Not Flesh Nor Feathers is the third Eden Moore story from Cherie Priest. We’ve interviewed Priest before for her vampire Cheshire Red series and it does feel like she is an author in touch with her fans. Eden Moore is a medium who seems torn between wanting to lead a normal as life as possible […]
Review of Under the Dragon’s Tail
Under the Dragon’s Tail, by Maureen Jennings, is a Murdoch Mysteries novel and historical whodunit of around 300 pages. The first Murdoch Mysteries novel I reviewed was “Except the Dying”, and you can find it, if you wanted, a couple pages back on Geek Native. Suffice to say I enjoyed it, and was looking forward […]
Dead Roots review
Dead Roots is a zombie comic anthology, with a first edition just out, and a quarterly publishing schedule via Apple’s NewStand app. There’s a Kindle version in development. The premise is simple but effective; Dead Roots follows the initial outbreak of a zombie plague. As an anthology is follows different people in multiple short stories, […]
Star Wars: The Essential Reader’s Companion review
This week Disney has secured the rights to Star Wars (and the rest of the Lucasfilm empire) and announced plans for Star Wars 7, 8 and 9. Already fans are asking which novel will Star Wars 7 be while tipsters whisper it’ll be an all new story. You might suddenly wish for a handy crash […]
Murdoch Mysteries: Except the Dying review
Times are hard, work is hard to come by, its cold outside and there are concerns over immigration. Actually I am not describing Scotland in the present, but rather Toronto 1895, and the setting for a Murdoch Mysteries novel, Except the Dying, by Maureen Jennings, a historical whodunit of around 300 pages. The front cover […]
Supernatural: Rite of Passage review
The Supernatural novel series continues to be a pleasant surprise. Rite of Passage, by John Passarella, published by Titan Books, is an engaging read and a well written book. Rite of Passage is set in Season 7 of the TV series. In fact, it’s set between “Time for a Wedding” and “How to Win Friends […]
Review of Quarry’s Ex
With the 50th anniversary of the James Bond franchise under way there’s a good chance you might be looking for some similar cloak-and-daggers fiction. If that is the case you could consider picking up for yourself a copy of Quarry’s Ex. The protagonist of Quarry’s Ex, however, is not a government secret agent but rather […]
Transformers: Exiles review
The Transformers! More than meets the eye! Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons! The Transformers! Robots in disguise! The Transformers! More than meets the eye! The Transformers! I have to admit that song alone brings back some fond memories from my past, and will probably take a day or […]
Wolf Children review
Wolf Children is an anime by Mamoru Hosoda who is responsible for Summer Wars and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. I watched Summer Wars at the Scotland Loves Anime film festival of 2011 and really enjoyed it – I went into Wolf Children with my expectations high. This is always dangerous. Wolf Children is […]
Blood-C: The Last Dark review
Technically Blood-C: The Last Dark is a sequel but the creative team re-jigs things slightly and the film stands on its own two feet. I didn’t notice or mind that I hadn’t seen any of the previous anime. Action kicks off in a train. A vampire looses control and goes on a face eating rampage. […]
