Review – Mundus Cerialis (Space: 1889 & Beyond)

The second series of Space: 1889 & Beyond continues with instalment two, Mundus Cerialis, and I have to say, it is disappointingly short. It was really good I had a lot of other things to do...

Review: Vintage Tomorrows

Review: The Good, The Bad and The Infernal by Guy Adams

When I first heard Guy Adams had published a weird west-steampunk-horror novel, the first of a trilogy no less, I simply had to get my hands on it. After reading The World House and Restoration, I...

Review: Steel Dominance by Cari Silverwood
