This is the second instalment in the Tristan Grieves Fragments, and is just as messed up and weird as the first, which I previously reviewed right about here! As with Fragment no.1, this tale is laced with lyrical prose that… Read More ›

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 ›

Book Review – The Jam by Dan Soule
I don’t believe there is a single person in this world who enjoys traffic jams. I’d even go as far to say the majority of people despise them. So imagine a story set during an aforementioned jam. How can that… Read More ›
