The Fat Cat by Edie Ramer

20 November 2011 Casey 1

The Halloween themed anthology Entangled contains novellas by authors I know and love, and by authors I have yet to try. Edie Ramer was one of those new -to-me authors, but after reading The Fat Cat, Ramer’s contribution to the anthology, she has become one of those authors that I love. In a […]

House Name by Michelle West

19 November 2011 Nikki R 1

I was digging through my big box of books to review and saw House Name by Michelle West, which is the third book in The House War series.  I know you aren’t supposed to judge a book by its cover but this cover is kinda cool and it’s why I chose […]

The Griffin’s Flight by K.J. Taylor

8 November 2011 Nikki R 0

I love mythology, I love history, but The Griffin’s Flight by K.J. Taylor kicked my butt and took me weeks to read.  It really was a love/hate situation.  I told Jackie, it’s like watching Dancing with Wolves, the movie was good but good gravy it was long and all of […]

The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa

10 October 2011 Casey 1

I have loved Ash since the very first time Meghan laid eyes on him. So it’s no surprise that I found his book, The Iron Knight, to be sheer perfection.  My name—my True Name—is Ashallayn’darkmyr Tallyn. I am the last remaining son of Mab, Queen of the Unseelie Court. And I […]

The Dragon Book (Anthology)

22 September 2011 Casey 2

Dragon lovers rejoice! The Dragon Book is full of amazing, unique tales about, you guessed it, dragons. Whether portrayed as fire-breathing reptilian beasts at war with humanity or as noble creatures capable of speech and mystically bonded to the warriors who ride them, dragons have been found in nearly every […]

Mistwood by Leah Cypess

20 September 2011 Casey 1

I’d been meaning to read Mistwood by Leah Cypess for about a year now, but kept putting it off. When I finally got around to reading it, I literally devoured it in one day. Isabel remembers nothing. Nothing before the prince rode into her forest to take her back to […]

The Vision by C. L. Talmadge

13 September 2011 Casey 1

If nothing else, The Vision, the second novel in CL Talmadge’s Green Stone of Healing series, was an interesting story. That being said, there really wasn’t anything that I liked about it. I would post the blurb to the story – except it basically outlines the entire story, even giving […]

The Dark Griffin by K.J. Taylor

8 September 2011 Nikki R 0

When I read the synopsis for The Dark Griffin, I have to admit, I wasn’t all that excited.  I’m a history nut, and so I’m also very interested in mythology, but most of the time mythology in fiction, for me anyway, ends up being a big mess.  However, while I […]

Superman: Earth One

6 September 2011 Jesse 0

Continuity has been a sore spot in the comic world where parallel universes, what-ifs, and plain sloppy writing can destroy a character’s back story. Attempts have been made in the past to simplify the DC universe (Crisis on Infinite Earths, for example), but that only serves to muddy the water. […]

Heroes Return by Moira Moore

30 August 2011 Casey 3

Heroes Return by Moira J. Moore was one of those books that just grabbed me on the first sentence and never let go. Even after I finished it, I was stuck thinking about the characters and what adventures they’ll face next. The Emperor has personally selected Shield Lee Mallorough and Source […]
