I bet with that new baby you wish that you could have someone create you so that you don't have to sleep as much. Lol I will say this book is somewhat interesting. If the whole book reads like the part you read from though sounds too wordy. But maybe it was just that one area that they were using all that descriptive text. I don't know you did a good job of peaking my interest. We will see. Can't wait to hear what you think of Dracula. I love that book, especially the way they did it. It's all like entries. So yeah I can't wait to see what you think on that one. Anyway, good video. Thank you!

Hey! I went back and looked through the book for you. That chapter in particular is called Dogs of War and it kicks-off Part 3 of the book called Superego. The sequence is ten pages long and described just as brutal as the film. The biggest difference is the amount of suspense that leads up to the fight. Feels like reading horror. The dogs also have more of a haunting presence in the rising action before the showdown in the woods, i.e. the scenes with Bruce's father as he slowly wedges himself back into his life.

Nice review Ricky. I enjoyed it. But I didn't enjoy that deep voice you did, it scared me! I need to do a re-read now. And I am currently watching the movie "Frankenstein" starring Donald Sutherland. It actually starts off with Donald Sutherland as a Captain if a shop that is frozen in the Artic ice. The sailors see The Creation on a dog sled and behind him is Victor Frankenstein. Victor falls off his sled and is rescued by the sailors. He tells his story while he is laid up in the Captains quarters. It's really a good film. You can find it for free on KZfaq. And, (high excited voice) Thank you for sharing. I look forward to more! (Real High Voice) -James
