Review: Bright Steel (Masters & Mages #3) by Miles Cameron

August 5, 2021 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Overall this series has been rife with full tilt action, character and magic badassery, camaraderie moments to die for, and plenty of soft, humorous, and quiet snippets between duos or trios that warm your chest. Cameron’s world has been one that is truly so rich and evocative, borrowing from a cultural setting that isn’t used often enough in fiction.

16 New Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror Books to Break Your TBR — August 2021

August 3, 2021 by Justin 4 Comments

Hello everyone and welcome to this month’s attempt at hawking a pile a books at you! You may be wondering why there are so many on this month’s list. First, thank you for noticing. Reading comprehension, ace. Second, there’s just so many great books releasing this month! Truly, it’s unbelievable how many there are and I’ll have you know that I had to leave a TON of great books off the list in order to pare it down to a (somewhat) reasonable level. This list is all killer, no filler. Take a look.

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

July 9, 2021 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

The Pariah is the first installment in Anthony Ryan’s latest series, The Covenant of Steel. This series is off to a really good start with tons of action, good writing flow, and a cast of characters that make story worth following.

Review: Nophek Gloss (The Graven #1) by Essa Hansen

June 30, 2021 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

Nophek Gloss is Essa Hansen’s debut and the first in the author’s The Graven series. I have seen some categorize this book as Space Opera, but I do not see the sweeping elements one normally finds in a book characterized as such. In my opinion, this is just good Science Fiction. The caveat to this statement is twofold: 1) I am not very good at labeling sub-genres, and 2) Sometimes with SciFi it is the second book in the series that really develops the epic scope that can broaden the horizons to push the series into Space Opera territory. So, I will reserve final judgement for now, but know that this is the context into which my review is framed.

Review: Catalyst Gate (The Protectorate #3) by Megan E. O’Keefe

June 8, 2021 by Traveling Cloak (Jason) Leave a Comment

Catalyst Gate is the third and final installment in Megan E. O’Keefe’s The Protectorate series. This is a highly-anticipated release for many, and that is especially true for fans of the space opera trilogy who are looking for the story to end with a bang. If you read no more of this review, know this: to say it went out with a bang would be an understatement.

Review: The Bone Shard Daughter (The Drowning Empire #1) by Andrea Stewart

June 6, 2021 by Tom Bookbeard Leave a Comment

There must be a bone shard somewhere inside me with the “read one more chapter” command etched onto it, as this story compelled me to read on right from the first few pages.
