    The Institute by Stephen King | Review

    January 3, 2021 /

    The Institute, much like Sleeping Beauties felt like a trip back in time by Mr King.  He’s back to that standard that his fans love.  I’ve owned this book for over a year now and only just got the courage to pick it up.  I am a mega King fan and hoped and prayed that this would be everything that I wanted and guess what the main man pulled it straight out of left field.  The dynamics, the characterisation and the environment had me fist bumping the air…because you know, no-one around me likes reading and pandemic…gah! One thing you can almost bet your bottom dollar on is that King…

    Sorcery Of A Queen by Brian Naslund | Review

    August 14, 2020 /

    Thank you to Tor UK, Brian Naslund, Jamie-Lee Nardone and Stephen Haskins for a review copy of Sorcery Of A Queen. “You of all people should know how rumours go.  There’s a kernel of truth that gets inflated each time it passes from one drunken mouth to the next, until you have an enormous dragonslayer with a foot-long cock pissing down the neck-stumps of decapitated dragons.”  It has been such a pleasure to be back in the wonderful world of Terra once again.  The magic, the dragons, the relationships and the tongue-in-cheek humour.  Brian Naslund has this inert skill to just know the formula for have the brain completely enraptured…

    Blood of an Exile by Brian Naslund | Review

    August 8, 2020 /

    Great holy Zeus! Blood Of An Exile packs a powerful punch, and this debut punch is a knockout!  This book has the capability of just burrowing under your skin and taking root there.  The plot is thick, enriching and complex.  This story is completely character driven and it knows exactly how you tick!  We have a glorious magic system that enriches the narrative, but it isn’t the main focus, which I have found to be a refreshing change.  Blood Of An Exile has fired up my synapses and it will stay with me for the long-term – in all its raw complexity. Dragons are my favourite magical creatures in fantasy,…

    Blog Tour: Incendiary (Hollow Crown #1) by Zoraida Cordova

    April 28, 2020 /

    Incendiary.  The Ability to cause fires, and boy does this book burn up in your hands.  Agreeing to take part in this book tour is one of the best decisions I have made.  The book cover, the title and the words contained within was a dead cert to win hearts and capture aspirations.  I opened the first page and I was lost to the magnificence and by the end I knew I would never be the same again.  A maze of enchantment, the words melded into one and I was lost.   Upon turning the final page on this piece of art, I knew this would be a difficult review…

    Review: Docile by K.M. Szpara

    March 16, 2020 /

    Wow, if Docile has afforded me one thing – its that I am eternally grateful for how my life is (even with the current health crisis.)  Docile has nailed it home just how easily the world and humanity can sink into the depths of depravity and self-indulgent when capitalism rules with an iron fist.  It is a stark reminder of just what I don’t want life to be like.  If you’ve ever wondered what life would be like if you were able to do as you wished, then read Docile – it’s a shocking portrayal of the rich getting richer and the poor becoming more objectified and more desperate.  The…

    Blog Tour: Safe House by Jo Jakeman

    October 31, 2019 /

    My huge thanks to Mia Quibell-Smith for my spot on the blog tour and for my copy of the book, It’s a stunner! All thoughts are my own.  Safe House examines the ramifications of loving and protecting the wrong man.  Should love bend irrefutably?  It makes the connection of just how far you’d be willing to go for the one you love.  If you are a fan of dark humour you are going to be in for a treat.  Safety doesn’t happen by accident. Being an avid psychological Thriller fan, I get extremely excited about the premise of a new, fresh idea.  I’ve read hundreds in this genre, so I…
