Don't worry, you're not going insane... This is actually a fantasy book review! With my reading slump kicking my arse for months on end I figured it was time to get out of my comfort zone and try something new. Welcome to my review of John Gwynne's "The Shadow Of The Gods". I might have cultivated an image as "The Death Guy" but did this norse inspired epic fantasy satisfy my lust for blood, guts, gore and intense suffering? Settle in, get comfy and I'll tell you all the things rattling around in my thought cage. Got thoughts to share? Fancy a chat?

The Bleeding Ground, a #Authortube Original series, is back for volume 7! "Dark Omens & Big Dreams" follows Emine as she deals with the implications of her troubling dream but there's more to worry about than the looming shadow of Valdus Doyle. As Emine and Evander navigate their growing attraction the duo are faced with a dangerous proposition that could change the future of the Northern Kingdom.

Welcome to another evening with Mason In The Dark! I thought we could get together to celebrate my birthday with a Tag Tuesday live show. From my favourite candle scent to the controversial "is a hotdog a sandwhich" debate we're tackling the 50 Questions Tag as well as a few questions submitted by you guys. Whether you catch this live or on demand thanks ever so much for spending time with me and I hope you have a good'un 😉
This Tag Tuesday I'm tackling "The Evolution Of A Reader", originally created by Jack from Spread Book Joy. When did I start reading? How has it shaped me? Has booktube changed the way I read? This tag takes a look at all of that as I explore my evolution as a reader, writer and person in general. Thanks to Jack for creating such an original, thought provoking tag.

The Bleeding Ground, an Authortube Original series, is back for volume 6! "The Canary Cage" picks up six months after the events of "Enemies Of The Crown", nine months since Evander found his home destroyed in "Desolation", but as Evander and Emine settle in for a night of drunken shenanigans perhaps cider isn't the only thing brewing in the town of Minton.
