By: John GwynneReviewed by: Andy Peloquin I FINALLY finished Malice by John Gwynne (a beast of a book!) and wow, what an epic world!

By: Virginia McClainReviewed by: Andy Peloquin For those who like the world of Rob J.

The Blacktongue Thief
By: Christopher BuehlmanReviewed by: Andy Peloquin4.5 out of 5 Stars Hands-down one of the best, most “lived-in” worlds I’ve read, with a decent plot and awesome characters. I’ve been hearing nothing but praise for Blacktongue Thief–including from Nick Eames himself–so I figured it was about time I gave it a listen and experienced it for […]
