Pendant in the shape of an eye - review of the novel "The Eye of Horus"
The novel The Eye of Horus , which premiered on November 12, 2020, stands on a shelf marked with a sensational plaque . I looked at her for a long time.

On the border of Legendarium - a review of the book “Gospodarz Giles z Ham. Blacksmith from Przylesie Wielki. The Adventures of Tom Bombadil ”by JRR Tolkien
I know that a lot of time has passed since the premiere, but due to the busy schedule, I had no time and place to read the latest revival of Tolkien's prose by Zysk.

Not so much cyberpunk - "Cyberpunk Girls" book review
Along with the upcoming premiere of the newest game from CD Project Red, there are also other items on the market referring to the style of cyberpunk.

The fact remains, however, that shortly before the Reds' production appeared, we could reach for this...
A psychological ruse - a review of the book "Winda" by Tomasz Sablik
Successful horror literature should not only attack the reader with examples of macabre descriptions of crimes, but above all evoke that particular kind of subcutaneous anxiety that will not allow the recipient to squint at night.
They are going into the world by sledging, the sled is calling ... adventures! - review of the book "Winter Magic"
The winter and Christmas period is for many of us quiet evenings under a blanket with a warm drink in our hands. However, not everyone can enjoy them in such an idyllic way.

I did not expect any book to surprise me in 2020. Until a messenger arrived with a mysterious package.
Pass me the exoskeleton, i.e. the review of the book "The Anthology of Polish Cyberpunk"
This little anthology contains only five short stories, but they are at least interesting. Each of the authors - Paweł Majka, Łukasz Orbitowski, Tobiasz Piątkowski, Robert J. Szmidt and Robert Wegner - approached the vision of the future of Poland differently. They have one thing in common - the vision of people as a hybrid of bodies and electronics. The reader has the opportunity to consider...
About Chinese swan T-shirts, dragons fulfilling the wishes of fairies and the Bohun we deserved - review of the book "Harde Tales"
Fairy tales more or less accompany us from an early age, and for many they are even the first meeting with fantasy. It happens that we come back to them also in adulthood - be it out of sentiment or in order to introduce a younger generation to their world. The SQN publishing house in its new publication from the Harda series once again invites you to the fairy-tale themes we know from childhood,...
