An Intro to Indie Sci-Fi For Those Wondering Where to Start
The idea for this came to me several months ago, probably during the latest flair up of “indie/self pub is inferior” or something similar, and you may have seen (or want to check out) the similar posts for both fantasy and horror suggestions. The point of which is not to argue, but to highlight some […]
An Intro to Indie Horror For Those Wondering Where to Start
The idea for this came to me several months ago, probably during the latest flair up of “indie/self pub is inferior” or something similar, and you may have seen (or want to check out) where I started with fantasy suggestions.

An Intro to Indie Fantasy For Those Wondering Where to Start
The idea for this came to me several months ago, probably during the latest flair up of “indie/self pub is inferior” or something similar. The point of which is not to argue, but to highlight some writers that are either underrated, or great examples of where to start with indie fantasy. My original idea was […]

David S’ Top 5 Books I Read in 2023
This year I read a lot less than I had planned. I only finished 17 books and 7 of those were either graphic novels/manga or novellas. However, for me that means that the books I did get through were almost all really good. In this list I have 4 books that I rated 9.5/10 and […]

Eleni’s Top Reads of 2023
Hello again dear reader or listener, remember the week between Xmas and NY doesn’t count for Santa’s list, so I hope you’ve been having fun these last few days of 2023!
If I’m being honest 2023 was a bit of a mixed bag and life stuff plus the undertaking of an MRes meant much less leisure reading for me this year. If I hadn’t signed up for so many ARCs in fact, I doubt I’d have read as much as I did in the end. But I am also pleased to say I had some great reads regardless and now I’m gonna do my best to give you a top five. This was the year I leaned a bit more into the thriller/horror/Gothic ambiances even though in this list you’ll also find various subgenres of fantasy such as steampunk, epic, and historical fantasy, as well as some romance.
Ganesh’s (Pippin Took) top reads of 2023
Doing a top reads post sounded very exciting until I actually had to do it. Good thing is I don’t have to do one for another whole year. I will say straight up that following Indie authors on Bookstagram/Twitter is destructive to one’s TBR. They keep bigging up one another’s books and have nice covers […]
A.J.’s Top 10 Reads of 2023
It was hard to narrow down my top reads of the year. For anyone who has followed me on social media or through my blog, you know I read a lot. This year’s total was 70 books, which I think is a record for me. And it was tough to pick only 10. I’m a […]
Charlie Battison’s Best Horror of 2023
And just like that another year goes by! To be selfish for just a second, 2023 has been a great year for me and my reading. I finally feel like my university hangover has come to an end and so I have read more than ever before! At the time of writing, that is 50 […]
