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. One of them is Cyberpunk Girls from the Uroboros publishing house. It is difficult to say whether it is a planned action or more of a coincidence. 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. A group of both quite average and human, as well as fantastically unusual heroes from the new anthology from the Wilga publishing house prove that the cold season can abound in unexpected adventures.
"A huge surprise" - a review of the book "Nawiść"
I did not expect any book to surprise me in 2020. Until a messenger arrived with a mysterious package.
Creepypasts, or the fears of pop culture's closet
Creepypasts are a fragment of the dark side of pop culture - it is often thanks to them that we end up in strange corners of the Internet in the middle of the night and feverishly tell ourselves that their content is made up. But where is the line between fact and fiction, and is it possible to define it at all?
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,...

And I'm reading mulled wine Urban Fantasy - review of the book "Pumpkin and Mistletoe"
Short anthologies are the type of publication that I always reach for with great pleasure. When I also see that one of my favorite Polish authors wrote it, I'm definitely bought.
A large white one with oat milk and a kick please! - review of the book "Miracle Honey Malina" by Aneta Jadowska
Who of us has not survived at least once a tiring family event, full of uncomfortable questions, running kids and insistent aunts. The very thought makes a hair bristle on the head, and the legs are tearing away. Now imagine that your loved ones are a very close-knit coven of witches, in which there are few men, but women are characterized by enormous energy and unpredictability.
Teeth, birds, freedom - a review of the book “Wrona. Whispers of Teeth "
The Crow Margaret Owen is a debut and a young adult, which means it's easy to miss. Meanwhile, it's a great story written in a light, inventive style.
