Book review: Triple Axe – Scott Cole
Scott Cole’s Triple Axe sees a group of adult entertainers being targeted by a crazed killer who utilises a very cool but odd weapon when relieving these deep-throating darlings of their lifeblood.

Book review: Bird Box – Josh Malerman
Bird Box is a great book and that’s all you really need to know. I bought this for my Kindle a while back but my review queue prevented me from reading it. I’ve been disappointed by a few recently hyped books, so naturally, I approached this one with caution. Any lingering thoughts that Bird…

Book review: The Writhing Skies – Betty Rocksteady
The reviewing of this book has been some time in the making, mainly due to reasons of ill-health but I also needed to take a bit of a break from the blog. However, now I’m back! In black, some might say as my wardrobe consists of little beyond dark t-shirts and denim. Alas, dear…
Book review: Frostbite – dave Jeffery
It was nearing the end of winter and the Grim Reader was in desperate need of some action-packed nonsense, Severed Press style! Along came Frostbite by Dave Jeffery. Frostbite came across as exactly the sort of book I was looking for. A group of hardened ex-special ops are sent on a mission to find the son…
Book review: Timeshift: Tales of Time – Anthology
As Cher’s Greatest Hits sang from my speakers I knew it was time, time for a change at beavisthebookhead.com. Timeshift: Tales of Time is perhaps unsurprisingly a collection of time travel stories from such luminaries as Robert Silverberg, Kevin J Anderson and others. Science fiction isn’t really my bag, particularly in the long form….
Book review: Overlord – David Wood & Alan Baxter
I had a great time with Primordial: David Wood and Alan Baxter’s previous offering featuring the rugged Australian Sam Aston. It more than satisfied my thirst for dino fiction with some great action scenes and likeable characters, alongside a slightly unusual Finnish location. This time, Wood and Baxter take Sam Aston to Antarctica in…
