Movie Review: Chief Daddy 2 (Going for Broke)
Chief Daddy 2 has all the proper ingredients, and makings of a modern Nigerian dramatic comedy.
Malice (The Faithful and The Fallen #1) by John Gwynne
Then there are the themes in the book. Everything needed for a perfect dish of dark, grim fantasy is here. Magic? Check. Betrayal? Aplenty. Violence? You can literally hear the screams of dying men. A flawed hero? There’s more than one flawed hero here.
Tyrant’s Throne (Greatcoats #4) by Sebastien de Castell
It’s a testament to the writer’s storytelling and plot-twisting skills that he’s able to get his characters into so much trouble and then get them out, all without giving his readers the impression that he’s being overly partial.
The Fifth Empire of Man (Best Laid Plans #2) by Rob J. Hayes
The fighting is hats off, badass! The descriptions of sex are just as vivid as the gruesome literary pictures of broken skulls, disemboweled soldiers, hamstrung men and women, and decapitated men lying in pools of blood and gore.
Blood of Assassins (The Wounded Kingdom #2) by R.J Barker
Moving on, I love the way the author portrayed the events here. His writing and world-building improved greatly.
Ghostwater (Cradle #5) by Will Wight
The world-building is beyond average; it’s awesome. Will Wight literally has a different world-building because each book is set in a different location.
The God is Not Willing (Witness #1) by Steven Erikson
Despite the Malazans being soldiers and all, they are still compassionate. It reminds me of what they did in Capustan. I was scared that the marines here would be a rip-off of the others, but I was wrong.
