SERAPHINA'S LAMENT – Sarah Chorn's debut novel will blow grimdark fans away

Every once in a while you read a book that’s unlike anything you’ve ever read. Seraphina’s Lament is that book. Part fantasy, part zombie, and all grimdark, the book blew me away. Sarah Chorn’s prose is lyrical, heartbreaking poetry in so many places that I just had to stop and digest some of the merciless beauty at times. Seraphina is a fire talent, a kind of Dark Phoenix in a broken body that seethes with rage. Her twin, Varyen, is a water elemental: shapeless and lost with

THE FAIRY POND – Jason Black's beautiful story about love, sacrifice, and the unseen

THE FAIRY POND – Jason Black's beautiful story about love, sacrifice, and the unseen

This has been the best month for short stories. This one left me with bittersweet tears and a chill in my soul. Black’s carefully woven tapestry of words brings us close to a simpler time, when innocence and magic exist hand in hand. Young Nevan and his grandfather can see the dark shapes swimming in the pond, but no one else can. The boy can’t understand why his grandfather is so frightened that Nevan can see the fairies, too. Nevan’s curiosity brings him too close to the po

Christian Baines: SINS OF THE SON is not your average vampire/shifter trope

Christian Baines: SINS OF THE SON is not your average vampire/shifter trope

Christian Baines’ SINS OF THE SON is my favorite kind of pulp novel. Morally ambiguous supernatural beings, intrigue, clandestine organizations, and eldritch creepies? Sign me up! The novel starts off with a bang and doesn’t let up until it’s taken you on one hell of a ride. I give it a solid 4.5 stars. The book is actually part of the Arcadia Trust series. I hadn’t read the first two (something I will have to change, as I really enjoyed this world). It reads just fine as a

The Harrowing of Twilight – enter and be delightfully lost forever in J.M. Guillen's Irra

The Harrowing of Twilight – enter and be delightfully lost forever in J.M. Guillen's Irra

I read The Herald of Autumn, the first book featuring Tommy Maple, a couple of years ago. When I heard there was going to be a second story, I lost my everloving flipping mind. J.M. Guillen is a madman who writes books in multiple genres, all of which tie back together battling the same eldritch forces across time and space. I’ve read several of the others, which are fantastic in their own right, especially Rationality Zero. But Tommy Maple’s story holds a special place in m
