The Call of the Bone Ships is part 2 in R.J. Barker’s The Tide Child Trilogy, and, in my opinion, while it does represent an expansion on the first book in the series, The Bone Ships, and presents some similarities it is also very different in a lot of ways. That being said, I still found it to be a very enjoyable read.

Review: The Warded Man (Demon Cycle #1) by Peter V. Brett
The Warded Man, published as The Painted Man in the UK, is one of the best epic fantasy books that I have read in a long time. Like most of the things I read, for one reason or another I put off reading this one entirely too long. Because of my manic compulsion to buy everything I see that even remotely piques my interest, I bought this book several years ago and it has languished in my TBR ever since.

Review: Highfire by Eoin Colfer
I picked up Highfire due to what I had heard from other readers, which basically can be summed up as such: “It is about a lazy, oft-drunk dragon who has a crude sense of humor. Oh, plus murder or something.” That was about where my expectations were. I was looking forward to a funny, snarky, juvenile book about a dragon with some kind of plot snuck in there, and that is exactly what I got. I would say this book lived up to my expectations.

Review: Eight Cylinders by Jason Parent
Review: The Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey
Cloning is an oft-approach sci-fi concept, each version complete with it authors’ own flavor. It is also a concept that has evolved over the years as technology and society have changed. In The Echo Wife, Sarah Gailey’s unique take on cloning has combined with their pointed writing style to create a story that is both thought-provoking and cautionary.
