By Michael Anderle and Daniel Wilcocks
Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments
Caitlin may have freed her town from evil, but the Governor who oppressed them all is still on the loose.
Now, Caitlin and her merry band of Revolutionaries take to the Mad-infested woods to hunt the Governor down and deliver revenge before he can do any further damage.
But, when they arrive at a town bound under the spell of a strange group known as "The Firestarters", Caitlin starts to realize that this could be a lot more difficult than planned.
It's time for Caitlin to jump out of the frying pan, and into the fire....
I really enjoyed reading this second book in the series it had more depth than the first although I enjoyed that one too! The characters are developing well and I love the dynamic between Caitlin, maryanne and Kain. Looking forward to the next challenge and possibly meeting the pack!

I have never read anything by Neil Lancaster before but the blurb sounded right up my street so gave it a punt and I'm so glad I did because what a brilliant start to a series.
Max is a very interesting character with a strong back story which most definitely adds to the story as a whole. There are some dark moments interspersed with lighter times and I particularly like the relationship Max has with his boss, Ross, and colleague, Janie, which felt authentic.
What can I say ... brilliant characters, gripping story line, excellent pace, full of tension and action featuring historical feuds, revenge, dirty coppers, gangsters and all set in beautiful Scotland ... just a fantastic book all round really and I can't wait for the next instalment.
Thank you HQ Digital and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

On one level this is another colourful, slightly cheesy and rather sentimental 1950s western - but on another it has a darkness to it which is quite surprising, for all that this moral ambiguity arguably eventually consumed the genre. It's a film about racism and an obsessive desire for vengeance - the Native Americans in this film are given a degree of depth and generally treated respectfully, but the film is honest about the savage conflict between them and the colonial population, and Wayne's mania for revenge, though understated, is clear. The film's subtexts about the importance of family and what it means to be an American are well-presented, though no doubt problematic for many modern viewers. Still, this is a hugely important and influential western and probably a great movie too.

deadpool
plot
A fast-talking mercenary with a morbid sense of humor is subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers and a quest for revenge.
What lessons did you learn from this story (theme/moral)? What do you think others will learn from it?
just because you are just a mortal doesn't mean you are not a superhero. a superhero is just a regular doing the right thing for the right reasons. true love makes you do things you thought you couldn't.
What group of people would like this movie? Who would you recommend it to? Who would you not recommend it to?
i would recommend it to anyone that likes a good action and a good comedy movie. As well as a good superhero (well technically superhero) movie
What is your final word on the film: Is it good or bad?
i would call deadpool a good movie.

The Crow’s murder ( Kit Davenport book 5)
By Tate James
Well, I just can't seem to catch a break, can I?
None of us saw it coming, no matter what precautions we took or how many contingencies we put into play.
What’s the point of having all this power when everyone is out to get me?
They say things are darkest before the light, and that the storm gets worse before it clears. Trust me when I say platitudes don’t do a damn bit of good when you’re in the middle of it.
I’m Kit Davenport, and my heart is breaking.
Holy cow how much can happen in one book! Emotional rollercoaster for Kit and her men but Kit losing Wesley then Johnathan then Lucy I would just give up! She gets Wesley back to lose herself and River! What a bitch of a mother too! I’m looking forward to Kit getting some revenge! I just hope her remaining men don’t get left behind! I enjoyed this book it certainly gave her something to fight for!
