Review: The Return of the Knights (The Dance of Light #1) by Gregory Kontaxis
Everything soared into the mythological and the fantastical before effortlessly landing back into the plot to screw over the scenery-chewing baddie. Real satisfying reading.
Review: The Death I Gave Him by Em X. Liu

Review: New Yesterday by Frasier Armitage
The literary equivalent of paddling in a dingy at the shallow end before being sucked into a riptide and finding yourself white water rafting … but with added time travel!
Review: World Running Down by Al Hess
There’s a huge amount of love in this book. WRD was meant to be a palette cleanser for me in the all-you-can-eat buffet of space opera sci-fi out there at the moment but it shone as a wonderful book in its own right.
