Review: The Bladed Faith (Vagrant Gods #1) by David Dalglish

March 9, 2022 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

The Bladed Faith is the first in David Dalgishes’ new series, Vagrant Gods. Dalglish, who has proven himself a master of action over the last several years (and is fresh off the phenomenal finale of his last series, The Keepers) has managed to publish yet another fascinating fantasy series. I came for the amazing cover and intriguing synopsis and stayed for the fantastic fight sequences, amazing storyline, and compelling characters.

Review: Dead Star (The Triple Stars #1) by Simon Kewin

Review: Zero Day Threat (The Ungovernable #1) by R.M. Olson

March 6, 2022 by Paige Leave a Comment

the cover for zero day threat which shows five people standing in front of a futuristic jet

Zero Day Threat is a semi-finalist in the SPSFC! This is my personal review and does not reflect the thoughts of the rest of my team.

Zero Day Threat has a trope that we all love, found family. R.M. Olsen takes a ragtag group of criminals and turns them into a family, who might fight at times, but ultimately work together to perform a heist to steal a piece of technology. We mainly read from Jez’s point of view, an incredible pilot who can perform every manoeuvre possible with her arms tied behind her back, literally.

Review: Soul Stealer Graham Masterton

March 6, 2022 by Dan Smith Leave a Comment

Soul Stealer is a horrifying and compelling page-turner that really pushes the edge of the genre and what’s readable; there’s no hiding it, some of the scenes in this book are horror in its most acute form.

Review: The Girl and the Moon (Book of the Ice #3) by Mark Lawrence

March 5, 2022 by Arun Leave a Comment

Review: Age of Ash (Kithamar #1) by Daniel Abraham

March 2, 2022 by Adrian M. Gibson Leave a Comment

As a lover of science fiction, I can appreciate the breaking of the status quo. Every so often, genres like cyberpunk or post-apocalyptic fiction came in to stir shit up and make it messier, so to say. But fantasy, I’ve found, is much more comfortable resting on its laurels—challenges to foundational fantasy conventions have been slower, and few and far between. In the last decade or so, though, the intention from authors to actively challenge fantasy’s history has been growing.

Daniel Abraham’s newest novel Age of Ash, book one in The Kithamar Trilogy, seems to do just that. It tackles the notion of “epic fantasy,” questioning the epic-ness of it all and how big battles and a fast pace have dominated that landscape. But beyond that, Age of Ash is a heartfelt story that grounds itself in genuine characters in grim circumstances. What follows is a novel that is epic in its ideas and execution, but relatable in its perspectives and emotions.
