REVIEW REQUESTS ON HOLD

NOTICE RE: REVIEW REQUESTING

Due to the monumental backlog of review requests, I simply must place a hiatus on accepting review requests, indefinitely. Beginning April 30, I will not be accepting any requests for reviews.

4. This does not apply to review requests to which I’ve already agreed, nor to blog tour reviews to which I’ve already committed.






Mallory Heart Reviews welcomes all review requests but reserves the right of refusal of any requests. We also reserve the right of timetable: we are severely backlogged but agree to review any accepted requests in as timely a manner as possible. Please understand that there is currently a waiting list on reviews, but we are accomplishing these as quickly as is reasonable.

AND THEY CALLED HER SPIDER by Michael Coorlim_Review

Reviewed for Great Minds Think Aloud


And They Called Her Spider (A Bartleby and James Adventure, #1)And They Called Her Spider by Michael Coorlim

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I love Steampunk: let me say that right up front. I’ve adored the sub-genre ever since I realized it was not Cyberpunk, as I’d initially mistakenly thought. I love everything about Steampunk, and this novella expresses all of that. The mechanisms, the characters, the almost magical engineering, the alternate-probability history, the Victorian Era (extended somewhat farther in the 20th century than we remember in our consensus reality), it’s all fascinating-riveting-enrapturing. “And They Called Her Spider” brings mystery, suspense, action, adventure, crime, and some of the deepest character studies I have ever seen accomplished in a novella. Run, don’t hesitate, to buy this one!

A Bartleby and James Adventure, #1
