This week I'm reviewing Taxes and TARDIS by N. R. Walker.
Brent Kelly is an electrician that has his own business. He is surprised to find that his normal accountant is not available. Brent’s magical box (a.k.a. a shoebox) of receipts is a nightmare for any accountant, and he finally has his old one trained on his ways. He is embarrassed to have to introduce his “filing system” to a new accountant. The accountant is Logan Willis who comes across as quiet and geeky, and also British. I love a nerd with an accent. Logan is in love with all British Sci-Fi – and who wouldn’t be?
Brent Kelly is an electrician that has his own business. He is surprised to find that his normal accountant is not available. Brent’s magical box (a.k.a. a shoebox) of receipts is a nightmare for any accountant, and he finally has his old one trained on his ways. He is embarrassed to have to introduce his “filing system” to a new accountant. The accountant is Logan Willis who comes across as quiet and geeky, and also British. I love a nerd with an accent. Logan is in love with all British Sci-Fi – and who wouldn’t be?

On the first meeting, Brent can’t seem to form a sentence to save his life. He ends up asking about the color of Logan’s shirt which Logan describes as TARDIS blue. Now, we as geeks all know the color of TARDIS blue instantly. Brent is a little confused about what is a T.A.R.D.I.S. and Logan explains it means Time and Relative Dimension in Space. This also is not much help to Brent, but he is determined to figure out about this show Doctor Who and the TARDIS.
Brent runs out to borrow the Doctor Who. He does get teased by his best friend and roommate, Tim, for deciding to stay in on Friday to watch Doctor Who instead of hanging out a bar with his friends as is his normal pattern. Brent calls Logan to ask some questions about Doctor Who and ask if Logan needs any help deciphering Brent’s filing system. They meet on the pretense of reviewing the receipts, but end up watching Doctor Who. Logan introduces Brent to Torchwood. Oh, my! Captain Jack Harkness can help introduce the sexy times to any couple because he is just that fabulous.
This book was short, but sweet. I loved seeing Logan’s forceful side and Brent’s vulnerable side. I loved Tim the roommate – he not only provided silliness to the story but also guidance for this couple. I hated Marty, but you need to read the book to understand why. If you are looking for a quick read on a lazy Sunday afternoon, I highly recommend Taxes and TARDIS by NR Walker.
