The Lost Puzzler by Eyal Kless – Cover Reveal
There aren’t a huge amount of fantasy/science fiction hybrids and probably for good reason; it’s a very hard balance to strike. If the reader feels for even a moment that the fantasy elements are there for the sake of being there (i.e. the science fiction elements should have resulted in the civilisation moving on – […]

Voyager Takeover: Announcing Witchsign
The takeover continues, although there’s a vent that we at Fantasy-Faction considered escaping from.

You’re about to hear about […]

Cover Reveal for A Veil Of Spears
I can still remember the first time I heard of Bradley Beaulieu. It was 2011 when he was in the running for the Gemmell Morningstar Award with The Winds of Khalakovo. That was a great book and anyone who read it knew that Bradley would go far should he stick with Fantasy. However, Khalakovo was a […]
