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 […]

Review: Jester by Tim Carter

July 2, 2025 by Dave Lawson Leave a Comment

Jester by Tim Carter is a rollicking good time. A underdog story that you can’t help but fall in love with. And most importantly, a story that surprises you.  Which shouldn’t have surprised me. Carter’s first novella Majordomo seemed like it was going to be a funny dnd-based fantasy and then it absolutely massacred my […]
