I’ve enjoyed this author and many of her series. I received the first book as a Amazon First Read because I have Prime. I purchased the audio book for $1.99 using shipping points. It is available currently in Kindle Unlimited with audio. The Naturalist Society is a historical type fantasy, which means woman […]

Questland by Carrie Vaughn #CarrieVaughn @MarinerBooks @HarperCollins

I am a fan of this author, but I am not a gamer. Questland is a gamer fantasy with plenty of nods to different pantheons like Dungeons & Dragons, Lord of the Rings and many, many more. I am certain I missed several references because I am not familiar with them. Our point of view […]

Kitty’s Mix Tape by Carrie Vaughn #CarrieVaughn @TachyonPub

It’s been five years since Kitty Saves the World and I loved the recent book about her good friend, Rick in The Immortal Conquistador. Kitty’s Mix Tape is a collection of new and reprinted stories in her world. I always appreciate short story anthologies so one doesn’t have to go out and find them separately […]

The Immortal Conquistador by Carrie Vaughn #CarrieVaughn @TachyonPub

It’s been five years since Kitty Saves the World and now we get the story, past and present of her good friend, Rick. I saw The Immortal Conquistador and knew I must read it. I remember not being sure about Rick initially and certainly unsure of other vampires in Kitty’s world. But Rick always seemed […]

The setting is a post-apocalyptic world where the main character, Enid, is an investigator. This is the primary form of law enforcement which works in teams on everything from minor disputes about resources to […]

Bannerless by Carrie Vaughn #CarrieVaughn #MarinerBooks

Carrie Vaughn is an author I’ve always enjoyed. Her Kitty Norville series is one of the first urban fantasy ones I read. Bannerless is more science fiction dystopia than supernatural. The world-building is great; there are enough details to give a vivid image without being tedious. This world has social and political […]

The anthology includes seventeen short stories from many authors which I have mentioned in the order within Urban Enemies. I have read only five of these authors but they are some of my favorites so I was excited. After all, reading an anthology like this, which was edited by a mystery […]

Early Review: Martians Abroad by Carrie Vaughn

Since I really enjoyed this author’s Kitty Norville books and I’ve rediscovered my love of science fiction, Martians Abroad seemed like a perfect fit. I was so excited to read it. It was interesting while I was reading and learning about the world and the characters. People are living on Earth and Mars and various […]
