Review: Velocity Weapon (The Protectorate #1) by Megan O’Keefe

April 28, 2021 by Manny Henri Leave a Comment

Primes and Icarions—going on in the background. I loved it, and will read the next two books pronto.

Review: Dark One Volume 1 by Brandon Sanderson/Jackson Lanzing/Collin Kelly

April 23, 2021 by Manny Henri Leave a Comment

m a big fan of anything Brandon Sanderson is involved with, and typically I’m engaged, impressed and enjoy his books. But somehow Dark One Volume 1 couldn’t connect with me.

Review: The Shadow of The Gods (Bloodsworn Saga #1) by John Gwynne

of soil in front of her wooden built dwelling. She dug up little holes for laying vegetable seeds, but as she lost herself into the peaceful endeavor, a rat-sized butterfly landed on the soil—a few feet away from her. She glanced at the large multi-colored wings and appreciated its beauty. Abruptly, the butterfly shifted to expose its body and revealed a set of enormous claws and an odd opening filled with sharpened teeth. The creature flew directly at her neck and sunk its jaw into her jugular.

Review: Fugitive Telemetry (and previous 4 books) by Martha Wells

April 14, 2021 by Manny Henri Leave a Comment

n the end, I truly enjoyed Fugitive Telemetry and the previous four books, but not as science-fiction literature or its robot-driven narrative, but truly for its exploration on human nature and its reflection from the perspective of a rich-humanized robot.

Review: Wraithblade by S.M. Boyce

April 9, 2021 by Manny Henri Leave a Comment

Wraithblade, a sprawling epic, amazed me from beginning to end and left me wanting more of the story that involves an unlikely team of characters; Connor, Murdoch, Sophia and the rest of the supporting characters. It ramped up slowly where S.M. Boyce takes a generous amount of time introducing us to its world filled with kingdoms, beautiful fauna, political power struggles and its own magic system, and then goes into high gear with a palette full of action and a smorgasbord of twists and turns!

Review: Near The Bone by Christina Henry

March 21, 2021 by Manny Henri 2 Comments

Do you remember a time where you were sitting around a campfire and told creepy stories to scare each other? Well, Near The Bone is a story that would be worth telling before you send your troops to bed. It got the tropes of a Stephen king novel, about human beings at their worst or best, mixed with a chilling story involving a beast in the woods. “We came up here to do some research and now we’re in a horror movie with a monster and an unkillable redneck with a gun.”

Review: The Unbroken (Magic of the Lost #1) by C.L. Clark

didn’t. In fact, I was thoroughly surprised with this book. C.L. Clark drags you into a rich world filled with political intrigue and a slew of raw relationships in between opposing characters.

Review: Mistborn (Book 1) by Brandon Sanderson

March 11, 2021 by Manny Henri Leave a Comment

Reading Mistborn, formerly known as The Final Empire or book one of the Mistborn series, felt like arriving late at a party when everyone’s drunk—like I had missed out on something special! I bought the Era one trilogy a few years back and never got to it until now, and man was I missing out on the kool-aid. This book took all my expectations, put them in a blender with a high dose of sugar and hit frappe. I haven’t been that much engaged in a book since I read the Harry Potter series.
