Thanks to Alex and the rest of the team at Pen & Sword for providing me a paperback copy of this book that I freely chose to review. I am a big fan of Pen & Sword books and I have learned a lot on a variety of subjects thanks to their great selection, but I must admit to having a soft spot for socia...
"The Outstretched Shadow" is a mixture of excellent plot and mind-numbing exposition that is makes for a maddening read for anyone making it through the book.

28/9 - YAY!! I'm the first person I know to read this.

4 starsI really enjoyed this, despite some pacing issues. I liked the protagonists, the bursts of action, and the sweet romance. I feel like I really got to know Clarice, and I thought she was brave, strong, and resourceful; just the person to have on an adventure like this. There should be a lot...

I received this Kindle ARC through NetGalley. This novel promised much more than it delivered.

Sadly, it wa...
