Review: Cine

Cine Cine by Stuart Keane
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

That was a cracking read. Keane has a talent for thinking up some pretty unique things.
The story itself is solid, it's a good story.
But let's be honest. What did you come here for? The violence, the blood and gore.
This book is full of it. It's brutal! i've read and seen some pretty extreme horror.
If this book was to go to screen then half of it would have to be censored out.
If you think you can handle it, give it a try. You'll love it.

Review: Ravenous: Car Nex Collection Book One

Ravenous: Car Nex Collection Book One Ravenous: Car Nex Collection Book One by Terry M. West
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a great collection of stories. It's about time that someone came up with something original. Car Nex is a completely new monster, it's brutal and violent. It's great!

All of the stories are completely unique, some have a bit of comedy, some give you quite a bit to think about, but overall this is a great collection and finally some originality hitting the scene. Well worth checking out

Review: Brutality

Brutality Brutality by Ian Woodhead
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this story a lot. With a name like "Brutality" I was expecting the normal mindless violence (which is good, I like that) but this story was far more in depth. brutality is the name of the town and its residents are different from other people. Each one has its own dark streak.
This leads on to a very in depth and dark story. The only reason I gave this four stars and not five is because I felt like it could have gone further. Ian Woodhead has created a very unique universe with this story and I think the potential is massive.
I really hope that there is going to be more.

Review: Whispers - Volume 1: A Collection

Whispers - Volume 1: A Collection Whispers - Volume 1: A Collection by Stuart Keane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a great collection. It's very hard to find a book of short stories in which every single one is a good, solid story. I really enjoyed all of these. They say that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. With this one you most certainly should! Such a fantastic cover, just look at it. Well the content is equally as good.

Review: Waiting For The Bee Stings

Waiting For The Bee Stings Waiting For The Bee Stings by Calvin Wade
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another cracking read from Wade.
I keep saying that these are not usually the sort of books I read, but after enjoying another one so much I think Wade is starting to make me change my mind.
This is the third book I've read from him, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. It made a great holiday read. Now I look forward to the next one.
