Inevitably, I always found myself drifting toward a distinct, spinning, metal, bookrack. This creaking carousel of haunted dreams was in a quiet, deliberately far-removed, corner of the library and housed—what I can only describe as—the most consequential collection of titles that this future horror author would ever stumble across.
Review: Dreams of the Dying (Enderal #1) by Nicolas Lietzau
As you can probably tell by now, my feelings on Dreams of the Dying are really mixed. It seems like everything I liked about it also happened to be its greatest flaws. Take the worldbuilding, for instance. I loved how deep Lietzau went with the worldbuilding, giving us two unique cultures and fantastical creatures galore.

For the next several months we will be bringing you a guest post every Wednesday from a neurodivergent author.

Review: Iron Widow (Iron Widow #1) by Xiran Jay Zhao
Iron Widow is an astonishing mash of everything that gets me excited about a novel – it’s giant, transforming mechs against an alien invasion. It’s one woman’s fight against a patriarchal society and certainly fits into the Handmaid’s Tale X Pacific Rim mould it’s been pitched as, but it’s so very much more. I’d dare say it’s got a pinch of The Way of Kings in there with reference to the Hundun Waste and the ultimate goal of liberating it. It’s a beauty of a novel and would resonate with comic, SFF fans everywhere.
