Keeping you informed of the literary world through the eyes of Griffin Stiles. I shall here review books, post my own writings, inform the masses some select book based news and throw any historical obscurities into the light of JUSTICE. I bid you a glorious day.

Not a review but a rant.
So hollywood is at it again. Having first butchered "A Journey to the Center of the Earth", they are now moving on to "The Mysterious Island". The plot is something along the lines of 'Look at me, I'm a lonely seismologist. Whats this? And island that is not supposed to exist that is about to be destroyed by earthquakes? It's giving off a distress signal?! It might be my long lost grandfather? I shall bring my stepfather and his daughter to investigate and attempt to save the inhabitant before the island explodes!' I. Hate. Hollywood. With a predicable storyline like that and a no doubt dumbed down and butchered storyline for the kids, what could possible go wrong? Oh. Yes. It's being shot in BLOODY 3D. Good lord, it's "Sherlock Holmes" all over again! I cannot stand for this! The youth of today will grow up knowing nothing of Verne apart from what they learned in hack-job remixes of the glorious originals! I must limit myself to what I have written of I might very well die of disgust. I bid you a glorious day. I'm off to go around the world in 80 days using a patently non-original and certainly not-anywhere-in-the-book flying machine with a martial artist thief. *Hollywood is composed of imbeciles who hate intelligence.*
