A Review - Cold Iron - Miles Cameron


I loved this book.

It's everything I want from a coming of age epic fantasy story, and Cameron proves a world can be build without a book being 800 pages.

This was an exciting read that was comfortably familiar without feeling like a rehash of another authors work.

If you like authors like John Gwynne and Ryan Cahill then you'll like this.

A Review - Fury of the Gods - John Gwynne

Firstly I would like to thank John Gwynne, The Little Brown Book Group and NetGalley for allowing me access to this book so far in advance. I will start by stating my biases. I am an enormous John Gwynne fan, he’s my favourite author of all time and the reason I read and collect books today. That said I do not feel this affects my review of this book in any way. For context, it’s currently 01:45am, I have been reading this book for the past 5 hours and haven’t taken a break between finishing it and writing this review to process anything.

Shine, Head of Zeus and NetGalley for the incoherent mess that is about to unfold. I loved this book, I loved it like I loved The Watchers. I’ll admit I was apprehensive going into this as so often horror books lose their scary edge once that initial climax has been reached and faded again in the first book. There’s no denying that the book does have a slow start but that isn’t without reason as we start to unpack just how the events of book one have impacted the lives of Mina and Ciara. If you find the start a bit slow for your tastes I would implore you to persevere, it’s around the 25% mark that things start to ramp up, and boy do they ramp up. A.M. Shine has developed the perfect concoction of horror for me, it has all the insurmountable terror of superhuman killing machines, the horro...
