Teo Kos is a writer from Rijeka, Croatia. He writes in native Croatian and English, and so far has had short stories and novellas published in both domestic and foreign publications.

Teo also dabbles in e-book design and formatting, something he very much enjoys doing.

His literary influences are authors who write very good books.

His aural inspiration is Heavy Metal and Ronnie James Dio.

His spiritual teacher is Robert Anton Wilson, who has said everything worth knowing about anything. All else is buzz and useless noise.

And finally, just like the Demon Cat, Teo has approximate knowledge of many things and he likes it that way.

Uf, nije mi drago nekom romanu dati jedinicu, pogotovo kad je riječ o domaćim autorima. S obzirom da nam je književna scena vrlo mršava i treba podržavati domaće autore, uvijek se trudim da nađem barem nešto pozitivno u štivu čak i ako mi se načelno ...more

Nick Kyme is not one of the crowd's favorites, and I actually wasn't impressed with his writing before. However, judging by pure writing style, I've found "Vulkan Lives" an improvement. I could say that I almost enjoyed the novel.

Moje prvo susretanje s pisanjem riječke autorice Moree Banićević. Privukla klasifikacija žanra: obiteljska horor-bajka za djecu i mlade. Za razliku od prethodnog romana što sam pročitao, "Kora i začarani izvor" od Franke Blažić, ovaj ipak više naginj ...more

Nisam baš ciljana dobna skupina ovog romana, koji doista je namijenjen mčađem uzrastu, ali... dobar roman je dobar roman, zar ne?

Ako je čitatelj osnovnoškolac, posebno niži razredi, ovo je knjiga za čistu peticu. Franka piše lijepo, pitko, dovitljivo

Be Useful by Arnold Schwarzenegger

"Be Useful" is Arnie's guide to living a fulfilling life. It's a very interesting read, though it's teachings won't be applicable to everyone's life simply because it's based on what worked for him.

Given his truly humble beginnings, nobody can accuse

This year I re-watched the Spartacus series, and then decided to find out what history books existed about the events. Most online sources seemed to recommend Barry Strauss' "The Spartacus War".

Robert E. Howard
“Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.”
Robert E. Howard

Robert E. Howard
“I have known many gods. He who denies them is as blind as he who trusts them too deeply. I seek not beyond death. It may be the blackness averred by the Nemedian skeptics, or Crom's realm of ice and cloud, or the snowy plains and vaulted halls of the Nordheimer's Valhalla. I know not, nor do I care. Let me live deep while I live; let me know the rich juices of red meat and stinging wine on my palate, the hot embrace of white arms, the mad exultation of battle when the blue blades flame and crimson, and I am content. Let teachers and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion. I know this: if life is illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and am content.”
Robert E. Howard and L. Sprague De Camp, Queen of the Black Coast

Robert Anton Wilson
“...when dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases. ”
Robert Anton Wilson, Cosmic Trigger - Volume I: Final Secret of the Illuminati
