#SteveReviews: Prehistoric Planet 2
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few months, you’re probably aware that towards the end of last month, the second season of Prehistoric Planet aired on Apple TV+. This was a follow-up series to the successful…
#SciFri: Titanosaur – Life as the Biggest Dinosaur
As you may have seen on social media recently, I visited the Titanosaur exhibit at the Natural History Museum, London with a few other likeminded individuals, thanks to the brilliant organising skills of James Pascoe (cheers mate!). For those of…
#SteveReviews: Wild Isles
It seems that at the moment, Sir David Attenborough is producing a new series every week, instead of winding down into retirement. Having a quick look at IMDB, it seems that Attenborough is producing landmark series more frequently than he…
#SteveReviews: Chimp Empire

#StevesLibrary: Tamed
You may remember that I’ve recently read Sapiens and Guns, Germs and Steel over the past couple of years. Both of these books delve into the dawn of civilisation, and what motivated people to come together and start farming, therefore…
#StevesLibrary: Bee Quest
After finishing to read His Imperial Majesty recently, I thought I’d keep with the entomological theme and read Bee Quest. Insects are one of those groups of animals that fascinate me deeply, but were just beaten by amphibians and reptiles….
#SteveReviews: Prehistoric Planet
It was going to come sooner or later, wasn’t it? I’m sorry it took me so long to getting around to write this, but with my PhD thesis deadline looming, I’ve had bigger fish to fry! For those of you…
