01/08/2026 Guest Review from Craig Brownlie!
It’s Been A Year, Part 3 Reviews and thoughts on writing with Craig Brownlie I have been reading and writing, but it’s been a minute since I’ve completed any reviews because 2025 has been a worse year than even 2024, which is saying quite a bit on a personal level. Bringers of Hell by Patrick C. Harrison III, Eric Butler, M Ennenbach, Chris Miller Disasterpieces by Wesley Southard, Wile E Young Talk about a dystopian roundup! Honestly, I did not read these books back-to-b

It’s Been A Year, Part 2 Reviews and thoughts on writing with Craig Brownlie Running to catch up because it’s been a minute since I’ve done any reviews since 2025 has been a worse year than even 2024, which is saying something on a personal level. But I have kept reading and writing! Wonder of wonders! Pimp My Airship by Maurice Broaddus Loyalty of Severus by Len Berry Science fiction is the literature of ideas. And that there is the paralyzing phrase. I could jab a fountain

12/18/2025 Random Reviews: Oldies but Goodies from Sally Feliz!
During the Review Team Holiday Break, we like to reshare some older reviews for some great reads that you may have missed! Keep in mind we also welcome guest reviews from our indie author friends and reviewers! DREAMWHISPERS By m ennenbach Dreamwhispers is an important book for me, as it is the first signed copy I bought from Mike Ennenbach a few years ago. Many have followed, and I've read them in a completely baffling order, but this was my first so it's special. As always,

During the Review Team Holiday Break, we like to reshare some older reviews for some great reads that you may have missed! Keep in mind we also welcome guest reviews from our indie author friends and reviewers! The Upside-Down Voice That Speaks Backwards By R.J. Benetti R.J. Benetti is sneaky. I've read him before, his stories are always fun, bizarre, and quirky. I suspected this collection would be incredibly enjoyable, strange, and more sci-fi than horror. While I was techn

12/11/2025 Guest Review: My Evil F*cking Neighbor
Today we have a guest review from friend and super fan, Sally Feliz! My Evil Fucking Neighbor: Edited by R.E. Sargent and Steven Pajak This is one of the best anthologies I've read in a while. Every story, without exception, is well written and entertaining. Incredible tales, not to mention an equally entertaining foreword from Duncan Ralston, all about horrendous neighbors of all kinds. Tons of sub-genres are represented, slasher, serial killer, cosmic, folk, grief, even er

11/20/2025 Guest Review: THE RATS by James Herbert. Reviewed by Sue Rovens
Today's review will take you back the glory days of horror, when mass paperback racks were full of creepy dolls, scary kids, horrible rodents, and gaunt faced pale men in black. Those covers were incredible and to this day, those books are still among my favorites of all time. If you are a new to horror fan, or have not yet tried vintage horror, I strongly encourage you to go browse eBay or Thrift Books for some of the best vintage books out there. Most are campy, gory, wild,

10-31-25 — Warn’s Wrap-Up
Happy Halloween, everyone! This Halloween, I'm bringing you a story that has my favorite horror trope, the crazy family. I believe my fascination with this trope began when I first saw The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and just grew from there. So now whenever I see a story with a crazy family, it's an instant buy. With that being said, I bring you today's review……. Rest Stop 2: Road to Hell By: Eric Butler Momma and the clan are back and still raising hell. A mother trying to find
