Shadowhawk reviews Chuck Wendig’s soon-to-be-released new urban fantasy novel from Angry Robot.
“Gritty, visceral, emotional, and damn good fun. These are the words I’d use to describe the novel. Its not a book for the faint-hearted!” ~The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk reviews the first novel in the bestselling Mistborn series.
“One of the most fascinating and deeply character-driven novels I’ve read to date, with a fantastically detailed magic system and a wonderful setting.” ~The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the second comics round-up for May.
“The only disappointment this time around was Matt Fraction’s first arc for The Mighty Thor. Batman: Knightfall Volume 1 was simply amazing in terms of its deep-seated psychological impact while Fables Volume 2 was the perfect successor to the first volume, and G.I.Joe: Cobra Volume 2 continued to impress with its character exploration of Chuckles.” ~Shadowhawk
“Action Comics #19 sees Andy Diggle’s short run go out with a bang, Jeff Lemire establishes Green Arrow as one of the best of the New 52, while Jeph Leob delivers another strong issue of Nova and All New X-Men remains one of the best currently ongoing Marvel Now! comics.” ~Bane of Kings
Shadowhawk reviews the first book in the Shiva Trilogy by Amish Tripathi’s, one of India’s most recent literary successes.
“A daring retelling of one of Hinduism’s greatest mythologies, The Immortals of Meluha is a welcome entry on the world SFF scene, and in that context, firmly establishes the relevance of Indian fantasy fiction. If you are looking for an Indian-themed epic fantasy of a mythological bent, this is the book you need to be reading.” ~The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk reviews the first book of the Dragonlance Chronicles trilogy.
“One of the classics of tie-in fantasy fiction, this book is still as enjoyable today as it was when I first read it more than a decade ago.” ~The Founding Fields
IDW finally provides details on how Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez’ smash-shit series Locke & Key will be concluded later this year.

Shadowhawk reviews the second and third books of the Shotguns & Sorcery trilogy from Matt Forbeck’s 12-for-12 project.
“This is when my inner fanboy comes out all giddy with excitement, because my favourite author has written two more kick-ass awesome novels.. This must be how Brandon Sanderson die-hard fans must feel.” ~The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk reviews the first volume of the runaway urban horror hit series from IDW Publishing.
“I never realised that I could love a horror comic so much, or that I would be so damn creeped out by it. This is fantastic stuff.” ~The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk reviews the first volume of the rebooted Archer and Armstrong series from Valiant Comics.
“A surprise hit full of uniqueness and modern-day relevance to religious politics, this is an absolute must read because of its mythic storyline reminiscent of an Indiana Jones movie and a duo of awesome, misfit characters.” ~The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk reviews the first book of the Spiritwalker trilogy.
“An intense novel with some likable characters, but often very slow, Cold Magic has something for everybody and is also a great example of some superb world-building.” ~The Founding Fields
