2006 – Hiro’s Father was cast on Heroes

Just because the proverbial spring cleaning needs to be done, doesn’t mean it is always fun, but in this case, a few rare gems have surfaced… like running across a tv guide article from 2006 mentioning both Masi Oka (currently on Hawaii Five-O) and George Takei. I remember when that plotline came out Heroes and how much I enjoyed the casting of George Takei as Hiro’s father.

With Heroes Reborn in our future, this old article feels timely once more.

Outlander – The Book that prompted the Show

For those who have been enjoying the STARZ tv show Outlander, but have not yet read any of the books, or perhaps have only read the first one, today might be the day to fall off the fence, and go from being tempted to pick the novels up, to actually getting them.  Why?

Amazon.com has the first 7 novels on sale as eBooks for $1.99.  Here’s a link directly to the page:  The Outlander Series 7-Book Bundle: Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, Drums of Autumn, The Fiery Cross, A Breath of Snow and Ashes, An Echo in the Bone.


We do not know how long this sale will last — but 7 books for the price of 1 novella is certainly a price worth considering… and in our estimation, worth letting others be aware of.
