Gripping, couldnt put it down
I could not put this book down, I love the story and the different time frames, I was nearly always itching to read the next 'past tense chapter hoping to find out more. I like the lead Detective. The characters were well thought up. I did guess whodunnit so it didnt have the full suspense for me but overall a good read. I would agree with others who have stated it is not as good as The Dry but still has it's own merit and worth a read.

Gripping LetRPG
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Having already devoured a Luke Chmilenko collaboration, I was greatly anticipating Savage Dominion by Luke Chmilenko and G.D. Penman. This book did not disappoint!!

From the very beginning, this book reads like the best RPG you have ever played. Three unlikely characters become travelling companions, and then almost friends as they take on challenges and quests together. We see them levelling up and learning new skills and abilities as they proceed on their journey.

Already looking forward to Savage Dominion: Wyrmshard!!

This podcast is beautiful to listen to. Season one swept me away with the beautiful imagery and subtle (and not so subtle) hints of wrongness. Season two wasn't quite as gripping, but still beautifully written and intriguing. I hope they'll connect in season three.

The movie...just the ending, they changed it, it was bad. (0 more)
The ending though!
My first Richard Matheson book. It was a quick read not just because it was short but also because it was gripping.

This one is like the previous, from Jonah's point of view, this character is easier to relate to than his brother, we are still following the main story line which is very gripping and enjoyable.

Still super bad sex scenes bringing down the overall rating!
