Devi is a mercenary whose life goal is to be a Devastator (an elite group that serves the king of Paradox). She signs up for a year of security work on The Glorious Foul because she'll get credit for 5 years and serve 1. However, all is now what it seems.I liked the writing and I thought the world i...
Ooh that ending, this is SF with a sprinkle of fantasy, reminded me of Marion Zimmer Bradley and some earlier SF writers. Devi Morris is a mercenary with plans and training and now she wants more training and to find it she joins The Glorious Fool, where she might be able to get herself ahead quicke...
Series: Paradox #1 I really wasn’t sure what to rate this (I still haven’t decided as I write these words). The author started off as a fantasy writer and it shows. I think the book might be geared more towards fantasy fans that don’t mind reading stories in space. I wasn’t expecting too much from...
Well after an interesting though confusing start, I ended up just feeling okay towards the first book in this trilogy. I don't have enough interest to read books #2 and #3 and I think that's primarily because the world building was not that great and the characters were not very well developed. But ...
I am the shit!When novels start like that I usually get a book turnoff and run for the hills. I chalk it down to too much badassery delivered to me in forms of cliché riddled PNR heroines that I can't seem to stop reading, that sometimes leave you feeling they just stepped off an assembly line somew...
Whoever it was who wrote a post about Rachel Bach's Fortune's Pawn, thank you. I nabbed the first book, immersed myself in it, had a delightful time, and then cursed the fact that you hadn't also included a warning to make sure the entire series was on hand before starting to read the first one due...
This is amazingly good. I read a little snip of it from an anthology. I finally received it from the library. I put it off for a while but now that I've read it, I'm wondering why I didn't read it earlier. Devi is a stubborn git. She will do whatever she wants to get what she wants. She also ca...
I first read this book as an ARC a few years back. Found out that a book club I'm picked it for this month's read. I will not be re-reading this book. Devi Morris isn't your average mercenary. She has plans. Big ones. And a ton of ambition. It's a combination that's going to get her killed one day...
I'm not particular happy about the ending. In fact I'm really pissed off about it - [spoiler] I loathe amnesia plots so much that I want to not read the series. [/spoiler] I've skimmed the reviews for the other books in the trilogy and I think I'm satisfied with that. What I read in this book was ve...
