A new book set in the DFZ?! Clear my schedule! I preordered this one on the day I learned it existed, and then immediately started reading it as soon as it appeared on the kindle. Hooray! The DFZ, the metropolis formerly known as Detroit, is the world’s most magical city with a population of nine... Continue Reading →

Review: Killer Dungeon by Phil Tucker
And it all comes down to this! I've really enjoyed this series thusfar and so obviously I couldn't hold myself back from finishing it as soon as I could. I'm entering the endgame. Even as I gain new allies, new gear, and greater understanding of Albertus' true plans, the odds are growing more extreme. Whom... Continue Reading →

Review: Nightmare Keep by Phil Tucker
I've been looking forward to getting this one into my ear-holes since I finished Death March.

I even managed to read it within the month too, which is a boon. In the peace following the Great Mage Hunt, the king’s long-time mistress is revealed as a sorceress.... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Review: Lords of Asylum by Kevin Wright
I was rather excited to get to this one, because when Wol likes a book, I tend to generally also like that book! Of course... this isn't universal... but ehhh close enough. 😀 Waylaid in the wilds, they left him for dead… Sir Luther Slythe Krait is a bad man. He tried outrunning his past,... Continue Reading →
