Book Review: Guns of the Dawn

It was in 2018 that I bought Guns of the Dawn by Adrian Tchaikovsky…back when the Big Bad Wolf visited the City where I was currently working. And I picked it because the whole cover spoke of this steampunk aura, a genre that I have come to love as I journeyed through my reading career. Guns of the Dawn would be my first Adrian Tchaikovsky and it was a pleasant surprise despite me having to put it down numerous times. I started reading the book in 2018 and only finished it this year. Wow. I guess my faculties were not…

Book Review: The Hammer of Thor

Just like his other books and the first Gods of Asgards books, I was smiling as I reached the end of this book. The Hammer of Thor is a spectacular sequel to The Sword of Summer and is further proof of Riordan’s prowess when it comes to mythology. Although it’s obvious that he recycled some stuff from his previous books, The Hammer of Thor and The Sword of Summer were still enjoyable reads that I breezed through them in a very short amount of time. I finished this book in a day while doing household chores and the usual fix…
