Hey, folks! I've got for you a new review about Jeff VanderMeer's Veniss Underground, a fascinating if somewhat flawed work. A lot happens across these two-hundred-and-fifty pages: a heartbreaking tale of separation and rediscovery, a descent into the underworld, a Biblical struggle between man and cruel god--all of it written with prose at once substantial...

https://youtu.be/nLfQAKglKrA A Plague Tale: Innocence is a remarkable third-person narrative game, telling the story of Amicia and Hugo de Rune as they evade the Inquisition during the peak of the bubonic plague in France. I am IN LOVE with the characters and horrified by the world; I think, you will be, too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgDoV76A3RI I don't necessarily have the best opinion of content I've worked on in the past but I had a friend over this last Friday and I happened to show her the trailer of the recently announced Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 (it looks great, you can see it here) and she'd never heard of the...

Hullo and welcome (back) to my blog! It's been a little while since last I had the pleasure of working on a blog entry for this here Grimoire Reliquary and since I just finished two rather small works (in terms of content), I thought now might be a good time to tell you about these...

I enjoyed my time with Annihilation. The plot of the novel takes place in Area X, a self-contained environment quite capable of winning the 2015 Nebula award for science fiction. More important, Area X is home to a mysterious tower that goes not up, but down into the ground. This tower houses unusual, even alien... Continue Reading →
The connection between a vampire and his progenitor is a sacred one, akin to that between a parent and a child. Naturally, I began plotting the murder of my maker in order to claim his influence and authority for myself as soon as I was turned...once I were to get my predatory instincts under control...

Catch up here. Where last I left off, horror had nestled itself deep within my heart. My associates had contacted me, not as individuals were prone to do but as a group, in one collective voice, a cold, inhuman thing. Speech of such otherworldly nature as to leave no doubt within the depths of my... Continue Reading →
Be warned! The following Inqusitorial Scripture takes place in the world of The Unintentionally Helpful Villain and, quite possibly, of a few other entities I have written about, in this here blog. In a world filled with a host of monsters, demons and an entire Council of Darkness, Brezt Khleid, Inquisitor of the First Order,... Continue Reading →
Today's post is written in celebration of the release of the Darkest Dungeon's DLC - The Crimson Court. Brilliant game, narrated by the wonderful Wayne June (perhaps the most atmospheric narrator of Lovecraft's works). In seeking knowledge, I enrolled into that most prestigious of places for higher learning...the Miskatonic University. Though this repository of knowledge has... Continue Reading →
