I was never certain what was going to happen next in this haunted house story. A tale of family, suspense, and pain, with a few genuinely creepy moments. Panatier does an excellent job of getting into the psyche of the characters. I was rooting for them all. A new fave 📚💙 @scribeofhades.bsky.social

Review: A Forsaken Prophecy by Stacey McEwan

A review of the funny and brilliantly put together Perilous Times that asks us what we'd do if King Arthur came back and was, essentially Nigel Farage in a surcoat and mail. #booksky #reviews #fantasy #SFF
Review: Perilous Times
Thomas D Lee's Perilous Times asks what if the knights of the round table actually came back when the island was in peril and what if, because Merlin was loose with his bargaining, the definition of peril has a pretty low threshold? What if the people in power kinda knew they could rely on these ancient knights who could die and die again were on call?

The Dead Don't Lie, second book in the Blackstone Files, by Stephen Aryan, is a worthy sucessor to New York Minute, a well-plotted noir fantasy that gets the more from the setting and embracing the weirdness of it. Full thoughts: jamreads.com/reviews/the-... 💙📚
