Every mad scientist and/or evil overlord usually has a host of henchmen and sycophants serving them in various capacities. One specialist who is usually not found among these highly paid people with a low life expectancy is a personal style advisor.

It is time to share some of the pictures I have accumulated on my hard drive over months and months… I do not recall where I got most of those from (except for the Blitzkrieg Kittens, my brother sent me that one). The fun tank designs and tracked vehicles are (mostly) real. I guess some [...]

Now, my preference for Angry Robot Books has several reasons: They’ve got Lavie Tidhar They’ve got Guy Adams They’ve got Dan Abnett They are based in Nottingham (home sweet home…) I have thus far not encountered a single book [...]
