New Book Review: Dog Blood by David Moody
Woah ho ho! Drunken Goon must be moving up in the world. Either that or someone didn’t really read my blog too closely and maybe decided I was a “real” reviewer. See, I got sent an Advance Readers’ Edition of Dog Blood by David Moody in the hopes that I’d review it. For some reason, [...]
