⭐⭐⭐ .5 Stars Review From the Book Blurb 100,000 years ago the object hit the lake at the deepest point, quickly sinking into its mile-deep stygian darkness. The sheets of ice closed, time moved on, and the land forgot. But over the centuries, legends grew of people vanishing, of strange, deformed animals, and of an unexplained luminescence down in the lake depths. When Marcus Stenson won the lucrative contract to create a sturgeon fish farm on the site of a disused paper mill on the shore of Lake Baikal, he thought he had hit the jackpot. He refused to listen to the chilling folktales, or even be concerned by the occasional harassment from the local mafia. But then animals were found mutilated in the frozen forest, and people started to go missing. And worse, some came back, changed, horribly. In the depths of the lake, something that had been waiting 100,000 years was stirring. And it needed the warmth of mankind to survive. The Siberian Incident Review I became a fan of Greig after ...

  From the Back Cover Dejah Thoris has saved her world from the catastrophic End Winter. Now she must help rebuild Barsoom to its former greatness! But certain factions see benefit in keeping Barsoom cold and dark. Dejah will need help, and she may find it in the return of her true love…JOHN CARTER! Dejah Thoris: Winter's End by Dan Abnett Available at Amazon -   https://www.amazon.com/Dejah-Thoris-Winters-One-Shot-2019-ebook/dp/B08SWKL69D Winter's End is a collection of short stories that feature the characters of Barsoom in various engagements and encounters. This book acts as a sort of filler for the upcoming battle with the Longborn.  Its been decades since I picked up a non Tarzan, ERB book (Edgar Rice Burroughs for people who don't know the creator of Tarzan). I was fascinated by the adventures of earthmen in the planets of Barsoom and Cosoom (Mars and Venus respectively), although the stories written a century back are somewhat dated and smack of wholly colonial th...
