    Before They Are Hanged by Joe Abercrombie | Book Review

    March 24, 2021 / 2 Comments

    “we should forgive our enemies, but not before they are hanged.” Before they Hanged is another masterpiece in storytelling and exemplary characterization.  The first half the book felt like a continuation of the Blade Itself – a set up story…a massive prologue, if you like.  Again, Abercrombie sets up the story with the consummate skill of masterful bard.  It’s a story of epic proportions, vivid worldbuilding and terrible treachery.  You are immediately catapulted into the world once more, carrying on from where The Blade Itself left off.  Not a beat dropped, a breath wasted, or a thought discarded.  The Blade Itself really was a set up book, introducing us to…

    We Lie With Death by Devin Madson | Review

    January 24, 2021 / 1 Comment

    You know what they say after a storm?  It clears the air, but there was no calm after the storm in We Lie with Death.  The world building is once again rich and brutal and I was once again delighted to see characters taking their own paths, accepting the hand that fate had dealt them and becoming all the stronger for it.  I only very recently finished reading We Ride the Storm and the first thing I did was request the next book in the series on netgalley, thankfully the book gods granted my request and here I am basking in the glory of the empire of Kisia.  I was…

    We Ride The Storm by Devin Madson | Book Review.

    December 17, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Jesus Christ on a bike!  We Ride the Storm was a novel that was pure adrenaline.  Storm Noun a tumultuous reaction; an uproar or controversy. There is no disillusion hidden behind the pretext of name.  This book is a storm, and it aims to rile you up, as quickly as possible.  This story aims to shake up the fantasy genre and it does that and more.  Its an underrated gem that gleams, and the reader can’t help but fall deep for the magnificent prose and authentic worldbuilding.  The author doesn’t beat around the bush and she is happy to cut your throat in the first chapter and not even be…

    Review: Pan’s Labyrinth by Guillermo Del Toro & Cornelia Funke

    August 11, 2019 / 8 Comments

    The magic and wonder of Pan’s Labyrinth somehow escaped me the first time it came out and I have no idea how?!  If you think that this is a perfect, child friendly happy ever after fairy tale you are in for a rather nasty shock.  I think it’s always a risky business turning film into novel, but this dark fantasy ticks all my gothic needs in one full swoop.  Ophelia is a heroine that gives us all the feels, she is a character that we can relate to in one way or another.  She has that childhood naivety that we all had only to have it crushed from blow after…
