Minotaur

Book Review- Minotaur by Phillip W. Simpson

Legends and myths contain nuggets of truth, oft buried beneath the detritus of time. Layer upon layer added until sometimes what is has become a distorted reflection of what was. With Minotaur, Simpson has given us just such a story of what might have been. Not the chimeric creature of legend, half human and half […]

7 Classic Cinematic Dystopias
