Dead Space: Novel Review
Wallace is the queen of misdirection. This is my favourite read this year, by far! I would 100% recommend it, whether you’re a space horror fan or not.
Ghost Station: Novel Review
GHOST STATION is a slow burn, really playing up the feeling of loneliness and isolation. Barnes takes her time building up the atmosphere and the immediate distrust the crew already has of the main character.

The Last Astronaut: Book Review
Wellington’s prose is very direct and compelling, his characters are diverse, his scenes cinematic, and the horror within the alien object? Well, I won’t spoil anything. I will say that the suspense/horror ramp up at light-speed, culminating in an deliciously insane ending.

Beulah - Novel Review
Character-driven and heavy with atmosphere, Beulah pulls the reader into a slow-burning ghost story as surreal as a dream, but rife with brutal moments of harsh reality. Gothic foreboding colours every page of this novel.
