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: 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: 12 Gauge – Dustin LaValley
12 Gauge is a collection of three very different novellas from Dustin LaValley. Novella 1 was my favourite of the three; It ticked all the boxes for this reader. The other two were damn entertaining, particularly The Deceived, which came a close second. Let’s get stuck into what I thought… Spinner starts out as…
Book review: The Void (Alex Hunter 7) – Greig Beck
When I first showed the cover of the new Alex Hunter novel to my 8-year-old son, he nearly pissed his pants with excitement. I told him in my best movie voice “One day, son, all of this will be yours.” as I held my Kindle in front of his face. I often do this,…

Book review: A Particular Darkness – Robert E. Dunn
Hurricane Katrina Williams is back in A Particular Darkness, the second novel that follows on soon after the excellent A Living Grave. Dunn’s first Katrina Williams novel was a book that sat a little outside of my comfort zone, though I was still willing to give it a go purely because I’ve enjoyed Robert’s…
Book review: Behind Her Eyes – Sarah Pinborough
Much has been written about the latest novel from Sarah Pinborough. The #WTFTHATENDING hashtag was a regular occurrence on my Twitter feed when first the book was released, though I tried to distance myself from the book talk whenever possible to avoid spoilers. I succeeded, and in doing so found Behind Her Eyes to…
Book review: A Lesson in Violence (She Rides Shotgun) – Jordan Harper
Jordan Harper’s novel seems to have been through numerous name changes for whatever reason? Anyway, it isn’t really important, all you need to know is that this is one of my favourite books of the year and I can’t recommend it enough. The plot for the novel isn’t anything particularly new. A con gets released…
