So, this one was obviously an instant request from me. T. Kingfisher is one of my favorite authors, whether I'm reading the horror stuff or the White Rat stuff. So thanks to the author, as well as Tor via NetGalley for the review copy! When Alex Easton, a retired soldier, receives word that their childhood... Continue Reading →
Review: The Free Bastards by Jonathan French
As if I was going to say no to a review copy of the last book in the Lot Lands series, amirite? 😀 Thanks to the author, as well as Del Rey via NetGalley for the review copy! The Hisparthan armies on the horizon are mighty, bolstered by divine champions, dread sorcerers, and gunpowder. It’s... Continue Reading →
Review: We Cry for Blood by Devin Madson
I've been looking forward to the next volume in this series since I read the last, so when I had the opportunity to read a NetGalley of this one, I jumped all over it. So, many thanks to the author, as well as Orbit via NetGalley for the review copy! Ambition and schemes have left... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Review: Red in Tooth and Claw by Ryan Howse
More SPFBO Shenanigans from Team Weatherdrifter! Getting closer and closer to the end of my batch! Soon, I'll just need to read Esme's semifinalists (because we all know she'll have mine read before I even announce all of them) and then it'll be that time again! A brutal wilderness. Hungry, plague-ridden animals. A winter so... Continue Reading →
Review: The Broken God by Gareth Hanrahan
I am absolutely loving this series, and so when the third (not final!) book in it appeared on NetGalley I jumped on the chance to read it! So many thanks to the author, as well as Orbit for the review copy! Enter a city of dragons and darkness. The Godswar has come to Guerdon, dividing... Continue Reading →
Review: The Half Killed by Quenby Olson
I've had this book on my shelf for an embarrassingly long time (like... I winced when I went to amazon to link the book and it reminded me when I purchased it...), but it just never made its way into my (admittedly eclectic and oftentimes spur-of-the-moment) circulation until recently. No time like the present, as... Continue Reading →
Review: The Nine by Tracy Townsend
Pyr was nice enough to send me this book and its sequel about an age and a half ago and I then promptly fell into a bout of the mood reads and it bounced off a couple times. Finally, the mood for this hit me! The audiobook mood, as it were. ^_^ But, all the... Continue Reading →
Review: Twilight of the Gods by Scott Oden
I really quite enjoyed A Gathering of Ravens, and so when this popped up on NetGalley, I couldn't pass up requesting it. So, many thanks to the author, as well as St. Martin's Press via NetGalley for the review copy! It is the year of Our Lord 1218 and in the land of the Raven-Geats,... Continue Reading →
Review: The Shadow Saint by Gareth Hanrahan
I really enjoyed The Gutter Prayer earlier this year, so it only makes sense that once I saw an opportunity to read the sequel, I was all the way on board. So thanks very much to the author, as well as Orbit via NetGalley for the review copy. Thieves, dangerous magic, and a weapon built... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Finalist Review: Never Die by Rob J. Hayes
And now it's down to the finalists! What better way to start out the finals round than with a book that is more or less a martial arts movie in literary form, amirite? Start things off with a real bang, so to speak! Ein is on a mission from God. A God of Death. Time... Continue Reading →
