The project was never filmed, in part (as Asimov notes in his introduction, actually written in 1987 for the three-part serialization in "Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine") because "the picture would have cost some $30 million to make," which was considered prohibitive, and in part because "The producers wanted Harlan to make the robots 'cute,' like R2-D2, and they also wanted him to make Susan Calvin young and pretty like Princess Leia." A 2004 Will Smith cop-detective vehicle about a robot rebellion used the title, though screen credits admitted the filmed "I, Robot" was merely "suggested" by Asimov's short story collection, while also using elements of his "Caves of Steel." The production budget? Um. Ellison's screenplay for Asimov's "unfilmable" classic would have been "The first really adult, complex, worthwhile science fiction movie ever made," author Asimov opined in 1987. ![]() No reading creases as-new unread trade paperback, but with minor rub and wear to corners.

It is sexy and elegant and creative, all in one package. ![]() In addition, while heavy on the spice, there is an actual plot that is being advanced and not just an excuse to write porn. I cannot even begin to tell you what a joy it was to be able to read something and not have to translate to what was meant instead of what is actually there on the page because of words used incorrectly and bad editing that failed to catch it. The language used, the sentence structure and grammar, the spelling, all impeccable. I cannot believe that I am about to type this particular combination of words, but here goes: For an erotic romance offering that I found on Kindle Unlimited by sheer chance after seeing a recommendation on TikTok, A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor is meticulously crafted. It was here that I first heard of a novel by Kathryn Moon entitled A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor. ![]() It took awhile for the algorithm to figure me out, but eventually it got me to BookTok. I have recently fallen down the rabbit hole that is TikTok. I really don’t know where to start with this one. ![]() ![]() ![]() What I love about Ellen O’Connell is she takes that more romantic notion of the West but overlays a layer of realism so it is somehow entertaining and realistic but not hard edged. ![]() There is the idealised version where the good guys wear white hats and the bad guys wear black hats –– where a bad guy gets shot and he dies without shedding any blood and the gritty, more realistic and usually quite violent version. Westerns tend to fall into one of two camps. She goes from seeing him as a cold blooded killer, to a man of honour who will put himself in harms way to protect those he loves.īefore long she has fallen in love, but Bret plans to return to his wealthy family in Missouri, and they will never accept a woman like her, poor and with an Irish father, so their time is short. Despite the limitations of not having a voice, she is smart and recognises bounties that Bret would have missed. His plan is to unload her on the first willing person, but it quickly becomes apparent that life isn’t easy for a woman on the frontier and if he wants to ensure her safety he’ll need to keep her with him.Īs they travel the West, searching for bounties, Hassie finds a place with Bret. ![]() After gunning down Rufus Petty, Bret finds himself faced with a half starved mute woman burying an old man. His only choice is to take her with him or leave her to die, so with her broken down old horse and half wild dog in tow they set off together. ![]() ![]() ![]() Most drama between professionals is not hobby drama, e.g. What is not a hobby?
