extensive, self-contained fictional spaces” (Jański, 2018, p.119) which allows for a variety of characters, environments, and societies to be depicted from the perspective of the outsider.

Suspects (Channel 5, 2014-2016), on the other hand, was an unscripted crime drama featuring improvised dialogue.

The mid-1990s were an unusual time to grow up in the US (at least I thought so). The success of The X-Files (Fox 1993-2003; 2016-2018) had led to an explicit spinoff ( Millennium, Fox 1996-1999) as well as a glut of similar conspiracy and alien-related series.

So, this morning, the day has already got off to a good start with the unprompted arrival of what I like to think of as a ‘Nice one!’ e-mail. They don’t have to be long.  They don’t have to be complicated.  And – indeed – they were a thing taught to me in the technology field before we even had e-mails.  I have no idea what I liked to think of them as back then.
