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. Authors Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory collaborated in creating interesting and worth-reading characters as well as burying them with page...

28/9 - YAY!! I'm the first person I know to read this. That doesn't happen very often, usually I'm way behind the trend, reading the most popular book of the year five years after the fact. *Shrugs* There are a lot of books out there, sometimes it's hard to keep up with what's popular when it's popu...

Arc provided by Mcmillan-Tor/Forge I've just finished reading this story, and although it ended being better than what I expected, considering the first twenty percent of it _in which I seriously doubted I would be able to finish it _ this just had a lot of issues for me to give it a full three s...

However, they are a progressive household and teach their daughters as if they were men. Knowledge in what they might need to rule one day and the ability to go in...

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. A girl masquerading as a boy, a princess playing a common swordsman, seafaring adventures and pirates, sorcery and deadly beasts, plus a dash of romance – it should’ve been a fascinating book. Sadly, it wa...
