Shadowhawk takes a look at the two covers from Orbit for Murr Lafferty’s Shambling Guides series.
“The first cover is very Fables-esque in its atmosphere and feel, which is great for me since I happen to love Fables. And the second cover gives off a great fairy-tale fantasy feel, very light-hearted in tone and cheekily mysterious.” ~Shadowhawk
Shadowhawk reviews two of Strange Chemistry’s latest young adult fantasy titles.
On Emilie & The Hollow World: “This is an action-adventure novel that is very reminiscent of Jules Verne’s classic, A Journey To The Center of The Earth. Hence, my conclusion is that the novel is a work of genius.“
On The Holders: “An Irish fantasy that reads like an X-men novelisation. Which means of course that this was pretty damn good, no mistake.”
Shadowhawk and The Founding Fields present the first book giveaway of the year, courtesy of the great folk at Angry Robot Books.

Shadowhawk takes a look at another Orbit cover, this time for Amanda Carlson’s third book in the Jessica McClain urban fantasy series.

Shadowhawk reviews two of Angry Robot’s recent releases, one the sequel to a (late) 2012 sterling debut, and the other a brand new novel from an author who has mostly written short fiction to date.
On She Returns From War: “I thought it would be tough for Lee Collins to build on the success of his debut, but with this book he has proved me wrong.“
On Between Two Thorns: “Two words I would use to describe the book – charming and fairy tale. This is a fantastic urban fantasy novel, carrying on the publisher’s trend in putting out some great genre fiction.”
Thanks to the kind folks at Angry Robot Books, Shadowhawk and The Founding Fields once more present to you an exclusive cover reveal. Huge thanks to our own Larry “djinn24″ Killian for negotiating the opportunity with Darren Turpin at Angry Robot.
“The best I can say about this cover is that artist Joey Hi-Fi has struck gold once again and delivered on another awesome cover for Angry Robot and for Chuck. Crazy awesome talent.” ~Shadowhawk
IDW has recently announced that they are going to be publishing a new micro-series for their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles license.

“Another month of some great comics from Marvel and DC.” ~Bane of Kings
