Review: The Watchmaker of Filigree Street

It wasn’t exactly a normal robbery. Whoever broke into Nathaniel Steepleton’s rented apartment left without taking anything; and exactly what kind of burglar washes the dishes and then leaves a beautiful gold pocket watch on the pillow? Thaniel felt ridiculous reporting it, and he almost couldn’t blame the police for laughing. It was a lot less

Review – Adam Warren’s Empowered Volume 9

In the newest volume of Adam Warren’s Empowered series, we start out with a recap of Emp’s most recent (mis)adventures, watch her superhero “allies” betray her completely, and see her exiled (in bondage of course) to an uncertain fate at a maximum security ward “for her own safety.” What follows is a surprisingly lighthearted (yet

Two Geeks and a Podcast #Twelve – Be A Superhero

Greetings glorious geeks! This week’s podcast is a big one, clocking in well over our normal 30 min goal, but our talk today could not be constrained or rushed into half an hour.  Last week while at Gateway 2015 we were faced with sexism in a very direct way and we want to talk about

Review – Last First Snow

She was only a passing student of golemetrics, which required more dealing with demons than she liked.

Review: Three Moments of an Explosion

I’ve said it before, but my favorite thing about China Miéville’s writing is how he comes up with ideas that are so off the wall, so completely out of nowhere, and then builds a whole story around them. And they become such a matter-of-fact part of the world you accept the idea completely, as if it
