Review: The Book That Wouldn’t Burn (The Library Trilogy #1) by Mark Lawrence

April 30, 2023 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Lawrence does a truly incredible job with controlling the flow of information and details the reader is privy to, masterfully winding and weaving his plot and its various timelines, in such a manner that although the twists and reveals impact you fully, they do so in a way that makes perfect sense.

The cover for Fractal Noise by Christopher Paolini

To Sleep in a Sea of Stars is possibly my favourite book of all time, and I’ve been (im)patiently waiting for the next Fractalverse book ever since. I’m very happy to say that Fractal Noise lived up to my expectations and I’m so excited that it’s setting up for the next book in the series!

Review: Seeds of War by João F. Silva [The Smokesmiths #1]

April 30, 2023 by Tom Bookbeard Leave a Comment

Exactly the right amount of grit and smoke-fuelled fantasy that makes Seeds of Way feel like the start of a chest-burningly solid series.

Review: Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh

April 29, 2023 by Ashley Brennan Leave a Comment

Emily Tesh’s Greenhollow Duology ranks high on my list of favorite novellas of all time. Tesh is talented at evoking emotion and transporting the reader directly into the story with very few words. It’s safe to say that I was eager in my anticipation of Tesh’s debut novel, Some Desperate Glory.
