  Children of the corn

  ★★★★☆

  A concept that defied credulity even when originally created, but suspend your disbelief and enjoy the creepy settings, performances and ambiance. The only parts that don't stand up are a few truly horrid visual special effects and a rather abrupt ending.

  The great wall

  ★★★★★

  Ignore the occassionally stilted language as an artifact of a script written for a primarily foreign audience and enjoy the splendid landscapes, sets, and actions set pieces.

  Wonder Woman. by Thompson, Jill,

  ★☆☆☆☆

  Yet another boring rehash and reinvention of a superhero's origins - this time corrupted with a host of personality flaws in the titular hero and poor art to boot.

  Trees. by Ellis, Warren,

  ★★★★☆

  True to the subtitle, this volume culls down the quartet of storylines from the first installment to focus on the two most interesting.

  Crazy hair by Gaiman, Neil.

  ★★★☆☆

  Short but evocative, even so the least entertaining of his children's works.
