by Joe King, Mark Gelineau The prologue to this one has some intense action and is not to be missed, but a time jump to chapter one threw me a little because characters who had just met in the prologue were suddenly old friends. It's a short, well written Fantasy novella of the Sword & Sorcery s...
There is a part in the middle that took place in the towers of the keep that I was either on the verge of sleep and didnt take in all the info or it wasnt explained as well as it is should've been. I'm confused about how that scene played out. I could reread it which would be obvious choice as it pr...
Okay I'm hooked I need more of this frightening world with sinister evil beings called Ruins. The thing with fantasy is that there is usually a well drawn line between Good vs Evil/Heroes vs Monsters which sometimes gets a little tiresome and flat as the Evil is sooooo evil and the good is soooo g...
This book continues where part 1 left of, but it also fits in with the bigger universe of An Echo of The Ascended, which was supposed to become a series of series that were slowly working to come together. Unfortunately, I've never since heard anything about it, and this makes me scared that the sto...
It's that time of the month again! Not the one which involves Ibuprofen and men having to go down to the old pub instead, but that time where Cindy and I are teaming up again for a double review!*What were your thoughts/expectations before reading this book?Cindy: Hm.. I try not to do a lot of think...
After the first round of The Echoes of the Ascended, Best Left in the Shadows was my favorite of the four storylines. Therefore I was eagerly awaiting Civil Blood because I was really looking forward to continuing the story of Alys and Dax. I was not disappointed! This proved to be a very interest...
I think I might have mentioned before that I'm enjoying this monthly series that consists of four series set in the same universe but which feature different genres and people. Skinshaper is the second book after Rend the Dark and it continues to be a great story. Ferran and co encounter an abando...
Rend the Dark starts off with a slightly strange prologue—and then launches into a rich, well-done tale of fantasy and horror. The magic is unique, the evil the characters face is unusual (at least in my reading experience!), and the world-building is tidily woven into the meat of the story. The cha...
I received a free copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This was a very disappointing read for me. At 78 pages long there simply wasn't enough time to build up any excitement, do any world building, or even explain what was going on. I know they were fighting evil cr...
All four storylines in The Echoes of the Ascended have been introduced and now it is time for the second round of stories, of which Broken Banners is the first. As I overall really liked the first four novellas, I was looking forward to the new batch. Elinor returns and finds a field full of slaug...
