If you have enjoyed Jack Campbell’s other series, Lost Fleet and Beyond the Frontier, and Lost Stars, Genesis Fleet series, you will love this too. I started reading Jack Campbell in 2015 when I was sent an ARC of one of the Leviathon, which was the final book in the Beyond the Frontier series. Of […]
So, The Hollows series was the very first Read-along I hosted in my early days of blogging at Yummy Men & KickAss Chicks. I chose it because I had heard so many great things about it but had never read the series. It was also 2014 and the year the “final” book was released, Witch with […]
He seeks revenge on the woman who betrayed him, but the battle over a fragmented empire and a powerful darkness rising to devour both living and dead force him to accept as ally the mysterious woman he hates. Returning to the Fallen Empire world for this particular story has been a high anticipation for me […]
I’ve really been enjoying the Fallen Empire series which feels more fantasy than fantasy romance. The world has the magic and creatures, swords and crossbows, cruel beatings and tortures, horses, the old kingdoms, and of course, the greedy rulers.

I enjoyed this sort of retelling of the story of Baba Yaga. The Witch and the Tsar has the Russian mythology feel like books by Naomi Novik (Spinning Silver), and Katherine Arden (The Winternight Trilogy) and oddly, some of the folklore is even in the Robin LeFever’s Fair Assassins series. Of course, this book has […]
Now we come to the final book in the Jane Yellowrock series. The style of Final Heir felt very different to me. As usual, the point of view is Jane’s with her thoughts and where she is and what she sees. Because she is now often in a more political role, directing things, and being […]
I chose the Mercy Thompson series for the Read-along in 2020 and it was an amazing reread for me. With complex plots and mysteries, along with many great characters it was helpful to read from the beginning, all the books close together rather than a year apart. In 2021, we had a book in the […]
