Review: The Memory of the Ogisi (The Forever Desert) by Moses Ose Utomi

July 14, 2025 by Laura Leave a Comment

The cover of The Memory of the Ogisi by Moses Ose Utomi. The image shows a brown building with large green hands hovering over it at the top. At the bottom of the image, a shadowed figure walks through a desert with some trees. This bottom portion of the image is upside down. The tile of the book overlaps the image in green block letters.

Synopsis: The epic conclusion to Moses Ose Utomi’s critically-acclaimed Forever Desert series, The Memory of the Ogisi shatters every truth, interrogates every lie, and is a story of oppression you’ll never forget. Even deserts have a beginning. Even gardens have an end. Even water has a story. The City of a Thousand Stories stands resolute on the […]

Book Review: A Graveyard for Heroes (Dreams of Dust and Steel #2) by Michael Michel

July 1, 2025 by Andy Peloquin Leave a Comment

TL;DR Review: Ambitious, imaginative, and incredibly compelling. The most epic grimdark world I’ve read since Abercrombie. Synopsis: Treachery looms across the land. The Scarborn have deposed the once-great Ironlight family. With scores to settle, the lowborn shake rust from their knives and trade allegiances for a promise of blood while the highborn rally their armies. […]

Book Review: Words of Power by Shami Stovall

June 24, 2025 by Andy Peloquin Leave a Comment

TL;DR Review: A new approach to leveling up and gaining power. A progression fantasy hero unlike any other, and a fresh addition to the genre. Synopsis: Power is not given. It’s taken. In the Tze Empire, spirits and demons rule the wilds, but Ring Warlocks control civilization. For Rimon, the son of a courtesan and […]

June 20, 2025 by Bill Adams Leave a Comment

Synopsis: While investigating the kidnappings of young, impoverished girls, Arianell Acraea uncovers a sinister conspiracy involving rogue Champions of Ares and forbidden sacrificial rituals fuelled by a magic that defies the laws of the Supreme Goddess herself.

Book Review: The Palace of Illusions by Rowenna Miller

June 10, 2025 by Andy Peloquin Leave a Comment

TL;DR Review: Slow in pace but rich in wonder. A quirky character you’ll enjoy following as she discovers the world of magic is real—and there is a threat only she can stop. Synopsis: The Palace of Illusions brings readers to a Paris breathless with excitement at the dawn of the twentieth century, where for a select […]

Review: The Veil by E H Bradley

June 9, 2025 by Nick Snape Leave a Comment

Synopsis: They would have you believe, (the police and mainstream media), that I, Charlie Macall, and my friends, were the deadliest killers since Manson or Bundy. That’s only half true. Yes, we’ve killed, but to put us in the same category as those two I’ve just mentioned, is wrong, a fallacy. For starters, they’d have […]

Book Review: Everybody Wants to Rule the World Except Me (Dark Lord Davi #2) by Django Wexler

June 5, 2025 by Andy Peloquin Leave a Comment

TL;DR Review: Beautifully balanced between epic and cozy, it’s an adventure as action-packed as it is heartwarming. Synopsis: Dark Lord Davi rules the kingdom, but she must now break the time loop that binds her in this hilariously bloody conclusion to the Dark Lord Davi duology. After countless failures (let’s not dwell on it), Davi […]

Book Review: Of Monsters and Mainframes by Barbara Truelove

June 3, 2025 by Andy Peloquin Leave a Comment

TL;DR: Van Helsing, but as played by a Murderbot-style ship’s AI, with the delightfully cozy and heartwarming flavor of Becky Chambers The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. Synopsis: Spaceships aren’t programmed to seek revenge—but for Dracula, Demeter will make an exception. Demeter just wants to do her shuttling humans between Earth and Alpha […]

Book Review: Crueler Mercies by Maren Chase

June 2, 2025 by Andy Peloquin Leave a Comment

TL;DR Review: Rapunzel meets Man in the Iron Mask. A helpless, naïve prisoner becomes a cunning, revenge-driven queen. Synopsis: “Vita’s rage overflowed until she was prepared to drown in it, and she knew that she would never again dam this anger to please another.” After nine years as the people’s beloved princess in the sun-soaked […]
