The States

1 October 2024

Tildy Sullivan is an emotionally broken young woman, and doormat to her more vocal and overbearing family in this interesting look into the psyche and soul of an heiress with regrets. Part romance mixed with soft science fiction and a […]

A Pub in the Underworld

22 September 2024

This was absolutely my cup of tea, or rather given it’s a pub, my pint of ale. So much so that before I had even finished book one, I’d purchased book two just so I didn’t have to leave the

Dungeons Just Wanna Have Fun

18 September 2024

Ugh, this was cringey. What starts with a lopsided deal that is essentially the main character getting forced into eternal slavery doesn’t get better by throwing loads of women at the dude. So, let’s back up a bit. The Dungeon

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas Is Cancelled

10 September 2024

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas Is Cancelled by Craig Kimber is sort of like if Shaun of the Dead was an 80s-style sex comedy mixed with a little bit of Mad Max. A group of no-hopers manage

Beware of Chicken 3

30 August 2024

I went in expecting more cosy farm life with the occasional burst of chicken-based Xianxia-land bullshit (as Jin would describe it). We still get that, but also where the story stretches its legs and actually takes leap forward. The comforting tone

Mall Priest

20 August 2024

Horror, humour, and all the hallmarks of an 80s cheesy horror flick rolled into a fantastically engaging story. Think over-the-top style violence and mayhem you’d get in horror movies of that era, and you’ll be on the right path. It’s

Beware of Chicken 2

I admit to waiting longer than I should have to get to book two in the Beware of Chicken series. I was a little worried after reading a few posts were people complained that the story seemed to stall and

ShipCore

3 August 2024

After finishing Gateway, I was in the mood for more space adventures. Scrolling through my wish list on Audible, I found “ShipCore” tucked away and decided to jump into it. This was so good! The story starts with Alex, who
