December is here and Christmas is almost here. It looks like it will be a different kind of Christmas for us all but with Covid-19 vaccines on the horizon hopefully next year will see us return to a more normal routine, whilst maybe retaining some of the better things we learned about each other andContinue reading “November In Review”

An Apocalyptic, Sci-Fi with Magic 4/5 stars This story is set in an apocalyptic world, where the Raknoth have reined destruction down wiping out much of humanity and leaving the rest limping along trying to survive. Refreshingly there were no zombies. The Story is about Rachel an arcanist that manipulates energy hunting for her missingContinue reading “Red Gambit (The harvester Series Book One) by Luke Mitchell”

Post-apocalyptic fantasy with multiple POV’s – 2.5/5 stars. First and foremost I enjoyed reading this story. Fun is what most readily springs to mind. Though there are plenty of dark moments and gritty action that elevated this from the YA vibe I got from the writing style. I liked that the story was told throughContinue reading “Shadow City by Anna Modikat”

4/5 stars. First of all this book is artfully written. It is grim, descriptive and compelling. The story is many layered and skilfully revealed and I really liked that element of the story telling. That said I found this book difficult to finish and I was torn between 3 or 4 stars for that reasonContinue reading “The Jealousy of Jalice by Jesse Nolan Bailey”

My Rating 4.5/5 I picked this book up on a free promotion. It is my first foray into this genre so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Well… I loved it. To me, it felt like Jack Reacher meets the walking dead and it was just so much damn fun. I enjoyed it from firstContinue reading “Deadbreak: A Zombie Apocalypse Thriller by Jorge Sanchez”

The story was gripping, the magic system was intriguing. An easy concept to follow with interesting possibilities. I read a review thatContinue reading “Voice of War by Zack Argyle”

Fullmetal Jacket with Aliens 3/5 Set in the future where Earth is at war with a powerful insectoid alien species that is more advanced and just plain meaner than us. Half the worlds population has gone, destroyed but the remnants learnt fast and struck back and it has become a war of attrition. I reallyContinue reading “Earth Alone by Daniel Arenson”

4 Stars for this gritty, grim fantasy I just finished Fire Within and this is my review posted on Amazon and Goodreads. The tale is told in a fantasy world that is dirty, grim and fully fleshed. It is not a happy story. There is no joy to be had for any of our protagonistContinue reading “Fire Within by Morten W Simonsen”

I have added a new menu for The Nine Kingdoms and I have moved the maps and Urak menus into this as sub menu’s – just a bit of house keeping to keep my main menu tidy.

Still very much a work in progress but I have added a section in Lore for Urakakule.
