I received an unedited proof from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This in no way impacts my opinion (and so on). I heard a lot of talk about this book on the usual channels, so it was kind of a no-brainer that I went hunting for it on Netgalley. And glad I am that “office gossip” sometimes […]
Borne of the Deep by Michael Patrick Hicks
I received a free audio copy from the author in exchange for an honest review. This in no way impacts my opinion. Salem Hawley returns as the emancipated slave who dares take on the Lovecraft canon. This time Salem travels to Arkham to retrieve a tome, Al Azif, before it falls into the wrong hands. When Salem arrives at the […]
Onslaught of Madness by Jesse Teller
I received a free copy from the author (well, his wife) in exchange for an honest review. This in no way impacts my opinions. I hate typing those words at the start of reviews, but unfortunately certain global entities require it for posting reviews on certain sites, so there ya go. Anyway, I started reading this at a particularly busy […]
Haggopian and Other Stories (Best Mythos Tales) by Brian Lumley
I received a free audio copy from the narrator in exchange for an honest review. This in no way imaginable alters my opinions. I still remember enjoying the Necroscope series back in the dawn of my 20s. While I often wonder if my opinion of it today would be different to those of my salad days, despite it being nearly […]
Black Hallows: Cradle of Darkness by Tom GH Adams
I received a free audio copy from the author in exchange for an honest review. I like the idea that the story revolves around a planet that suffers tectonic upheavals due to its orbital alignment. These upheavals release (more) evil onto the world by means of Black Hallows (the series title). This affects different people in different ways, but the […]
The Fearing, by John FD Taff
This is a review of a four part series, which I have received free copies of each novella from the publisher (Grey Matter Press) in return for an honest review. This in no way impacts my opinion. I’ve reviewed each book separately on Goodreads, and you can find the links here: Book I – Fire and Rain Book II […]
The Rage of Dragons, by Evan Winter
This book was busy making a name for itself in 2019, so when it popped up in my library, I decided to jump in and see what all the fuss was about. This “African” (the diversity of cultures in that continent make this a broad statement) based fantasy revolves around Tau, a young lower class man, who embarks on a […]
