Nick Reads and Reviews: 2004-2007 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798295665394)

Since 2004, horror fiction writer Nicholas Grabowsky has reviewed books given to him from authors and their agents and publishers large and small, paying particular attention to what the smaller presses have to offer. Never reviewing for payment or profit, he used these reviews as a discipline towards maintaining a reading schedule and as writing exercises, to critique and advise and express honest opinion, and to get lots of free books. These reviews comprise the first three years as originally published on various websites, complete with new essays exclusive to this book (though previously published individually elsewhere). This compilation, the first in a series, consists of books primarily published and reviewed from 2004 through 2007. This work isn't a mere collection of book reviews, but chronicles and spotlights writers and their works and the state of the horror fiction industry over a specific period of yesteryear.
