Book Review – The Church on Wormhill Street by Christopher Henderson
This is the second instalment in the investigations of the mighty Harry Undine. I previously read, and thoroughly enjoyed, Christopher Henderson’s novel The Horror at Lavender Edge, and you can see how much I loved it right here. When I… Read More ›
Book Review – Suffer the Darkness by Yolanda Sfetsos

Book Review – The Broken Darkness by Theresa Braun
I can safely say that I am a fan of Theresa Braun’s work. I’ve read a few of her stories over the years, so when I heard about a big collection with oodles of these tales within, I couldn’t really… Read More ›
