Read-along: The Goblin Emperor – week four

The Goblin Emperor - A Wyrd and Wonder Read-along
Read More

A state visit by the forcefully impressive Great Avar is the cue for social events, family gossip and alcohol-fuelled discussions that could have international ramifications.

Don’t Judge A Book By It’s Cover: celebrating fantasy artwork

Wyrd and Wonder 2020

I love doing cover art features (and I don’t do them often enough: note to self, up your game), so when I celebrated spacescape covers back in January I was determined to flip the coin and bang the drum for some fantasy covers for Wyrd and Wonder.

Wyrd and Wonder - celebrate the fantastic
Read More

Wyrd and Wonder 2020
