#blacklibrary books are usually in three categories. Bad pulp, meaning the tropes are dull and the story is boring, uninteresting or lacking any competent storytelling, characters or plot. Good pulp, where the tropes are fun, action is exciting, competent storytelling. Then there is the genuinely great stuff, not just good (by the low standard of books meant to novelize a table top game), but genuinely good science fiction which uses this (I'd argue) dark compelling world to tell interesting stories, offer emotionally resonate characters and examine our own world.

It’s that time again. I’ve drafted, edited, agonized and bled over six stories I intend to publish as the next collection in The Veiled Sagas. The working title; Wild Things.
