Larry Killian reviews SIM by Andy Remic, a fast paced science fiction eBook set in the future, published by Anarchy Books.

Reading SIM is like reading Robocop meets Ash from Evil Dead. ~The Founding Fields 

Blood Rites by Jim Butcher – Book Review [Bane of Kings]

bloodrites

Bane of Kings reviews the sixth Dresden Files novel, Blood Rites, by Jim Butcher, published by Orbit Books in the UK, an imprint of Little Brown Publishers.

“Typical Dresden, Butcher does it again with style. Action packed, fast paced, as well as expanding on the background of the Dresden Files series.” ~The Founding Fields

Warning! Because we are this far into the series, I strongly recommend that you read all of the previous Dresden Files novels before reading Blood Rites. It makes sense really, as this is one of those series where you won’t understand what’s going on unless you read the previous books.  

Throne of Lies by Aaron Dembski-Bowden – Audio Drama Review [Shadowhawk]

Throne-of-Lies

Shadowhawk reviews the second installment in the Night Lords series, an audio drama, that continues the tale of Talos and his brethren of First Claw.

“An audio drama that is just on the cusp of potential that delivers its goods in a rather roundabout way.” ~ The Founding Fields

EmpireStateUS-144dpi1

Shadowhawk reviews Angry Robot Books’ most recent release, the debut noir/science-fiction novel by Adam Christopher.

“If Empire State could play poker, you would be out of your money by the end of the night. You cannot out-bluff this one!” ~ The Founding Fields

Labyrinth of Sorrows by George Mann – Advanced Review [djinn24]

labyrinth-of-sorrows

The Brazen Minotaurs are trying to recapture something precious to them in the bowels of a planet infested by Nurgle.  Deeper they go it becomes apparent that they either have an unknown friend helping them or someone else is after the same thing that they are!

George Mann does a great job of adopting his writing style for this audio drama put out by Black Library to put you into the action as you are listening to it ~ The Founding Fields
