“I realised that J.D. Allen was a talented author thanks to reading They’re Coming To Get You, Barbara! but finishing Silver Sky has proven that he is on another level altogether – there are horror authors I have been reading for years that have not managed to pack into entire novels  the disquieting, haunting horror that Allen has poured into this one story. Silver Sky is a hidden gem of the horror genre, one that needs to be read as widely and as frequently as possible, and I for one intend to make it as widely known as I possibly can. Read this story now, and then go and talk to your parents and your grandparents and your loved ones – especially in times like this.”

“…Astrum is another fantastic slice of weird horror from Thompson and Nictitating Press, and I eagerly look forward to his next work; Thompson is going places in the Horror genre, and I want to be right there with him to see where he goes…”

“Bel Nemeton: Caledfwlch is an absolute triumph for Jon Black and 18thWall Productions – an intelligent, lighting-fast and immensely entertaining globetrotting thriller, one that skilfully blends together a fast-paced modern-day treasure hunt with a brilliant Arthurian adventure spanning the early days of Camelot, all the while also managing to educate as much as it entertains…”

“Filled with some memorable and engaging characters, great sect-pieces, and a chilling atmosphere bolstered by the use of static-y snatches of radio broadcasts that help flesh out the world-building that Romero started in his film, They’re Coming To Get You, Barbara! is one of the best pieces of indie zombie fiction I’ve read in quite some time…”

“The Fractured Void is the epitome of what a Space Opera should truly be – detailed, complex and full of rich and engaging characters, while simultaneously allied to a galaxy-spanning plot that moves along at a fast pace with no extraneous detail or pointless side-plots, and written with a genuine sense of tension and a healthy dose of wry humour…”

“Poison River is the second book I’ve reviewed from Aconyte Books set in the Legend of the Five Rings game universe, and if anything it’s even better than David Annandale’s fantastic Curse of Honor; while it isn’t set on the shadowy, ragged edges of humanity’s empire, in an area infested with demons, it still occurs in an environment that’s just as dangerous and deadly. Reynolds is the perfect writer for the world of Rokugan, creating an instantly compelling and multi-faceted protagonist to effortlessly draw us into a fast-paced and complex political thriller that entertains with every page…”

“The Hungry Dead of Yü-Ching and Other Stories demonstrates that Leone is a hugely talented author able to deliver innovative, engaging and action-packed tales across multiple genres…”

“Superbly written, deftly plotted, and imbued with Sidor’s absolutely phenomenal imagination and inherent understanding of the decaying, sumptuous décor of Jazz Age Arkham that hides a terrifying underside, The Last Ritual is one of the most enjoyable and memorable occult horror thrillers that I have read in a long time, and a fantastic addition to Aconyte’s Arkham Horror range…”

“With the publication of Contact! A Military Horror Anthology, publisher Screaming Banshee Press have readily demonstrated that they are a fresh new voice in the Horror genre, and not simply a one-hit wonder like many publishers that come and go. Editor Chris McInally has expertly curated a concise collection of fresh, engaging and blood-soaked stories that act as a vital contribution to the slowly-expanding Military Horror subgenre, all of which contributed something unique and memorable in their own way.”

“Cathedral is proof that Dave Jeffery is the undisputed modern master of the post-apocalyptic horror genre, and is essential reading for anyone interested in the genre, both as readers and writers. Demain Publishing have made a hugely valuable contribution to the horror genre as a whole in publishing Jeffery’s classics, and I eagerly look forward to seeing what the third book in the trilogy looks like whenever it is published…”

“Sole Survivor II: Drop Bears on the Loose is a blood-soaked masterpiece of the creature feature genre, a fast-paced, highly imaginative and often surprisingly thoughtful novella that grabs you and never lets you go until it has dragged you through a chaotic melee of guns, guts and killer koala bears…”

“Masterfully written, carefully crafted to evoke a tense and unsettling atmosphere, and populated with an engaging and memorable protagonist that is simultaneously sympathetic and also deeply repulsive as a character, The First Rule of Showmanship is a brilliant piece of horror short fiction by DS Ullery that deserves to be read by any fan of horror fiction, especially for those interested in psychological and weird horror…”

“Tense, horrifying, action-packed and populated with a fresh and engaging cast of characters, as well as a unique take on the undead that continues to evolve and deeply impress me as a reader and reviewer, Snipers is one of the best zombie apocalypse novels that I have read in a long time – and I have read a lot of them.”
