Caribbean and European history. Video Games. Comics. Sci Fi and Fantasy Novels

I read extensively on Caribbean History as a West Indian. Specifically from the 17th century to current times. I also read voraciously on European history from the era of the French Revolution to current times.


I have been an avid player of video games from the age of 8 years old. My favourite genres are first person shooters and adventure games.


Novels in the genre of Science Fiction and Fantasy such as 1984 and a song of ice and fire respectively are a joy for me to read.


First and foremost my love has always been film. From science fiction to crime drama to historical and experimental documentary.
