I really wanted to like Song of the Dragon by Tracy Hickman. I was a big fan of the Dragonlance series and I was excited to read it, but I was terribly disappointed. Drakis returns from the War of the Nineth Throne — the last of the great dwarven wars — […]
Every time I mentioned LE to my Mother-In-Law, she would start to talk about Nora Roberts’ (aka J.D. Robb) “In Death” series. Then I got jury duty and needed to take a paperback since they wouldn’t allow e-readers at the courthouse, so I borrowed the first of the series, Naked in […]
I couldn’t finish Queen Victoria: Demon Hunter. Actually I barely got into the story, but by the third fight scene I realized that I did not possess the constitution to finish this book. There were many staff at Kensington Palace, fulfilling many roles; a man who was employed to catch […]
As soon as I finished Grave Witch, I had to get my hands on Grave Dance. This sequel left me on the edge of my seat drooling over the yummy man candy and wanting more. Whoever said dead men tell no tales obviously never met Alex Craft. After a month spent […]

Mesmerism, Fairies, and Zombies, OH MY! Not usually what I think of with a Steampunk story, but somehow Mark Hodder blends all these things into his version of the Arthurian world. It’s done in such a way that it makes sense in the world that’s getting further and further away […]
Lady Law, a brilliant investigator or a beautiful, arrogant fraud? At first I thought that I couldn’t possibly cheer on such a pompous, arrogant woman, then I realized that she wasn’t going to be a protagonist. Once I realized this (after 3 chapters), I could finally finish The Mysterious Lady […]
I had just finished The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jack by Mark Hodder, I was looking for another cool steampunk story. Tor had Michelle Black’s The Second Glass of Absinthe listed in one of their newsletter and checking out the author’s Steampunky Blog, I was excited to start it. […]
