I got sick, then slack, then sick again, but I am finally about to record some more videos. I've managed to script a bunch of reviews during my time off, videos incoming for:
Left Hand of Darkness
Blood Cell
Valuable Humans in Transit
Silver Nitrate
A Tide of Black Steel
Maybe Grimm's War

Cover Reveal for The Crypt 2: Voidstrike by Scott Sigler. It's not up for preorder yet but this cover by artist Filip Dudek is outrageous. The second It's available I'm preordering one. #scifi #scifibooks #booksky @scottsigler.bsky.social

I adored The Hand of God by @yuvalkordov.bsky.social
A masterclass in world building and atmosphere, with the exact religious, gloomy, grim aesthetic that ticks all my boxes
Highly recommend the book! If you want some more detailed thoughts check out my video review below.

Real reading slump right now. 4 dnfs in quick succession, and the two books I'm currently reading (audio & physical) are both coming it as "...fine..." So far.
Looking forward to a couple I have on deck though.

Gosh it's so easy to spend money on books. Everywhere I look are new books I want to read, and it's so easy to just, add to cart, checkout.
I need to get healthier shopping habits.

Probably comes in as my least favourite of the series so far, but by the end everything came together and I was loving it once again.
I suspect a lot of the things I would complain about here are necessary evils to be able to set up the rest of the story.
Will have to pick up Dark Age soon!
