Wereworld: Rise of the Wolf by Curtis Jobling cover

Wereworld: Rise of the Wolf

…effective, and this werelords concept is quite intriguing, although a bit underplayed I felt. If you can ignore the somewhat bland and cliched characterisation, and enjoy high fantasy novels on par with Eragon, then Wereworld: Rise of the Wolf is a definite must. Overall, as a first novel (and particularly as an epic fantasy novel – one of the hardest genres to write well in, in my humble opinion), Wereworld is a solid debut by the experienced ch… Continue reading

Department 19 by Will Hill cover

Department 19

…t Department 19 for the cinema (I’m not sure they’d get away with a rating under 15, at least!), as a novel Will Hill’s shocking, hold-nothing-back style will enthral anyone who wants to experience the real thing: untamed and unpatronising. Don’t say I didn’t warn you… Reading Department 19 had me torn. It’s had some incredible reviews and praise has been flung with rigour It has been wrapped in a huge marketing campaign, and something about me wa… Continue reading

The Case of the Deadly Desperados by Caroline Lawrence cover

The Case of the Deadly Desperados

…autism/Aspergers Syndrome, and he finds it extremely difficult to read and understand peoples’ emotions. This “thorn” means he is at an immediate disadvantage, but his strengths make up for that; P.K. can remember copious amounts of facts, and give him any two numbers and he can add, multiply, divide or subtract them in seconds- regardless of size. While The Case of the Deadly Desperados does not concentrate on the characters surrounding P.K. much… Continue reading

Pusing the Limits by Katie McGarry cover

Pushing the Limits

…disbelief a little harder than should have been necessary. Not large inconsistencies: just small details such as Echo’s assumption that Noah doesn’t fancy her even though he’s practically got his lips in her hair (another problem I had: they seemed extremely intimate for two characters who weren’t in a relationship or close to one) and character interactions that just didn’t quite make sense. “Normality” is one of the key themes of Pushing the Lim… Continue reading

172 Hours on the Moon by Johan Harstad

172 Hours on the Moon

…to push the horror/spooky side of things. And whilst the climax is short (under fifty pages), it is terrifying and left me in a state of unrest for several hours. Not many books can do that. From there on in, things just fall apart. Harstad kills of too many characters too quickly, and it doesn’t help that I was never fully invested in them anyway. 172 Hours on the Moon transitions very quickly from a remotely possible, creepy sci-fi novel to a p… Continue reading

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs cover

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

…rror/mystery novel and becoming so much more. It is not often that a novel comes around where it is hard to pick away at it and formulate a review, but Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children is one of the few where each component of the novel works together to effortlessly create a truly spell-binding read. Told from the perspective of a young American teen Jacob, the story soon takes the backdrop of a dull Welsh island, as well as a heaven-l… Continue reading

Crusher by Niall Leonard cover

Crusher

…fatherless, Finn’s reaction and response to his new (and unwanted) independence is both realistic and believable as he bumbles through an amateur investigation trying to find out who could have had it in for his dad. Secondary characters are a little less convincing, with ex-social-worker Elsa Kendrick and his mother slightly more cliched and contrived characters given little time to develop their motives. Crusher’s romantic interest is a little… Continue reading

Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler cover

Why We Broke Up

…times the simplest ideas are the best ideas: not overcomplicated or buried under a mountain of concepts and high-brow theory. Sometimes, stripping back life to its essential qualities; distilling it to love, and friendship, and heartbreak and coffee; sometimes that makes for a better book than one filled with a tenuous plot. No sensationalism, just pure, untainted life. Something we can all relate to. No larger-than-life characters like in John Gr… Continue reading
