Author of dark things – thrilling novels and haunting stories
The most incredible science fiction book I've ever read. Hyperion is one of those books that I feel like I've heard of my whole life, but never really known anything about. If you've followed this blog for a while, you've probably seen me say that before. It's the same with Dan Simmons. If I heard... Continue Reading →

Perhaps the best story ever written! It started at some point in the mid-2000s, when a friend of mine first introduced me to anime.

Stop This Game is an honest, heartfelt and brutal book about living with bipolar disorder. Jaka Tomc is a Solvenian author and poet. I first heard about him on Twitter, years ago, and I've read a few of his books before. What I never knew was that he has struggled with bipolar disorder for nearly... Continue Reading →
The most successful kickstarter ever delivers again! I mostly knew Sanderson by rumor when I pledged to his insanely successful kickstarter. I had read the first Skyward book and was working on the first in the Mistborn series, and figured getting four mysterious ebooks over the course of a year sounded like a very fun...
