WORRY BOX - CHRIS PANATIER I never wants kids after finishing this one. Chris creates a compelling and realistically stressful family dynamic, as the Martin's deal with paranoia imposed on them. It delves into the hurts that make a person, and the importance of belonging. Great stuff!

I never really speak about my opinions on the video game industry but all the top brass at Playstation need to be fired before they do any more irreparable damage to the brand. This is as bad if not worse than Don Mattrick's stint at Xbox in 2013.

TALES FROM THE TERRITORY - TRAVIS BALDREE Five cosy short stories set in the best-selling world of Legends & Lattes. Baldree does one thing and he does it well. These are cute and quaint and that's about it, but what more do you really want from these stories?

BROTHER - ANIA AHLBORN Relentless misery porn. I thought the characterisations were great, the big twists were well plotted, and Ahlborn is a fantastic writer. I was compelled to constantly be reading this book. But did I actually like? Honestly, I don't know. I think it's maybe too miserable.

THE BOOK OF ACCIDENTS - CHUCK WENDIG Wendig writes books that just hook you from the beginning with colourful, compelling, sometimes larger than life characters, intriguing mysteries, and propulsive storytelling full of twists & turns. TBOA is epic in scope and so much more than it seems at first!

THIS MOVIE DOESN'T END THE WAY WE WANT - HAILEY PIPER Blitzed through this in two days! Piper keeps you hooked; this is a great execution of the cursed film trope. Feels like a rant on "AI Artistry" alongside being about not letting the demons of your past rule your future.

THE STAND - STEPHEN KING Re-read. The plague section and its immediate aftermath is some of my all time favourite King writing. Watching the world fall apart is so harrowing and dreadful and readable. But the 300 pages of meetings and committees is DULL. I also love the ending... sue me!

CARRIE - STEPHEN KING Re-read. Even better the second time around. This still holds up shockingly well 50+ years on, and my sympathy for Carrie only grows. I'm surprised at how I also felt a bit sorry for Margaret White this time too (but not too sad). 242 pages and so much depth, I love this one!

THE TWO LIES OF FAVEN SYTHE - MEGAN O'KEEFE Colourful crystal chaos lesbian pirates in space! Such a fun adventure that runs at a clip, always changing the status quo & keeping you hooked. Some of the most unique sci-fi imagery. Gave me Final Fantasy vibes (Sci-Final Fantasy?). More please!

DEVIL INSIDE - CLAY MCLEOD CHAPMAN Obsession and possession collide in this horromance. Jordan is an unlikeable guy, whereas Lilith the demon feels more like a force of nature grappling with human constructs. It's darker than the premise seems, but it's utterly readable.

WIZARD & GLASS - STEPHEN KING Charyou Tree... This book is always a joy to read. Roland's story is one laced with love and loss, hope and tragedy, and this may be one of King's best "small town horrors". The journey to the Tower may halt for 800 pages, but its the best 800 pages in the series 🤠

THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS - STEPHEN GRAHAM JONES SGJ has such a unique voice, one that takes me a while to get into the rhythm of, but one that always has something to offer. Like TBHH, TOGI is a novel that has so much meat to it, and oftentimes, discussing the themes is just as good as the book itself

THE PARIAH - ANTHONY RYAN A very strong character voice cannot hide an aimless, meandering narrative. This feels like a prelude to the actual story in book 2 & 3. However, the exploration of figureheads and iconic people, and the feverish devotion they conjure, was masterful and interesting.

RETRIBUTION FALLS - CHRIS WOODING Action-packed steampunk fantasy at its finest! I love the anti-hero crew of the Ketty Jay and the swashbuckling adventure they go on to clear their names. This was exciting and cinematic, with plenty of deep, surprising character moments to boot!

UNIVERSAL HARVESTER - JOHN DARNIELLE I don't think this should be marketed as horror, as it's essential a literary novel with some mild creepiness. That aside, I did find parts disturbing, and I enjoyed its look at mothers, the absence of important figures in our lives, and the effect it has on us.

MORTAL ENGINES - PHILIP REEVE A steampunk, sci-fantasy dystopian post-apocalyptic adventure that was a whole lot of fun and a whole lot more brutal than I was expecting! Super inventive, great characters, and a good look at governments devouring all they can get. On to book 2 soon!
Cover art for Mortal Engines by Philip Reeve. Cover art by Ian McQue. It shows a tiered city with buildings stacked on top of each other, all of which is placed on top of a platform with rolling tracks, as this mobile city travels across a muddy, barren land. In the foreground at the bottom of the artwork, a lone figure wearing a red scarf stands tall staring at the city with their back to us. Airships float around this moving city.

BODIES OF WORK - CLAY MCLEOD CHAPMAN Clay always finds a way to take a unique storytelling perspective and spin it in a way that makes it very compelling to read. This is a wholly sad novella to read, all about how the victims of serial killers are lost to the fame and focus of their murderers.

HAPPY HOUR - GEMMA AMOR A revenge story garnished with an twist of lemon and an umbrella. Happy Hour gets deep into the head of our main swanky bar owning protagonist, who I am still trying to decide if he is a psycho or not. Glorious satire of 90s/00s UK celeb gossip and club culture.

I am delighted to publicly reveal the cover artwork for my upcoming series, MEMORIES OF FIRE! It includes dragons like you've never seen before, meddling gods, flintlock vibes, and an animal companion MEMORIES OF FIRE is an adult epic fantasy quartet, and my most ambitious series yet!
A young man with a pied crow on his shoulder and a glaive on his back walks through the ruins of a battlefield. Blackened swords and arrows litter the ground and ash rains down from above. A god-killing Reaper dragon flies in front of him and stares out at us, flames in its jaws. This is the cover art for the upcoming Memories of Fire - an epic fantasy quartet. Book 1, Faithless Gods, will release at the end of 2026

NEON MOON - GRACE R. REYNOLDS A slasher novella that weirdly reminded me of Terrifier (even though this isn't just pure gore-porn like that movie), but with a country and western theme. Enjoyable, but it does have things that didn't work for me. Check the trigger warnings before you dive into this

A SHORT STAY IN HELL - STEVEN L. PECK The award for most misleading title goes to... But jokes aside, this is an existential, philosophical crisis in novella form. Incomprehensible in its scope. In just 99 pages, this story manages to ask questions bigger than any of us will ever be able to answer.
