Book Tour Review: We Break Immortals (The Advent Lumina Cycle #1) by Thomas Howard Riley

January 10, 2022 by Justin Leave a Comment

We Break Immortals is the first book I have reviewed for 2022 and it has set the bar extremely high! Riley displays some of the most impressive worldbuilding and character work that I have ever seen. The amount of worldbuilding that is just casually littered throughout the book is staggering, yet it feels like there’s so much more to learn. It’s truly a testament to Riley’s skill and it serves to make the world really feel lived in. It’s not just a backdrop for the story to take place, but an active participant in the telling.

Review: HELLMOUTH A Novella by Giles Kristian

January 9, 2022 by Paige Leave a Comment

I loved this! What a wonderfully chilling short story, that definitely has the potential to become a full length novel. Although that being said it works perfectly well as a novella too.

Review: The Spirit Rebellion (The Legend of Eli Monpress #2) by Rachel Aaron

January 5, 2022 by David S Leave a Comment

The Spirit Rebellion managed to bring what was great about book 1 back to the table and improve upon it in every way, adding important elements to the story that made the characters more compelling and increased my investment in the story.

Review: Jade War (The Green Bone Saga #2) by Fonda Lee

January 4, 2022 by Jared Besse Leave a Comment

Jade War by Fonda Lee increased everything I loved about the first book and made for a truly breathless read. While the first book was enjoyable, something about it was lacking for me. This sequel expelled any doubts and was a fantastic continuation of the story. (minor spoilers for the first book follow)

Book Tour: The Sword in the Street by C.M. Caplan

January 3, 2022 by Victoria Gross Leave a Comment

When I first dove into TSitS, I was immediately taken with Caplan’s use of language. He writes captivatingly, with vivid descriptions and intricate POVs that allow readers to truly know the characters in their own words. I’ve come across few other authors who are able to do that so spectacularly.

The Cruel Stars (The Cruel Stars #1) by John Birmingham

January 2, 2022 by Dan Smith Leave a Comment

Combat Intellects, mechs with humans written from a source code, old family dynasties, more advanced tech than you can throw a stick at, and that’s just in the first chapter. It’s a smorgasbord of everything that’s cool about modern science fiction; it’s bonkers in all the right ways. It would definitely suit fans of explosive space battles in series like the Expanse and the body-switching, souls uploaded into chips, and other weird tech of Altered Carbon.

Review: Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes

December 29, 2021 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

Dead Silence is author S.A. Barnes’ lates release (and the first under that name, though the author has a whole portfolio of titles – mostly YA – under the name Stacey Kade). I thought this was a really good read, and it is exactly as billed: it’s the Titanic in space but also murdery with a touch of reality TV.
