New Review: Book of More Flesh
Merwin was so moved by Eden Studios‘ zombie fiction anthology, The Book of More Flesh, that he composed OgreCave’s first song. Yeah, you heard me. Sing along! Just follow the bouncing corpse. Don’t let it bite you, though.
New Review: Construct Mechanus
Frank brings his first contribution to the Cave’s hoard of reviews, as he takes a look at Construct Mechanus from Philip J. Reed. Will the d20 supplement function as a well-oiled machine in his game sessions, or be left to rust on the shelf? Have a look and find out.

New Review: Rookie’s Guide to Criminal Organisations
To start this year ending/beginning week off right, Matthew brings us his evaluation of The Rookie’s Guide to Criminal Organisations by Mongoose Publishing. I keep wanting to correct the British spelling of that last word in the title, but the publisher’s from the UK (and so is the reviewer), so

We’ve got two new reviews to get you through the weekend. First, Joe’s had a pre-release sneak peak at
New Review: Santa’s Soldiers – Second Edition
Demian has done us all a great service by reviewing the most festive of all violent roleplaying games, Santa’s Soldiers: Second Edition by Deep7. How does it compare to the original version? Do elves bleed green, red, or eggnog? Find out inside.
