by Jaq D. Hawkins This one is what I call Old School Fantasy, but it's also Dark Fantasy in places. It kept coming to my attention and when a friend who said she didn't like it the first time she read it decided to read it again, that pushed me over the edge to give it a try. I enjoyed it. The p...
by Jaq D. Hawkins Although this is technically the second book in a series, it stands alone and could easily be read as the first book for those who like more action in their Fantasy instead of the exposition and world building that characterized the first book. It starts out with a young girl r...
All the books in this trilogy are supposed to be stand alone, but I think this one needs to be read with background information from at least one of the other two. It occurs a generation after Demoniac Dance and the children in that story have grown up, some even having children of their own. It's...

This has never existed as a book. It was placed on Goodreads to flush out the trolls who were one starring books just to game the system, downvoting authors from a list for the sake of pure nastiness. Someone was a big enough loser to transfer it here, where this kind of game playing shouldn't exi...
Coming out of an opium induced hypnotic allure can be enjoyable or catastrophic depending on the conditions around the dragon at the time. Air pirates, riding an airship, lighter than air - looking for the goddess Aide, in an opium dream - find it exhilarating in a strong wind. This book tells of an...
