Excellent-- these look like such wonderful reads! I can't wait to pour over them this weekend. Though, admittedly, I had to read the Underworld review ASAP!
These are great, thanks for sharing them! Have a wonderful weekend!
Heading straight for mummified monks and Underworld 3 links. Thanks for these links!
