Limited Bonanza!

Two great headlines are haunting the fantasy-sphere at the moment. Both of them regard the publication of books in two great fantasy series, both of which may very well be considered to be among my top three favorites.
We all knew that Subterranean Press were going to make a limited edition of Red Seas under Red [...]

Good Gods I’m Rich!

Okay, so I was browsing the web for prices on various books since I’m seriously contemplating going on a small shopping spree in the future, and guess what I found! I checked John Scalzi’s page on Amazon and discovered to my amazement that my signed, limited edition of “You’re not Fooling Anyone When You Take [...]

The Lees of Laughter’s End, by Steven Erikson

I finished my copy of Lees yesterday afternoon, which was a most spectacular afternoon in every way. Not only was the sky as blue as you could only dream of and the temperature was near to perfect, but as three little doggies played beneath me I had the chance to finish the last Malazan book [...]

Steven Erikson Demonic Dialog of the Day

A rasping cackle from the darkness - somewhere far down towards the stern. Korbal Broach frowned. “Rude,” he murmured, “to have so interrupted my precious thoughts. So rude.” The cackle crumbled into a rasp, and a voice drifted out. “You”

The Mystery Poll (Now even more mysterious then before!)

I don’t how and I don’t know why, but somewhere along the recent changes on this blog my latest poll question got deactivated and deleted.

This disturbing craving of yours is about to be fulfilled, because I’ve just watched a movie which operates [...]

Hear Yee, Hear Yee

Scott Lynch announced some time ago that he would be publishing three short novellas set in the Locke Lamora World. Since this joyous occasion, naught but the sound of silence has surrounded these mysterious scriptures. I’m happy to tell you that I have been able to lay my hands on some more tangible news regarding [...]

Pictures and Pestering

If you’re wondering whether or not the header of this blog was slightly different last time you popped by, the answer to your query is yes. It might in fact have changed several times since the last time you popped by, because it took a lot of effort before I finally settled on this Edward [...]

An End to Torture; Let the Procrastination Commence!

I handed in this semester’s very last mock exam two hours past midday today. A chilling notion ran through my head as my back straightened from a day of crunching numbers. I’m free! Well, nearly free. I have to visit school on a daily basis until the 21th of June, and I may have a [...]
