Review: The Martyr (The Covenant of Steel #2) by Anthony Ryan

May 20, 2022 by Dale Leave a Comment

As far as I’m concerned Anthony wrote what I would class as a perfect fantasy book and its an easy 10/10 for me.

Review: The Blood of Outcasts (The Bane Sword Trilogy #1)

March 30, 2022 by Tom Bookbeard Leave a Comment

There’s a lot to love about TBoO, especially its acronym, but it’s an incredibly bloody, gritty, ronin romp that’s well worth checking out.

Review: Vengewar (Wake the Dragon #2) by Kevin J. Anderson

February 15, 2022 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

Vengewar is the second release in Kevin J. Anderson’s Wake the Dragon series, a story for which I had high hopes coming in. If you read my review of book 1 (if you have not, you can do so HERE), you know that I was disappointed but ultimately decided the series had enough potential to continue with it. I am mostly happy about that decision, as I did enjoy book 2 more and the setup going into book 3 is very intriguing.

Review: Spine of the Dragon (Wake the Dragon #1) by Kevin J. Anderson

February 11, 2022 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

Spine of the Dragon is the first release in Kevin J. Anderson’s Wake the Dragon series. I was really excited going in to this book, as the synopsis mentions many of the aspects I love about fantasy novels: ancient gods, big battles, and dragons. Unfortunately, though, it missed the mark for me.

Review: Promise of Blood (Powder Mage #1) by Brian McClellan

January 17, 2022 by chilcottharry Leave a Comment

Brandon Sanderson once blurbed the Powder Mage trilogy, calling it “just plain awesome”… I can safely say I totally agree with him!

Review: The Pariah (The Covenant of Steel #1) by Anthony Ryan

December 11, 2021 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

The Pariah is the opening act in The Covenant of Steel series and what an opening it is! We follow Alwyn Scribe in first person, as he shares with the reader his tale through the benefit of hindsight. I’ve grown really fond of this type of narrator over the years because, especially if the attitude is right, it makes for some really fun reading, rife with asides and commentary that add a certain dimension to the story that, be it because of ominous foreshadowing or amusing snark, sass, or dry humor, regularly gives you a solid chuckle. The Pariah had all of that and more.
