Michael Grant Messenger of Fear cover

MESSENGER OF FEAR (Michael Grant) COVER REVEAL

…s in our individual lives. For me the meaning of my life is to be a good husband to my wife, a good father to my children, to do my job as well as I am able, to make a contribution however small to the cause of human civilization, and to go to bed each night understanding something I didn’t understand that morning. And below, a rather entertaining video of Michael with what looks like a real copy of the book (I want it!). https://www.youtube.com/w… Continue reading

Time Out of Time by Alex Woolf cover

Chronosphere: Time Out of Time

…proximately half a second to disprove or those in which it takes longer to understand than reading the actual novel does. Time Out of Time falls into the latter category. When it came to Woolf’s ideas of time-bending, I was completely stumped and just had to trust him! Which means that Alex Woolf is a good author if he can completely befuddle me in one of his novels, so much so that I must simply accept that what he says is plausible! (Well, kind… Continue reading

The Beating of His Wings by Paul Hoffman cover

The Beating of His Wings

…at first revulsion (just read my review of The Left Hand of God), and then understanding (see my review of The Last Four Things!) has now become not just appreciation but out and out enjoyment of this epic trilogy. Again, Hoffman’s omniscient narrative voice is superbly laconic in The Beating of His Wings, his authorial commentary dripping with sarcasm and simply marvellous to read. What got me, though, is that Hoffman chooses to end the trilogy i… Continue reading

Duty Calls: Dunkirk by James Holland cover

Duty Calls: Dunkirk

…with Duty Calls. It isn’t that the prose is clunky, overly-descriptive (or under, for that matter). It’s just written in a way which I found really hard to process into a visual scene, as it were. This style really puts me off; it was a slog to read Duty Calls at first. However, as the novel progressed and the situations the soldiers were facing were getting tense and exciting, I managed to put aside those short comings and really came to enjoy th… Continue reading

An Act of Love by Alan Gibbons cover

An Act of Love

…brothers, one of whom is radicalised into the Islamic faith, for my rough understanding of basic principles such as Jihad. Alan Gibbons successfully manages to find the human story behind the actions of the characters, and tells it in the most engaging way. An Act of Love does not have a plot, it has a series of events that affect the characters. This wonderful novel is the perfect example of the writer’s law “show, don’t tell”. But more than any… Continue reading

Skulduggery Pleasant: Death Bringer by Derek Landy cover

Skulduggery Pleasant: Death Bringer

…, then Death Bringer is beyond excellent; it’s a masterpiece perhaps, of modern middle-grade-come-young-adult writing. And one that you can’t put down. Landy has succeeded in creating an incredible growth in the characters. Valkyrie is now a egoistic and sassy sixteen year old. Like all good characters we’re not sure whether we love her or hate her imperfections, which can raise her from a low-life murderer to a hero within pages. Her relationship… Continue reading
