postheadericon new reviews for july-august

I have a bunch of new reviews coming soon for many October release books.

I’ll be taking a look at Jon Sprunk’s Shadow’s Son, which I’m looking forward to as I love that rogue-centred fantasy as you all know. The following blurb for it promises much, too;

Treachery and corruption lurk at the end of every street, in the holy city of Othir. It’s the perfect place for a freelance assassin with no loyalties and even fewer scruples.
Caim makes – or perhaps more accurately, takes – his living on the edge of a blade. Murder is a risky business, but so far he reckons he’s on the right side of it. Or he was… because when a short-notice contract job goes south, Caim finds himself thrust into the middle of a sinister plot in which he seems to be one of the primary marks. Pitted against crooked lawmen, rival killers and the darkest kinds of sorcery, it’s going to take more than luck if he’s to get through this alive.
He may lack scruples, but he’s still got his knives, and his instincts, to rely on and a developed sense of revenge (or should that be justice?) to fall back on. But when his path leads him from the hazardous back streets of Othir and into the highest halls of power, will instincts and weapons alone really be enough?
If Caim is really going to unravel the plot which has snared him, to unmask a conspiracy at the heart of the empire, he will have to finally claim his birthright as the Shadow’s Son…

I’ll also be returning (at last) to James Barclay, who has Elves: Once Walked With Gods coming soon. And I’ll be giving Tom Lloyd a darn good review with the four in his series passing across my lap.

So there’s a few things coming over the next few weeks! Plus, of course, a few more articles and reviews now I’m settling in Melbourne and have the internet back, my computer firmly fixed and online, and my current job going along more smoothly.
