  • Sky Full of Stars

    Sky Full of Stars

    Getting reviews for books is even harder than actually selling books. A fraction of the people who read a book will review it, so when I got out of the shower the other week to a surprise email telling me I’d won a bundle of five reviews from Readers’ Favorite…

  • Dragon Age: Inquisition

    Dragon Age: Inquisition

    I never expected Inquisition (see what I did?!) to be brilliant. I didn’t expect it to be BioWare back to form. And it wasn’t. But it was pretty good, and in some places very good; it was certainly a big improvement over Dragon Age II.

  • Reviews and Amazon Rants

    It means a lot to get good reviews. It means quite a lot to get a good rating, though slightly less than a well thought out review. It also means a lot when Amazon decides ‘f*** you, we don’t like you having nice things, so we’ll delete your best reviews’.…

  • Dawn of the Jedi

    Yes, I know the blog posts – when they actually come – are mostly about games and graphic novels at the moment, but it’s not going to become a habit. Probably. I’ve said before that I don’t really read graphic novels, and while this is still mostly true, there have…

  • The Last Of Us

    I got The Last of Us on the day of release and I’ve been playing it since. I finished it and started again. I’m still not quite sure what to think of it. What I am sure of is that it certainly doesn’t deserve the 10/10s it’s been getting. I’ll…

  • It…Ends!

    Like the end of the world, come December. But with less violence, looting and I told you so’s. The final stop on the tour is Tea and Text. I admit, I was a little concerned about today’s review, as it was the only one that I hadn’t seen ahead of…

  • It…Continues!

    Today is day three of the mini-tour, and I’m at Sammy HK Smith’s blog for another interview and a review from guest blogger, David Muir. He gives Shadow of the Wraith 9 stars out of 10! Tomorrow, I’ll be at Zigzag Timeline for another interview. M’s review of the book…

  • It…Begins!

    A bit like Batman did, but with less violence and skin-tight rubber. The first day of my blog mini-tour is here, and it has started with a 5 star review and interview on Dragon’s Lair Books. It continues tomorrow with another review and interview on Bookishly Devoted. Don’t forget, Shadow…

  • Book Tour!

    Well, blog mini-tour. From Friday, 1 June to Tuesday, 5 June, I will be doing a book tour! Or more accurately, I will be sat here doing pretty much nothing while the blogs do the work of posting reviews and interviews with me. I will be sitting all day with…

  • My First Review!

    On Authonomy, I have a sci fi critique group. In that group is a girl. There are several, actually, but this one in particular wanted to start up a book reviewing blog. She wanted to kick things off with my book. Last night, I got the simple message, ‘I reviewed…
