Review of The Waking Fire by Anthony Ryan
Is it possible for me not to love anything Anthony Ryan puts to paper? I’m going to go out on a pretty damn sturdy limb and say no. I got […]
Review of The Devil You Know by Mike Carey
I took a strong dislike to him right then to save time and effort later. …Well, sometimes cruelty is kindness in disguise. Sometimes pain is the best teacher. Sometimes it […]
Review of The Aeronaut’s Windlass by Jim Butcher

Indie Challenge 7 – Vengeance of Segennya by Tiffany Cherney

Indie Challenge 4 – Soul Catcher by E.L. Todd
Soul Catcher by E.L. Todd 3 out of 5 Stars Hmmm…so I’m writing this review before I decide the number of stars to give it because, honestly, I just don’t […]
Indie Challenge 3 – I, Zombie by Jo Michaels
What an enjoyable read. I sat down this morning thinking to give this a few chapters before I started on my list of things to do today. Before I knew […]
Indie Challenge 2 – Gods of Sand and Stone by W. Shuler
Well, I hate to say it, but this fell short for me. I love characters who have experienced something horrible, who’ve been to the bottom, who have an internal struggle […]
