Long time no see! I hope you’ve all been keeping well. I’ve been playing my games and getting into movies in a big way, think I’ve even found my way out of my reading slump. But that’s not why I’m here today. You see, a friend of mine, Cal Black, has the second book in her fantasy series coming out and I’m here to share the book cover with you. A book cover reveal, if you will. The series is…
Happy September, everybody! Time to take a look at some of the most interesting science fiction, horror, and fantasy book releases in September 2022. I must admit, it’s been a slow reading month for me. I’ve been trying to prepare for a new Dungeons & Dragons campaign that needs a lot of reading and research so naturally, I started watching Lucifer instead.

Now how could I, Ms. Dragons and Whimsy, enter into a book tour with the absolutely lovely L.L. MacRae and not ask her to talk to us about dragons?! Dragons are very much her “thing” and so I leapt at the chance just to hear her wax lyrical about the magical dinosaurs of the skies. So read on! And be sure to check out Moroda by L.L. MacRae and enter into Escapist’s giveaway to win an ebook copy for yourself at…
