This is a blog with spoiler free reviews. Most will be Fantasy, Science Fiction, and Horror, but there will be some books in other genres, including the occasional Non-Fiction review. There is an ongoing series of Cover Reveal Round-Ups, and sometimes I'll write an article on something that interests me.

GIVEAWAY WINNER.

   The giveaway is over. I took the entries and assigned them each a number, and then put it through a random number generator. The winner is:

MIHAI

   I have been in contact with him on e-mail, and the book will be on its way to him this week.


   I've been a bit quiet lately. The reason is that I haven't had much time lately. And what I have had has been flying past. I'll have some reviews up starting tomorrow. For those that have been waiting for reviews; I am sorry for the delay. They will be coming up shortly.

A QUICK REMINDER: GIVEAWAY

   Since I haven't gotten many entries, I thought it would be a good time to remind everyone that I have a giveaway going. You can read all about it here. It will be going until midnight 14 April. I'm afraid it is open for Europe only, but if you live in Europe, please enter!

   I've been a bit quiet on the blog the last two weeks, but will have more stuff up from Tuesday. Upcoming reviews include: Mr Mercedes by Stephen King, The Cyberiad by Stanislaw Lem, and Best British Horror 2014 edited by Johnny Mains.

   Have a good weekend everyone!

GIVEAWAY: AMOK: ASIA-PACIFIC SPECULATIVE FICTION


   Time for the first giveaway on this blog. The reason I'm having this giveaway is pretty simple, my girlfriend is one of the authors in the anthology. So, I have one copy of the book available for a giveaway. Because of postage costs it's restricted to the EU and EFTA (EEA + Switzerland).  The way to enter is pretty simple, just send me an e-mail at the address on the top of the right-hand sidebar of this page, with the subject "Amok Giveaway"*.
   The giveaway is open until 23.59.59 BST (British Summer Time) 14 June. After that I will use a random number selector to choose a winner. Only one entry per person. (You can however enter the giveaway over on Jo's blog if you want to double your chance of winning.

   Since you may be a bit curious as to what you have a chance of winning if you enter, here is the cover and full cover copy of the anthology:

Image
In an anthology that spans from India in the west to Hawai‘i in the east, and as far south as Australia and New Zealand, 24 authors bring you an exciting range of tales set in the past, present, and future.

Discover characters like the Moon Rabbit from Chinese mythology, a kitsune from Japanese mythology, and the aswang from Filipino 

mythology.

Find out what arises when a struggling Malaysian student seeks help for her studies in Chinatown, and what happens when the garbage in the Pacific Ocean is seen as a valuable treasure.

Futures imagined stretch from amazing advances in technology to depressing dystopias.

Read these stories and so many more in Amok: An Anthology of Asia-Pacific Speculative Fiction.

You can find a full list of the authors, and links to where to buy the book
on its Goodreads page. The publisher's website is here.

*The winner will be contacted via the e-mail they used to enter the giveaway for an address to send the book to. If the winner does not answer a new draw will be made. E-mails will be saved until a draw is made and the winner has given me an address to send the book to, after that all the e-mails will be deleted. The e-mail addresses of any who enter will not be shared with anyone, and I will not send any e-mail to anyone but the winner. Should you wish to subscribe to this site's posts via e-mail, you can do that in the right-hand sidebar. You can contact me (Ole/Weirdmage) at the same e-mail address as used for the competition entries.
