Knights Archive Reviews Collect All 21!

Andrew over at the Star Wars fan site Knights Archive has written a nice dual review of Collect All 21! and Tony Pacitti’s My Best Friend is a Wookiee.

(You may try not to snicker when you get to the part where he describes me as the “matured family man.” I know it made me grin.)

About

I tell stories, true and otherwise.

More? Northeast Ohioan. Dad. Brachiopod hunter. Semi-casual runner. Geek. Writer for 30+ years; started getting paid for it in 1995. A decade as a full-time reporter, columnist and blogger. Freelance projects for magazines, radio and online outlets.

I’ve written two books: “Collect All 21! Memoirs of a Star Wars Geek – The First 30 Years” and a novel, “Crossing Decembers.”

More? My racing name on our pirated Commodore 64 copy of The Great American Cross Country Road Race was Lamborghini Lyle. After the day I finally knocked off the computer-driven All-American Al and took first place, the game never worked again. Sore loser.
