Here is yet another offering from Keith Anthony Baird, an author whose work I am a big fan of. This short story is one that is enjoyable – although you may feel a little wrong for thinking so – right… Read More ›

Book Review – Necromantic by Katherine Kitchener
Found lurking within these pages are 12 short stories guaranteed to set the creep factor whirring. On the whole I had a great time with this one. Each tale managed to chill, and the writing was top notch, constantly driving… Read More ›
Book Review – Perdido Street Station by China Mieville
This beast of a book is the kind of tome that would normally take me a good few weeks to get through, and build up my arm muscles quite significantly. But instead I sailed through it like a ravenous slake… Read More ›
Book Review – Burntbridge Boys by John F Leonard

Book Review – The Midwives by Duncan Ralston
Having thoroughly ‘devoured’ The Midwives (which is certainly an intentional pun) I feel compelled to write about just how damn great it is. Ahem, so I will. This novel of folklore, macabre practices, a killer on the loose looking for… Read More ›
