    Review : Mummy’s Little Secret by M. A. Hunter

    August 13, 2021 /

    Mummy’s Little Secret was an explosive and fraught story with past traumas around every corner.  This story broke me a little inside, call it the powerful narrative, the secrets that we try to keep locked away or the maternal instinct within me, wanting to protect those that are vulnerable.  I’m going to try and do this review justice and explain exactly why this book altered me emotionally.  The prose was flawless, the teasing of the plot was carried out like a highly trained string musician.  Mummy’s Little Secret is told over two timelines,  two families, two main characters.  Before and now.  Jess’s family and Morag’s.  Two completely different women, from…

    Review : The Nothing That Is by Kyle Winkler

    August 10, 2021 /

    The Nothing That Is by Kyle Winkler was a huge surprise. Adrenaline  and mystique keep the reader engaged. We get everything that we could possibly anticipate from an excellent Cosmic Horror. Winkler sets impossibly high standard from the get go. That exquisite level of imagination is continued throughout the novella. Trust Winkler and his vision, he doesn’t steer you wrong. The Nothing That Is is a creation that lives in the deepest recesses of a brilliant mind. His writing never once failed me. I love Cosmic Horror and the accuracy and shock value entranced me. The plot is a dangerous roller-coaster of strangeness and obscurity. It’s the perfect stage for…

    Blog Tour: Wicked Little Deeds by Kat Ellis

    August 8, 2021 /

    Wicked Little Deeds was a story that I ended up gobbling up. I reviewed Harrow Lake, which I absolutely adored last year and I just hoped that this was going to hold up to the same promise. Kat Ellis knows how to write a thriller; this is very different to Harrow Lake but Wicked Little Deeds had the ability to smack you upside the head with its killer hook. Paranormal entity. An impending threat. Twists by the bucket load. If you think you have this one figured out be prepared for a grenade to blow up in your face. Wicked Little Deeds Has the building block of teenage relationships, trust…

    Review: The Iron Crown by L. L. MacRae

    August 6, 2021 /

    The Iron crown is an ethereal vision of adventure and female badassery. Fenn has been cursed by the Myr. He can’t remember anything; He has no memories of where he’s come from, no memories of friends or family and he doesn’t know if he’s been put on this earth to do good or bad. The story takes off at such a pace I was quickly lacing up my Nikes and racing for the finish line. “The Dragons are the guardians of tessar, spirits of life of guidance and protection. Without them we are nothing.” The formula that the author concocted in order to produce this was both unique and special.…

    Review: Into The Dark by Stuart Johnstone

    July 30, 2021 /

    Into The Dark is a stark warning that we can all become products of our past if we allow it to consume us.  The past can haunt us, and it can keep tiptoeing back into our lives.   Is it ever possible to bury the past?  This premise is one that sends chills down my spine.  Edinburgh is known for its culture, its connections with Europe but it also has got a dark side.  Murder and deceit can be found in dark corners just like any other city.  Sergeant Donald Colyear is back in Edinburgh and is about to be found embroiled in a case that is as dark as it…

    Review: The Goners by L. Stephenson

    July 28, 2021 /

    The Goners was a home run for L. Stephenson.  The cover was ominous, secretive, and forewarned of the threatening shadows that lurked beneath the surface. It’s the kind of story that will become etched into your mind and you can’t put the book down until that last page has been devoured.  Stephenson is a master storyteller that envelops you in atmospheric brilliance and complexity that will literally tie you up in knots.  His brilliance is his reader’s weakness, and The Goners did not disappoint.  This isn’t just another Horror – it is an experience.  Set on the fictional island of Boatmore, we meet a Paramedic Liam and his team, with…
