Violence & Vigilance David T. List An incredible tour de force of Dark Fantasy from new to me indie author David T. List. This is a deserved SPFBO XI Finalist in this year’s competition and I had so many good things to say about this behemoth of a book. It scratches the itch incredibly well.

A tale as old as time, a song as old as rhyme: demons and the beasts. I may get nightmares but they’re worth it for this triumph to cement itself as a deeply inspirational work of fiction. Read my full review and analysis at SFFInsiders to see just why this novel is receiving such high praise. Q: What other religious horror IPs are you drawn to? #medievalbooks #darkfantasy #darkcatholichorror #medievalhistoricalfiction #booktok

Unintentional Lord of the Rings and Hobbit paper ASMR 😌 Thank you @HarperCollins /@HarperCollinsUK for offering screaming deals on these Tolkien Illustrated premium hardback editions, two of my most cherished books. I had in the past gifted this edition of tLotR and now I’m so glad to finally own it myself. I planned to do a voice over here but who cares, I’m in a bit of a content drought anyway if you hadn’t noticed (SPFBO semifinalist readings are keeping me busy!). In the end I found the natu

Recently received a lovely message that I had to share, with permission, of course. I love that my reviews and critiques are having a positive impact, even if it’s in some small measure. They help me become a better writer, and if I can help encourage others to think about the craft in more depth as well, then I can live with that. Been a difficult few months and have been in the midst of one of my worst depressive episodes in many years. So these bright spots can mean a lot. Thank you everyone

Assassin's Quest Robin Hobb We finally did it. The Farseer Trilogy came to an end for me months ago, but it's only now I'm finally getting this review out. Oops! To make it up I've tried to make this a banger. Split into TWO sections, this has been formatted for the ultimate reading pleasure: 1) Spoiler-Free Trilogy and Book review, and 2) Even longer Full-Spoilers Book review and analysis. I won't sugar coat it, this was my least favorite of the three Farseer books. It was still beautiful and b
