Kuro review

December 2, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

It’s rare for me to be as excited about a RPG when it is initially announced as I was about Kuro. The promise of Japanese style horror blended darkly into a cyberpunk aesthetic was a strong one. From the outset, Kuro had an expectations battle for this review – I was expecting a lot from […]

Supercrooks hardcover review

November 28, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Supercrooks is a four part comic series from Mark Millar. There’s already a movie on the way. In the hardcover edition all four are put together in a single book and it’s a fantastic way to dive into the clever story. As the name suggests – Supercrooks follows a band of super powered villains. They’re […]

Not Flesh Nor Feathers review

November 10, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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

November 8, 2012 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

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 […]

Star Wars: The Essential Reader’s Companion review

October 31, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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

October 28, 2012 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

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

October 27, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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

October 26, 2012 by James Leave a Comment

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 […]

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 […]
