Review: The Magician’s Daughter by H.G. Parry

March 1, 2023 by Cassidee Lanstra Leave a Comment

Cozy, atmospheric fantasy set in a historical setting. The kind of book that makes you feel as if magic is real.

Review: A Crack in the World by James F. Mordechai

February 24, 2023 by Paige Leave a Comment

A Crack in the World is fast-paced action from page one and at no point does Mordechai let the pace slow. This is 300+ pages of plot and I was totally absorbed the whole time. You’re thrown into the action with the first few chapters bouncing between ’12 hours’ and ‘one month’ earlier, and that really reels you in because you get to see where the story is going, but not how you’re going to get there. Plus you get a great idea of how weird things will become..

Review: Godkiller by Hannah Kaner

February 21, 2023 by Paige Leave a Comment

I completely and utterly fell in love with Godkiller. I should have known, really, considering as it’s a book about a world inhabited by hundreds of gods, a god-war and a main character who hunts them down for work. Some of my favourite things to read about and reading Godkiller reminded me that I really need to dig into more books with this kind of subject as the plot!
