The Outworlder was a wonderful blend of science fiction and fantasy.
The Spawn of Spiracy (A Disaster of Dokojin #2) by Jesse Nolan Bailey
The Spawn of Spiracy is every bit the successor to the Jealousy of Jalice; the world expands in every direction, the world bigger, the characters familiar. Without needing to really mention it, Nolan Bailey is a great writer, the pages atmospheric, drawing me in once more. The world is rich, and there’s plenty new problems for our cast: the Sachem is banished, but the danger not gone. And there’s an experimental Dokojin that might be the answer. Though, somehow, Spiracy is loose.
Book Tour: The Outworlder by Natalie J. Holden
Hello and welcome to my stop on the Escapist Book Tours book tour of The Outworlder by Natalie J. Holden! I am so glad to be kicking off the tour and I thought what better way to introduce the book than by sharing an excerpt from between the pages themselves?
Review: The Jealousy of Jalice (A Disaster of Dokojin #1) by Jesse Nolan Bailey
The Jealousy of Jalice has been on my TBR for a long time now. Even before it was updated with the snazzy new cover that you see on the print edition now, I was drawn to the decidedly darker, original, cover. The promise made by the original cover, more so than the updated one, is that of a dark and terrifying story. I am happy to say that it delivered on that promise and then some!
Review: The Hunger of the Gods by John Gwynne
Hunger of the Gods is the second book in the epic Bloodsworn trilogy by John Gwynne and is another amazing entry in the series. When I first read Shadow of the Gods, I was blown away and the well written characters and breathtaking action. Hunger of the Gods delivers more of the same great cast (including a new highlight) but suffers from a few pacing issues and middle book syndrome. (some spoilers for the first book follow)
The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi
The Kaiju Reservation Society is wondrous, an adventure in a new world – like Godzilla movies? Read about the ‘real’ thing. This book scratches the Kaiju movie itch for me, I’ve been a huge fan for years, and if you like them, you’ll want to read this.

Reread Thread: A Chorus of Dragons (Books #1-4) by Jenn Lyons
Hey, book friends! As big as our TBRs are and with our busy schedules, it is often difficult to reread books and series – something I have vowed to do more of in 2022.
With that in mind, and as one of my favorite series being completed this year, I decided it was the perfect time for a reread of Jenn Lyons’ A Chorus of Dragons series. The final book, The Discord of Gods, releases in April, and the seri

Book Tour/Review: The Jealousy of Jalice (A disaster of Dokojin #1) by Jesse Nolan
Vivid in its description, bloody and brutal in its execution, the Jealousy of Jalice is a horror of a book that begs you read on. Jesse manages to paint a picture of a complex world without the first few pages, adding to that conflict which spans backwards by years and all while pushing the story forward: Jalice has been kidnapped. But don’t f*** with Jalice.
