The Apocalypse Codex by Charles Stross Charles Stross continues to entertain with The Apocalypse Codex, the fourth novel in his LAUNDRY FILES series. I suppose you could read this without reading the first three books, but it’d be better to start with book one, The Atrocity Archives. For this review, I’ll assume you’re familiar with […]

As a German linguist, I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to translate prose like this. Simply amazing. Walter Moerstakes us back into the […]
