Black Powder War review

June 8, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Black Powder War is the 3rd in the Temeraire series, and continues Laurence's adventures in the Napoleonic Wars. Like the first two novels, it's a fun, easy read, just the right length. It's not without its issues, and is somewhat slower than the other books, and there's a real lack of action.

UFC 5

I've played a few of the UFC games in the past, and while I like them, I've never spent a ton of time with them. UFC 5 was on sale, so I picked it up with some credit I had for the Playstation Store. It's pretty fun, and definitely the best UFC simulator yet.

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form review writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
