It’s a horrific thing when you wake up one day, at thirty-five, and discover that you know nothing about science. So poor was my knowledge of even the basics that I’ve spent the last year devouring science books in the hope of educating myself (with my recommendation being Bill Bryson’s “A Short History of Nearly Everything” as one of the most user-friendly science books out there). So I’d actually done a little reading on super volcanos and the like going in to Salt and Fire, and the opening act had me hoping this would be smart, scientifically-based thriller. Mixing science and entertainment is…let’s say difficult…but if anyone could do it Werner Herzog could, right?
Grady Hendrix’s The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires could be the next big thing.
After Rosario, keep an eye out on director Felipe Vargas.
Salvable is a story about decision, not redemption.
