Review: The Knife of Never Letting Go

The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness My rating: 4 of 5 stars The Knife of Never Letting Go. The cover is a clue to what this book is going to be like. The typography wouldn’t look out-of-place on a horror movie and looks like it was written with the tip of a knife, […]

Review: Tim Waggoner’s Nekropolis

Nekropolis: A Matt Richter Novel by Tim Waggoner My rating: 3 of 5 stars Nekroplis is a strange concoction of genres. Its a detective story set in a fantasy background with every describable (and some indescribable)monster from horror featured in it. Its perhaps why it took Nekroplis so long to be taken up by a […]

Review: The Black God’s War: A Novella

This is an interesting book. I bought it because David Farland recommended it in one of his Daily Kicks. I started reading it initially but couldn’t get into, then left for about half a year. Then a few days ago, I picked it up and started reading it again and was pleasantly surprised. Its like a blend […]

Review: John Lenahan’s Shadowmagic

Shadowmagic by John Lenahan My rating: 3 of 5 stars I’m gonna come clean on this one. I downloaded this book for two reasons, it was for 49p and it sounded similar to The Changeling King. Initially, I didn’t like it. The hero is supposed to be in his late teens or something, but his […]
