This is the first of my SPFBO books, and I'm delightfully thrilled to say that it was pretty great, marking this as a good start for me. I'm also very tired. More on that later. 😀 Born to privilege. Trained for command. Destined for danger. After a lifetime of training, seventeen-year-old Princess Nile Greysik, a... Continue Reading →

Review: The Dragon Hunter and the Mage by V.R. Cardoso
I'd heard a little bit about this book before I got started on it. So, when I was offered a copy of it, I gladly accepted. I received a free copy of the audiobook from the author, and in exchange, this is my honest review. Magic can make you invincible, if it doesn’t get you... Continue Reading →
Review: A Star-Reckoner’s Lot by Darrell Drake
Guys, I've finally reached the point in my TBR where I can branch out into books that I have been meaning to read forever. I made it! This book has been on the TBR for at least a year, so I'm glad I could finally get there. Ashtadukht is a star-reckoner. The worst there's ever... Continue Reading →
Review: Mestlven by Jesse Teller
This has been on my review requests pile for an age, but I've put it off because... uh, well the Perilisc books, if you're unfamiliar, are fairly dark. Like... seriously horrorish dark. And I was not in a good place for really-really-dark until... quarter past 2 days ago >.>; So here we are! I was... Continue Reading →
Review: The Eagle’s Flight by Daniel E. Olesen
The TBR of Babel is getting legitimately smaller, guys, and this is so, so exciting! XD Peace in the Seven Realms of Adalmearc is only as strong as those who rule them. With the death of the high king and his heir too young to assume the throne, political intrigues fill the landscape as the... Continue Reading →
Review: The Vale: Behind the Vale by Brian D. Anderson
This book was one that I had seen the cover of in various facebook groups in which I am a member, and it looked intriguing, so I added it to the TBR of Babel. I wasn't expecting to be offered a review copy of it, but then again, I'm never really expecting review copies of... Continue Reading →
Review: Nice Dragons Finish Last by Rachel Aaron
I got this audiobook on an audible daily deal sale months ago but had just never gotten to it. I moved it up to the top of the TBR of Babel based on some twitter/reddit hype. Oh, the hype hit me. I got hyped. In the face! Yeah, well within 4 hours of starting it... Continue Reading →
Review: Servant of Rage by A.Z. Anthony
When offered a copy of this novel I really couldn't resist. I've really enjoyed this author's short stories, and this one sounded all kinds of interesting, with the whole Mongolian berzerker vibe. So, I got a free copy of this novel, and in exchange, here is my honest review of it. 🙂 To kill an... Continue Reading →
Review: Where Loyalties Lie by Rob J. Hayes
This was actually one of those books that I've had on my TBR for quite a long while, but never quite found the time for between review requests and my looming TBR structure. Well, twitter was all twoodling about how many fucks were in this book comparatively to the rest of this year's SPFBO finalists... Continue Reading →
