Mark Brend’s debut novel is reminiscent of Haruki Murakami, if Murakami wrote about the drizzly British countryside.

It’s been a long time since I’ve disliked a novel as much as this one.

A few of my favorite passages (so far) from Gene Wolfe’s Book of the New Sun.

I can safely say that Wolfe’s novels are unlike anything else I’ve ever read, sci-fi or otherwise.

Christians have often been guilty of promoting and encouraging art that denies the complexities of human existence.

A rousing, strongly principled adventure story that I would’ve loved to read back in 5th grade (but I still enjoyed it as an adult).

Chakraborty’s novel finds inspiration in Islamic and Middle-Eastern religion and culture for its exotic world-building.

Tsutomu Nihei’s manga masterpiece is a journey through a bizarre world filled with nightmarish technology run amok.

On its surface, Black Science feels like an homage to classic and pulp sci-fi.

A brilliant modern fantasy that weaves in various genre tropes without ever feeling like a mere fantasy novel.

Aposimz contains plenty of Nihei trademarks plus a few tweaks​ that give it some unique flavor, too.

Vertical Comics’ excellent reprint captures all of the engrossing and unsettling detail in Nihei’s intricate artwork.
