Timy is reviewing Sin Eater, the second book in Mike Shel’s Epic Fantasy series, Iconoclasts.
“It definitely steps up from book one and opens up the scope of the story within the world, building up the foundation of something I expect to be a great ending to the trilogy.”
Arina reviews Kali Wallace’s laters Sci-Fi Noir novel, Dead Space.
“The power of Dead Space’s narrative is the inescapable analogy it draws with our current society and how greed, inequality, and bondage may be carried with us when we breach the boundaries of space. But it’s also allowed to dream with the way it imagines technology.”
As promised, we continue reviewing the SPFBO 6 Finalists. Our next one up is Darkness Forged by Matt Larkin, chosen by Kitty G.
I rarely write DNF reviews, but I decided to do so with The Forever King by Ben Galley, the first book in his new series, The Scalussen Chronicles. We didn’t match, but you might.
Jen and I both reviewed A Fool’s Hope, the excellent follow up to Mike Shackle’s Epic Grimdark Fantasy novel, We Are the Dead, the second book in The Last War series.
As promised, we continue reviewing the SPFBO 6 Finalists. Our next one up is The Combat Codes by Alexander Darwin, chosen by the Fantasy Book Critic team.
Timy’s review of The Second Bell, Gabriela Houston debut novel released by Angry Robot on March 9th. A Slavic inspired Dark Fantasy tale about parenthood and deep-rooted beliefs.
Arina reviews The Moonsteel Crown, the first book in Stephen Deas’ new series, Dominion. Out now by Angry Robot!
“A fun as hell adventure of betrayal filled with murdering bastards, unpredictability, dead men, and lots of chaotic stabbing, shrewdly disguised as a royal corruption story.”
Now that we entered the fourth month of the SPFBO 6 Finals, we continue reviewing them. Our next one up is The Lost War by Justin Lee Anderson, chosen by the BookNest team.
Arina reviews Yaroslav Barsukov’s Tower of Mud and Straw, a Gaslamp Science Fantasy novella.
“Tower of Mud and Straw makes perfect use of the novella format, an awesome gaslamp science fantasy with a mystery punch. I can see myself coming back to this world again and again.”
