Full Speed to a Crash Landing is the first book of a planned trilogy, the Chaotic Orbits series. It follows our Heroine Ada as she narrowly escapes death after her ship loses all power and communication; there also seems to be a three foot hole in the side of it. Still from the beginning it […]
I have loved the Finder Chronicles series because I really enjoy Fergus. I love this science fiction, space opera with Fergus being sort of a detective / Equalizer / McGyver kind of guy with a real layer of humor. In Finder, Fergus “retrieves” a lost space ship and returns it to the rightful owner in […]
Floating Hotel is written with many different characters each having a section with their story. The beginning though was all Carl starting with a historical section then moving into present day. I enjoyed that and that format helped me get into the story, and understand the world building . The next section though had other […]
Aftermarket Afterlife is the thirteenth book in the Incryptid series and I’d like to say it was lucky number thirteen but I struggled to finish it. I will say I have read so many of Seanan McGuire’s books and short stories (somewhere in the realm of 60ish stories) and usually they are a great read for […]
The Cal Hooper series is a newer one by Tana French. Cal is an American, originally from North Carolina, but was a cop in Chicago for 25 years. He is divorced with one adult daughter. He comes to Ireland for a quiet place to live in retirement. Cal has just moved into his […]

Told from Tybalt’s PoV, we get to experience the events in the same timeline as book 17 from the other group of characters working to free those captured in Titania’s illusion. While the shift in PoV took a little time to become accustomed […]
Sleep No More is the seventeenth novel in the October Daye series and it is a trip. This is a well established series and you will need to read all the books in order to understand most of the storyline in this one. Titania is back with a vengeance and she might not be able […]
I remember how I really wanted to read this book and started it but had something come up and never got back to it. Somehow I also had the wrong impression of the age of the main character in the brief amount I read which was better once I actually read and knew more. That […]
A real life royal rivalry at the center of a fictionalized alt-history gay enemies to lovers romance in twelfth century Europe is an enticing draw to Solomon’s Crown. When I was offered the chance to read this one, I didn’t take long to think about it. Phillip of France and Richard the Lion-hearted of England […]
