"Sword and Sorcery on steroids, with ruthless mayhem on every page. Lorelei’s savage quest is packed with ferocious battles, primal fury, and nonstop, gore-inducing action. Bludgeon creates a world dripping with violent imagery, where every moment crackles with danger. It’s hardcore female barbarian action at its finest—raw, bloody, and impossible to put down. This tale will make your eyes bleed and your heart stop!"
- review of Lorelei the Berserker
"It certainly isn't sanitized, "safe" sword & sorcery. This is brutal, visceral and raw S&S. Lorelei is probably one of the most savage warriors in the genre's history, but that doesn't mean she's cruel or evil. She's (very) brutal to her enemies and loyal to her friends. If you feel the genre has gotten too safe or toned down, then this is the book you need to pick up!"
- review of Lorelei the Berserker
"Lorelei is a fascinating character, both alluring and despicable, complex and hard as steel. This is classic pulpy sword-and-sorcery. It's violent, fast paced, and has splashes of eroticism, necromancy, mystery and debauchery. If you're tired of barbarian fiction without any "teeth", then give this one a try."
- review of Lorelei the Berserker
"The Tower by Bludgeon is short but it is also a bloody, high octane gristmill of a story. I picture Lorelei as a character from Heavy Metal and painted by Simon Bisley."
