Illuminations is a cute story. I enjoy T. Kingfisher and this is one of those books that were supposed to satisfy her middle grade or kids book publishing but just was too adult for that and so it is published under her adult moniker. I guess this also happened with A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive […]
Thornhedge is a a new kind of fairytale where the heroine isn’t beautiful and looking to be saved and the night is gentle and doesn’t really want to kill anyone. In the beginning, it seems like a Sleeping Beauty story and while there is a maiden in a tower no one should save her. Toadling […]
I’m working my way through T. Kingfishers entire catalog and picked up Sumer in Orcas when it was a kindle deal. I’ve enjoyed every story by her that I have read so far and Summer In Orcas is continuing that trend. A portal fantasy in the same vein as Narnia but with a little extra […]
T. Kingfisher is a favorite author of mine, but I primarily read her fantasy. A House With Good Bones is more horror-lite and southern gothic. It was both funny and a little bit creepy, until it was a lot a bit creepy. After this book, I will never look at vultures and roses in the […]
Leave it to T. Kingfisher to take an Edgar Allen Poe tale and turn it on it’s ear to something very different and somewhat twisted. What Moves the Dead is a strange retelling of Edgar Allen Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher. You do not need to have read The Fall of the […]
Paladin’s Hope is the third book in the Saint’s of Steel series following a cast of broken characters who went a little insane when their god died. Not many made it back from that and those that did are shells of what they used to be but the Order of the White Rat has found […]
Kingfisher has become one of my favorite authors. Her sense of humor is one I really enjoy, I have so much fun when I read her books. Nettle and Bone was exactly what I’ve come to expect from Kingfisher’s bools. Nettle and Bone is a standalone tale with interesting characters, on a journey they will […]
T. Kingfisher is my favorite new author find this year. I’ve been making my way through her catalog as her books make it to the audio format. Paladin’s Strength is the second book in the Saint’s of Steel series. T. Kingfisher loves to poke a little fun at all the paladin tropes and she doesn’t […]
T. Kingfisher is one of my new favorite author finds this year and so far it doesn’t matter if it is Young Adult, Middle-Grade (like this book is) or a PG-13 Fantasy book all of them have been fantastic so far. A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking is no exception. It is a standalone book […]
T. Kingfisher is quickly becoming a new favorite author of mine. Paladin’s Grace is the fourth book I’ve read by her and she really does the blend of romance and fantasy, what I like to call romantasy, together so well. Paladin’s Grace is set in the World of the Rat, after both the Clocktaur Wars […]
