A father and daughter living in the remote Appalachian mountains must reckon with the ghosts of their past in Kimi Cunningham Grant's These Silent Woods, a mesmerising audiobook of suspense.⁣ ⁣ No electricity. No family. No connection to the outside world.⁣ This is my review.

GOOD BOY is a 2025 horror film told entirely from the perspective of a loyal dog named Indy, who moves with his owner, Todd, to a secluded country home. While Todd battles a worsening, possibly fatal illness, Indy begins to sense supernatural forces and entities within the house, things invisible to human eyes. The story builds to a chilling climax as a dark force attempts to claim Todd, while Indy fights to save him.⁣

While this is meant to be an Auto Biography of a fictional character, Captain Kathryn Janeway, the author is really Una McCormack, listed as Editor (clever). Narrator: The marvellous Kate Mulgrew Review: By Star Trek Megafan Jason King Let me start by saying: this book is absolutely for STAR TREK fans; more specifically, for those of us who hold VOYAGER close to our hearts.

Written by Peter FitzSimons Published 2013 Reviewed by Jason King I’ve just finished the monumental task of listening to Peter FitzSimons’ NED KELLY: THE STORY OF AUSTRALIA'S MOST NOTORIOUS LEGEND, a 30-hour audiobook I started on August 17th. As I mentioned back then, I’ve shifted to audiobooks exclusively, alternating between fiction and non-fiction.

Written by Tomasz Jedrowski Published 2020 Book Review⁣⁣ by Jason King ⁣⁣ My latest read was a very different experience from my month-long slog through Ned Kelly - I devoured this one in just four days. I first picked it up years ago at the now-closing Bookshop Darlinghurst, drawn in by its stunning cover of a young man and knowing it was a queer novel. What sealed it for me was that it’s set in 1980s Poland - my bloodlines, my heritage. In so many ways, this could have been
