Red Wolf is a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood by Rachel Vincent. I went into this book not realizing it was a YA story. I’ve read several of Rachel Vincent’s adult stories, but never a YA from her. I’m really picky about YA stories, but there’s been a few that I’ve loved over the […]
A Shadow in Ember is the first book the Flesh and Fire series which is also a prequel to the Blood and Ash series. You should have read the first three books in the Blood and Ash series before jumping into this. I am a total rule breaker apparently since I’ve only read the first two books […]
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 […]
Crime Fiction is a recent addition to my reading obsession. I’ve read my fair share of Romantic Suspense, Period/Historical Mystery, and Cozies; and absolutely love a good intrigue in books to keep me guessing until the end of the story. Until this point, I haven’t ever been drawn to the grit and reality of Crime […]
Difficult Neighbours is the seventh book in The Order series by A.C. Donaubauer. It is a fun fantasy series that follows mostly Eryn and Enric. They split their time between two countries, Anyueel, where Enric is from and where Eryn was raised, and Takhan, where Eryn’s family is from and still lives. They are very […]
I am always a bit worried these days when starting a new book with rich world-building and character development, because I may feel overwhelmed with the details. It also can be hard when one read the last book a year ago and may not remember details. Happily, I started A Song of Flight and it […]
Ash is the first book in prequel to the Dragonheart Saga by the same author. I have not read that series so can’t comment on how it ties in but it can be read without any prior knowledge of this world. The story is told in the present with jumps back to the past for […]
Walk the Wild with Me is one of my older ARCs. I don’t remember what happened exactly but I had a lot happening in my life and didn’t get to it. I’d say it is kind of a mash up of Robin Hood and Celtic fae folk. It is set in the “Robin Hood” time […]
Micheal J. Sullivan has created a world I just cannot get enough of. Nolyn is the first book in the new The Rise and Fall trilogy. It is actually the 13th full length novel set in the fantastic Fantasy world of Elan with stories spanning millennia. While this is a new series and supposed to […]
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 […]
