The Turing Test Review
Riga is sixteen, bored, angry, frustrated, unpredictable and way out of control. An ordinary teenager, in other words, but one who is desperately trying to make sense of an extraordinary world. Turns out that climate science ended up getting rid of the climate altogether, and the survivors live in artificial domes from which their only escape are the virtual worlds of Second Skin. Unless you're a Mariner like Colt Covance, violinist, martial arts expert and genius in Artificial Intelligence, and your job is to help salvage what's left of civilization after the Flood. It's Avatar without the Smurfs, Twilight without the vampires, Donnie Darko without the rabbit, 2012 without the apocalypse, Xbox with electrifying extras, as Riga and Colt track down the clues that will lead them to the edge of a horrifying mystery only the Turing Test can solve. In cyberspace everybody can hear you scream.

Cult Television Review
A television series is tagged with the label "cult" by the media, advertisers, and network executives when it is considered edgy or offbeat, when it appeals to nostalgia, or when it is considered emblematic of a particular subculture. By these criteria, almost any series could be described as cult. Yet certain programs exert an uncanny power over their fans, encouraging them to immerse themselves within a fictional world.
In Cult Television leading scholars examine such shows as The X-Files; The Avengers; Doctor Who, Babylon Five; Star Trek; Xena, Warrior Princess; and Buffy the Vampire Slayer to determine the defining characteristics of cult television and map the contours of this phenomenon within the larger scope of popular culture.

Benny and Babe (Benny Shaw) Review
Benny, a sports-obsessed, carefree kid, is convinced that he can take on the world—until he spends the summer living with his grandfather and meets resident tomboy and all-around tough-girl Babe Meara. Benny may be a wise guy, but Babe is at least three steps ahead of him. And now he's on her territory. A “townie” visiting for the holidays, Benny must accept the challenges of the country ways head-on. The locals play games by their own rules, and teasing the townie is a favorite pastime. When the serious business of earning money arises, Babe just might consider Benny as her partner, and possibly a friend. But things become very complicated, and dangerous, when the troublesome Furty Howlin wants a slice of the action.
