Review: For The Throne (Wilderwood #2) by Hannah Whitten

June 22, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

For The Throne really is everything you wish for in a sequel/series conclusion, in that it wraps up all the threads in a satisfying manner that isn’t necessarily what you’d expect, it honors already established characters while also giving the right amount of space to the ones who are now the main focus and, it does all that by improving on all that worked well before to make it even better.

Review: Perception Check (The Mages of Velmyra Saga #1) by Astrid Knight

June 15, 2022 by Tom Bookbeard 1 Comment

Perception Check is a warm-hearted adventure that certainly feels like the homage to tabletop gaming it is trying to be. The characters all resonate, the world grows and grows with the help of a strong magic system and lore. It’s an accomplished debut from Knight and a saga I hope will be a critical success.

Review: Glass Rhapsody (Songs of Sefate #3) by Sarah Chorn

June 12, 2022 by Paige Leave a Comment

Sarah’s writing is stunning, it’s beautiful and poetic and she manages to convey such painful, heart-wrenching moments with such tenderness and emotion. I don’t think I’ve ever come across a writer who can do quite what she does with words. The emotion she can convey with her writing is unmatched and I’m never quite sure if I’m mourning or floating when I read her works. My heart is always both so full and so empty.

Review: King of Battle and Blood (Adrian X Isolde #1) by Scarlett St. Clair

June 12, 2022 by Eleni A.E. 1 Comment

St. Clair’s story fits within a few great romance tropes, such as marriage of convenience and enemies to lovers, but it also employs some of my favorite tropes across any genre, for instance wrong/fake history being revealed for what it was, misconceptions being broken down, and an epic revenge story revealed gradually with great effect.

Review: Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree

June 6, 2022 by Tom Bookbeard 3 Comments

This book is, at the end of it all, like a written relaxing afternoon in a coffee shop. It’s charming and it’s fun. There’s a real time and a place for Legends and Lattes and I’m really glad I found it.

Review: The Stardust Thief (The Sandsea Trilogy #1) by Chelsea Abdullah

June 3, 2022 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

The Stardust Thief is author Chelsea Abdullah’s debut novel and the first in the author’s series The Sandsea Trilogy. There are so many aspects of the book that make it a great read, but in the end it comes down to phenomenal storytelling for me.
