The Hole Behind Midnight Review

The Hole Behind Midnight by Clinton J. Boomer is best described as a fist fight between Richard Kadrey, Warren Ellis, and Neil Gaiman. It is brutal, profane, magical, surreal, and entertaining. Did I mention profane? And vulgar. Sometimes too much so for my taste but not in a way that is completely gratuitous. I enjoyed the book immensely. It’s worth buying as long as you are thick-skinned about bad language, gross descriptions upon occasion, demonic she-males and goat boys. There is a neat little mystery mixed up in it all that comes to a satisfying end—even if it is clear there is a sequel to a dangling plot.

I asked Erik Scott de Bie to talk to me about Justice/Vengeance: Libations for the Dead (Vol 1). I love comic books and I like Erik’s writing. So, this kickstarter was a no brainer for me. I’ve worked with Eric on RPGs and and I’ve edited him. I think ya’ll are going to like Justice/Vengeance. Here’s what he had to say about it. —Heroes. That’s what it’s all about. Since I was a kid, I’ve loved superheroes: people who stand out and above the rest, using the powers for the good of everyone.
