I guess this doesn’t technically count as a book as it’s actually a short story…but I enjoyed it so much I wanted to write about it anyway! We’ve all heard about nuclear bunkers and it’s been written about in fiction and movies about how important world figures would disappear into these bunkers in the event

Book Review – Beautiful Red
Based on my past experience with Little Brother this was another Creative Commons book I managed to pick up for my Kindle. This book actually needs to be thought about in two parts. The idea behind it and the story that goes with it. So what’s the idea? Think about how the Internet is entrenched

Book Review: Assassins Creed Renaissance
Is there such a thing as reading too many books? I’m really into Assassins Creed at the moment. Having ignored the first game I got the second one as gift for my birthday and I was engrossed with it so when I saw this book I grabbed a copy. The story follows the events of

Book Review: Network Your Computers & Devices Step by Step
I need to stop reading so fast otherwise I’ll need to rename this to Andy’s Reading Blog! The Microsoft Press Facebook page were looking for people to review this new book so I put my hand up and I was lucky enough to get a copy of the ebook to take a peek at. I’m

Book Review–Halo Evolutions (Volume 1 and 2)
One of the things I really enjoy about the Halo series of games is the back story and for Halo fans there has been plenty of fiction thrown up which I’ve been more than happy to read! So when I saw Halo Evolutions and Halo Evolutions Volume 2 on Amazon I ordered them straight away.
