Review: Lords of Uncreation (Book #3 of The Final Architecture Trilogy) by Adrian Tchaikovsky

May 3, 2023 by Frasier Armitage Leave a Comment

Synopsis  Idris Telemmier has uncovered a secret that changes everything — the Architects’ greatest weakness. A shadowy Cartel scrambles to turn his discovery into a weapon against these alien destroyers of worlds. But between them and victory stands self-interest.

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

May 2, 2023 by DustJacketFullofMonsters Leave a Comment

Synopsis All books, no matter their binding, will fall to dust. The stories they carry may last longer. They might outlive the paper, the library, even the language in which they were first written. But the greatest story can reach the stars . . Evar has lived his whole life trapped within a vast library, […]

Review: The Thirteenth Hour (The Cruel Gods #1) by Trudie Skies

May 1, 2023 by Craigbookwyrm Leave a Comment

If you are looking for something different from your usual fantasy reading, then this is my recommendation. The Thirteenth Hour is a brilliant debut that left me feeling like I’d watched a well produced TV series. It is no surprise it was a SPFBO finalist.

Review: The Book That Wouldn’t Burn (The Library Trilogy, #1)

April 30, 2023 by Mada Leave a Comment

A boy has lived his whole life trapped within a vast library, older than empires and larger than cities. A girl has spent hers in a tiny settlement out on the Dust where nightmares stalk and no one goes. The world has never even noticed them. That’s about to change. Their stories spiral around each […]

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.

Review: Fractal Noise by Christopher Paolini (Fractalverse #0.5)

April 30, 2023 by Paige 1 Comment

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!

In conclusion, if you love constant action, elements of horror all wrapped up in well-defined science fiction details, then go read David Wellington’s Paradise 1.

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.
