Paranormal Historical
A Reflection of Shadows is the third (and latest) book in Anne Renwick’s Elemental Web Chronicles – part of her steampunk series set in an alternate Victorian London. Each of the books features a different central couple and self-contained plot, and are thus designed to work as standalones; ...
Bec McMaster has created a detailed and original world for her London Steampunk series, a steam-powered but recognisable version of Victorian London that is populated by humans, mechanoids and blue bloods and ruled over by the Echelon. When I reviewed the first book, Kiss of Steel, I gave a bri ...
Bec McMaster has done it again. Fast paced, suspenseful and romantic, To Catch a Rogue is a terrific addition to her marvelous London Steampunk universe. Like its predecessors, the novel spotlights one couple whilst integrating their love story into the larger overarching plot linking The Blue ...
The third book in Bec McMaster’s London Steampunk: The Blue Blood Conspiracy series, You Only Love Twice boasts an engrossing, intricately-woven and high-stakes suspense plot woven through a steamy second-chance romance and I was glued to it from pretty much start to finish. We’ve reached th ...

I’ll start this review by saying that while The Mech Who Loved Me could be read as a standalone novel, it probably won’t make much sense to you unless you have read at least some of Bec McMaster’s London Steampunk books. In that series, the author introduces and develops her alternative visi ...
Spectred Isle - a title playing on words from Shakespeare’s Richard II – is the first book in a new series based around the natural magic of the English Green Man myth and it’s written by K.J. Charles. Do I need to say more? Okay, that was a rhetorical question. In short, it’s a fantastic ...
This book is a magnificent read and homage to the tradition of Victorian paranormal stories, and their ilk.

The Secret Casebook of Simon Feximal is almost the ‘queering ...
