Please find my FanFiAddict book review for The Skyship of Truskal by @dmbarnham.bsky.social below, a cosy fantasy lit by a young girl’s determination to fly to the icewall and beyond. fanfiaddict.com/review-the-s... #cozyfantasy #fantasybooks #bookreview Review snippet: Such wonders she meets
NEW REVIEW: I had trouble capturing how much I loved this book in this review. Sarah Langan’s Trad Wife is a masterclass in slow burn horror that gently gnaws its way under the skin. www.fantasybooknerd.com/2026/06/book...
BOOK REVIEW | TRAD WIFE | SARAH LANGAN

Deadbeat by Maxim Volk killed me. Literally, opens with your death, then a naked cult resurrects you with an appetite for human flesh. Queer zombie horror gamebook, multiple branching paths, real splatter, excellent deadpan humour. A debut that earns its confidence.
Deadbeat By Maxim Volk, A Choose Your Own Queer Adventure Horror At Its Nastiest - The Ginger Nuts Of Horror: Horror Book Reviews & Horror Movie Reviews
Deadbeat by Maxim Volk (Slashic Horror Press, 2026) is a queer zombie horror gamebook that’s funny, nasty, and completely impossible to put down.
