Review: The Free Bastards (The Lot Lands #3) by Jonathan French

October 2, 2021 by David W Leave a Comment

The Free Bastards is a final book that takes everything we hold dear, all the cool, badass, components we’ve loved from the first two and throws a dash more of court intrigue that’s a weird fit with mongrels around, more strange magic and ramps it all up to a hundred! It’s a book that knows itself and ain’t scared to flaunt it. It’s a tapestry of all that the Lot Lands had to offer in books 1 and 2, woven into a tight picture then set ablaze; let me tell you this, reader, when the fire that is Oats starts, it doesn’t stop.

Review: Elder Race by Adrian Tchaikovsky

September 29, 2021 by David W Leave a Comment

Elder Race begins as a classic fantasy story with a young princess out on a quest to prove herself by going to get the reclusive of a sorcerer to come fight the demon hurting her people. However, this is Tchaikovsky, so nothing is quite as it seems.

If a different kind of fantasy story mixed with science intrigues you, I highly recommend picking this up. Well written, good characters and filled with interesting ideas and developments, this is a great novella.

Guest Post: Creating a Complete World by Gabriela Houston

September 29, 2021 by David W Leave a Comment

Worldbuilding is a crucial element of all storytelling. And I don’t just refer to speculative fiction’s building of worlds unknown, but rather to the space the novel’s characters inhabit, be it familiar or unfamiliar. The worldbuilding elements tell us about not just about our characters’ environment, but how they react to the space, how it […]

Review: The Liar of Red Valley by Walter Goodwater

September 26, 2021 by David W Leave a Comment

(The Liar of Red Valley) is a fantastic book full of magic creatures, cool magic and fast-paced plot. While I didn’t get behind some of the side characters, that in itself can play into a massive plot twist that I’m sure no one will see coming. However, it is a shorter book than I’d have liked so saves on going too in-depth. I believe it’s a stylistic choice that all of the magic creatures aren’t described because the human eye can’t behold, the human mind can’t decipher, what they are but it sometimes left a blank space in my imagination with it. However, it was a cool way to deal with beings we simply wouldn’t know how to describe and leaves an original twist on what their appearances might be in that everyone reading will see something different.
