I have said I am not a fan of time travel, but I love some scifi type series that have it so maybe that idea has to go. Child of Ashes is the second in the Seba Segal series. I would read these books in order. It is about nine years since the the first […]
Wow, what can I say? I am enjoying this series so much and if you love action-packed urban fantasy, you are missing out on a good one. In this installment, Tori, who has recently come into possession of a rare demon artifact, is working against time trying to figure out how she can use […]
The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). I bought the box set of Flashpoint series from Rachel Grant. Since then, I have gotten the first 2 books in the series for free. These are in the romantic suspense genre. I enjoy the African settings, some […]
Continuing with the Twentieth Legion as the Medicus, Ruso is stationed at Parva at Hadrian’s Wall in progress. It’s late fall and the time of Samhain for the locals. Ruso wants the peace of some work-related injuries to keep him busy for a change, but instead gets a wound-up local populace, a […]
A Rip Through Time series continues to delight me. There is very little time travel in them and none here. The main books come out each May, but often there is a short released around December, sometimes with a holiday theme. Even with about half the size of a full novel, Kelley Armstrong does not […]
Ruso’s back in the army slogging to his next post with the Twentieth Legion with his wife, Tilla, when a stop at a post along the way leads to a brutal and bizarre turn of events and an encounter with the Emperor Hadrian and his retinue. Ruth Downie’s series continues to draw me […]
The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). Last year I read a collection of freebies which are set in Australia. There were a few police procedurals from Fiona Tarr. Somehow I got two more of the Dawn Grave series free and so I am reviewing them […]
Crimson Oath was masterful and convinced my Oleg and Tatyana could be a couple, among other things. Obsidian Empire is the end of the trilogy; I would start at the beginning. The development of Tatyana from human to vampire, to a powerful woman in her own right is contrasted with Oleg who is very […]
Ruso and Tilla are on their way back to Brittain after their adventure with family and murder in Gaul. Married, but without his old job as medicus in the Roman Legion, Ruso grudgingly agrees to a job his old medicus pal, Valens, who’s gone into private practice has dug up for him- […]
As I progress through the historical mystery series set in the world of the Roman Empire, I was curious now that the series is moving from Roman Britain to Ruso’s family home in Gaul. Ruth Downie has an interesting blend of humor, historical detail, colorful characters and intriguing mystery plot all woven […]
