Review: His Ragged Company by Rance D. Denton (The Testimonies of Elias Faust #1)

July 9, 2024 by Tom Bookbeard Leave a Comment

His Ragged Company gives us the chance to splatter and swear our way through a kooky western with all the obscene violence of a Tarantino flick. Seriously, what’s not to like about that?

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.
