Deadly Games by Tom Bale Today I am thrilled to share my thoughts on the brand new novel from Tom Bale, Deadly Games, which is out today. Happy publication day Tom! I am a huge fan of Tom's books and was so very happy to hear that he was signed with Boldwood Books and a new book was incoming. My thanks to the publisher for the early copy for review via Netgalley.

Happy publication day Tom Bale. Deadly Games is out now and marks a very welcome return from a brilliant writer.

Rewind Recap: Weekly Update W/E 16/11/25 Okay. So this will be a very short post. Worked five whole days this week - what’s that about? - and been nowhere interesting over the weekend as weather was too meh. By meh, I mean wet and miserable so a walk to Costa coffee was the highlight of my two precious days off. I did have something positive this week though - after prepping my post for last Monday, I checked my work emails and found out I passed my apprenticeship.
