I listened to the first volume of this series in audio late last year and so then immediately hoped and hoped for a volume two audiobook- and LO AND BEHOLD, IT IS HERE! I'm going to keep this as spoiler-free for both books as I can. The Wyrde is dead and gone, its protection passed... Continue Reading →
RetroReview: Senlin Ascends & Arm of the Sphinx by Josiah Bancroft
It's been a while since I reviewed anything. I don't want you lot thinking I fell off the face of the earth (just kidding, pretty much everyone who reads this blog follows me on twitter where I have not been spending the last week retweeting pictures of puppies and have definitely not been live tweeting my Mass Effect...

Review: Kings of the Wyld by Nicholas Eames
I didn't even have to read the entire blurb for this one to know that this book was right up my alley. Much like Jonathan French's The Grey Bastards, any book filled with a group of dudes just fighting and cursing up a storm is something I'm actively interested in reading. This particular romp been...

Review: Forsaken by Eric S. Fomley
It's definitely time for some short story audiobook shenanigans! I was given a copy of this audiobook for free by the author to have a listen and to review it. What better time to do that then freaking immediately, amirite? It is a part of a longer series of short stories, but this part isn't... Continue Reading →
Review: Soulstone – Awakening by J.A. Cipriano
Nerd alert! If you weren't aware, I'm a bit of a gamer... Okay, more than a bit, lol. I met my husband on World of Warcraft, FFS. >.> So, I'm okay with a books about video games. The whole LitRPG genre is very popular in Japan, Korea, and Russia and it seems to be sort... Continue Reading →
Review: Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman
Last year, he announced that he had written a book of Norse Mythology, and the world rejoiced (well, I mean... I rejoiced. I assume others out there did too. I don't keep track of the *whole* world). And so the audiobook was preordered (because I will -always- listen to a Neil Gaiman book in audio... Continue Reading →
Review: On the Wheel by Timandra Whitecastle
Oh boy, this is going to be a doozy. Staying calm and not just melting down about this book is going to be difficult. I'll try to articulate. Promise. I also tried to make this as spoiler free for both books as I could, but this review talks a *lot* about the relationship between two... Continue Reading →
Review: Valley of Embers by Steven Kelliher
Have I ever mentioned how much I love Miyazaki movies? This is pertinent to this review, I promise. Princess Mononoke and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind are two of my favorite movies of all time, and at the very least, the first quarter or so of this book reads a little like an epic...
