I've read a couple of St. Anthony's books (reviewed here), and they're quite entertaining quick reads. So, I was quite chuffed when he asked to send me a free e-copy of his latest via Twitter. Similar to one of his earlier books this is about his time as a delivery driver using the various food … Continue reading Book Review: Beverly Hills Postmate by Charles St. Anthony

Book Review: Return of the Werewolf by Guy N. Smith

Our hero has been busy, getting married and knocking up his new wife, although returning to his shooting grounds he rekindles his fling with a farmer's wife. The body of the werewolf has gone missing, and it … Continue reading Book Review: Return of the Werewolf by Guy N. Smith
Book Review: Waiting for Something Better to Happen by Bobbie Allen
I follow this author on Twitter, although I think from before she had her first book out. And despite being a Cardiff fan, she seems a good egg, so I felt a little bad that I won a copy of her book as opposed to buying it. It's a short story collection and filled with … Continue reading Book Review: Waiting for Something Better to Happen by Bobbie Allen
Film Review: Jungle Cruise
This is the third theme park attraction that Disney have turned into a movie, and so far the results have been mixed. The first Pirates of the Caribbean is a fun action thriller that took a simple ride and layered in a story of curses, zombies and benefited from Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow, who stole … Continue reading Film Review: Jungle Cruise
Game Review: SimpleMMO
I seem to be on a bit of a fantasy kick at the moment, and part of it has led me to look for fantasy games on my phone. Ideally I'd want something like a Fighting Fantasy adventure thing, where you follow a story through, maybe with some puzzles thrown in. But a lot of … Continue reading Game Review: SimpleMMO
Film Review: Black Widow
This was my first visit to the cinema in over a year, and it was good to be back in the dark watching a movie on the big screen. This movie, the latest instalment in the MCU was delayed a couple of times because of the whole COVID situation, which is a shame as it … Continue reading Film Review: Black Widow
Film Review: Army of the Dead
Zack Snyder's directorial debut was a zombie movie, 2004's remake of Dawn of the Dead, a movie that I really liked so his return to the undead genre, especially one featuring Dave Bautista leading a team on a heist in a zombie ravaged Las Vegas sounded right up my street. Unfortunately the movie suffers from … Continue reading Film Review: Army of the Dead
Film Review: Raya and the Last Dragon
The latest Disney animated movie is a gorgeous, gripping and entertaining fantasy adventure which continues the studio's current hot streak. While it lacks some of the traditional Disney aspects (songs and a major villain) it continues their ability to tell fantastic, moving stories with likeable, memorable characters. The film is set in Kumandra, a once … Continue reading Film Review: Raya and the Last Dragon
Book Review: The Warlock of Firetop Mountain by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone
This book is a little different from the ones I normally review because while it's definitely fiction it's not a traditional novel. This is part of the Fighting Fantasy series, and they're a series of roleplaying books where the reader chooses how the action unfolds. I've done books like this as a kid, but this … Continue reading Book Review: The Warlock of Firetop Mountain by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone
Book Review: Cofiwch Dryweryn by Mari Emlyn
I think one of the things would surprise teenage Chris is how much of a proud Cymro I have become as I got older. I support independence, I vote Plaid Cymru and I get angry about the way my country, and its language, are routinely insulted, dismissed or ignored. And it seems I'm not alone … Continue reading Book Review: Cofiwch Dryweryn by Mari Emlyn
