if all the stars were books, the galaxy would still be smaller than my TBR list
I don't always read too many anthologies, but I do sometimes get the urge. They are nice palette cleansers, so to speak, being able to throw a nice story or two in between bigger reads. This one showcases some of the year's best sci-fi and fantasy fiction. Thanks to all of the authors, the editor,... Continue Reading →
I really enjoyed Sorcerous Rivalry, and so when this anthology came about with stories about Reshi's brothers and sisters, I couldn't help but grab a copy. It's been a sort of mission of mine to read bits of it between bigger novels. It's admittedly taken a long time though. Before they became known as the... Continue Reading →
When I found out that this novella existed, I nearly instantly preordered it, because yes please, this book. When it popped up on NetGalley (which I should really stop looking at so often, lol), I jumped on it, because why not?! So thanks to the author, as well as Macmillan-Tor/Forge via NetGalley for the review... Continue Reading →
This is a novelette... or rather... a novella? It's short, is what I'm saying here. It is only 100 pages long. It is a piece of short fiction involving 1 artist, 1 scientist, and 2 chess enthusiasts... and a strange woman. It sounded quite interesting, so when asked if I'd like to give it a...

Having really enjoyed the audiobook of Kingshold a few weeks back, when I was offered a copy of the in-between-books story anthology audiobook, I happily accepted. More Mareth please! Thanks to the author, as well as Tantor Media for the review copy! I am Mareth and I collect tales - tales that do not make... Continue Reading →
This little book came to my attention on Twitter one day when I saw its adorable cover, and so when it popped up on NetGalley one day, I couldn't help requesting it. I mean look at that cover. Just look!!! So, many thanks to the author, as well as Xpresso Book Tours via NetGalley for... Continue Reading →
Having really enjoyed The Djinn Falls in Love, I couldn't help but request this one as soon as I saw it on NetGalley! So thanks very much to the authors, and editors, and Solaris via NetGalley for the review copy! We live our lives in the daylight. Our stories take place under the sun: bright,... Continue Reading →
I've had this little gem on my kindle for a long while, but I figured while I was in the mood for some short stories in between longer books, I would slam down some golem-tacular shenanigans. They call the Malar Dorah unbreakable. Five centuries it stood unconquered until foul trickery cracked its gates. Now, it... Continue Reading →
I won this little gem of a novella in a giveaway some months ago, but I've not had the time to sit down and read it (yes, even keeping in mind that it only takes a couple of hours, lol). Well, finally had a bit of time to dive right in, and dive I did!... Continue Reading →
So, it actually took me longer to write and format this post than it did to read this short story. 😀 I really quite enjoy the realism of the Fionn series. It's still modern enough to understand, but it has a gritty could-actually-have-happened in a way realness to it that immerses me in each story.... Continue Reading →
