Review: Wraith and the Revolution by A.J. Calvin

April 28, 2025 by Adam Bassett Leave a Comment

A story of resilience and a rejection of some of the worst traits of humanity, Wraith and the Revolution is a surprisingly hopeful and sincere novel.

Review: Gothictown by Emily Carpenter

March 25, 2025 by Adam Bassett Leave a Comment

Gothictown got its hooks in me and would not let go. It’s carefully-crafted slow build, then a frantic race to the end.

Review: The Feeding by Anthony Ryan

March 10, 2025 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Parts I Am Legend, parts The Last of Us, and with perhaps a certain whiff of Fallout or Mad Max-esque fortified settlements, (just to name drop a few IPs in there for the vibes for ya) The Feeding stands on its own two feet as a brand-new entry among the ranks of post apocalypse without any of the tired clichés but with all of the beloved tropes you want to find in this subgenre. And bear in mind, this is not a zombie book. Not quite.
