| Year One is a classic Batman story it's taken me too long to get around to. I worried it wouldn't gel with me for what I now realise were probably false impressions of Frank Miller derived from later projects - but at least in this instance, his qual ...more | |

| Often compared to one of my favourite book series, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is more than Discworld humour made sci fi - it instead takes absurdist comedy in a different direction via a throw it at the wall approach to philosophical comedy ...more | |

C.F. Page deepens and polishes the mythology he started in 'Born of Blood' to craft a fascinating and deeply investing reading experience. The Swallowed Town captured my interest with the world Page constructed, yes, but moreso his tone, the vibe, and ...more |

Born of Blood is an impressive, bleak, perfectly paced story of grounded cosmic horror that ramps up in tension right up to its fittingly graphic end. This is about 70 pages of confusing but atmosphere drenched storytelling that introduces characters, ...more |

| With a skeleton based on Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Fall of the House of Usher' and meat that is entirely T. Kingfisher's own, this is a relatively short, creepy read that would have been deeper and more compelling still if it wasn't fighting against its ...more | |

“I screamed last night, and felt the sharp, reflective elements boring into my skull. I felt such deep, intense devotions, the kind of emotions it is only possible to experience in nightmares. But I was not dreaming, I could not sleep. I was wide awake. In pain. Debating with my own reflection which one of us should own our veins.”

“Glass always drew my eyes, or my mind. That reflection — the mirror, and the Other Body inside it. I wanted to turn off my mind but it was impossible. So many terrible, monstrous things buzzed around inside of it like electric knife blades, cutting, cutting, cutting.”

“Acting is my whole life. It’s this one thing I am good at. But what if it isn’t good at me? I don’t look like an actor, actors are supposed to be beautiful. I look like me. And that isn’t good enough.”
