Elysium Fire by Alastair Reynolds
Read more: Elysium Fire by Alastair ReynoldsIn the realm of science fiction, few authors can match the sheer popularity and imagination of Alastair Reynolds, and his 2018 release, “Elysium Fire,” is yet another testament to his easiness with the genre. I must admit some of his novels are a hit or miss for me but you will not know until you…

Babel by RF Kuang
Read more: Babel by RF KuangIt certainly had a lot of hype to live up to, but it fell flat on its face like a drunken sorcerer stumbling over their incantations. First of all, let’s talk about Rin, our so-called anti-heroine. Instead of evolving into a compelling character, she morphs into a frustrating mess of contradictions. Her decisions are baffling…

League of Legends: Ruination by Anthony Reynolds
Read more: League of Legends: Ruination by Anthony ReynoldsMore like the ruin of me. This book is a disappointing read that fails to deliver on its promise of exploring the history of Warhammer 40,000’s Chaos Space Marines. Before I continue, I have to say however, for someone who didn’t play the game League of Legend, it’s a story that you could read without…

The Portrait of The Artist as A Young Man by James Joyce
