Nick Nikolov used to read fantasy in high school and play a lot of video games, emphasis mainly on games. First encounter with amazing storytelling was in a game called “Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver” for a hard-to-come-by Playstation console – you read that right, the very first Playstation. The importance of amazing stories became starkly apparent since that encounter. In the coming years up until graduation from University with a bachelor’s degree in Automation, games were my main source of gripping narratives.

Upon entering the workforce, the need to create grew so great that a change had to be […]

Daniel James is an author of speculative (and sometimes dark and weird) fiction from Liverpool, England. His character-driven, action-packed urban fantasy novel, Hourglass, received a Kirkus Star from Kirkus Reviews, and was voted one of their Best 100 Indie novels of 2021.

In his mid-teens, he got his first bass guitar and joined his first band. No […]
