These two short stories are the first pieces I have read written by this author, and if the full series is even half as good as this, then I am gonna devour it! Each of these stories was vibrant and full of life and detail, they both painted beautiful images in my head and left me wanting more! As...

Once upon a time, when I was a little girl, in the dark days pre-Buffy, it was hard to find a female action hero. And yes, little girls need them, and teens, and even young women. So when the first Sword and Sorceress was published, I immediately grabbed it, and it was love at first sight of the cov...

Fantasy is not my favorite genre (I usually prefer urban in my fantasy) but this was still an engrossing tale that swept me into it's pages.It's also a 'safe' YA book that...

If I loved the first two books in this amazing series, let me tell you that I adored The Stone Of Darkness. I feel like I can't actually describe how much I loved this book.I loved how we get more subplots at the same time. There aren't too many though and they don't take up much time, but they do k...

The Iron Maiden by Resa NelsonThis book is part 2 of the Dragonslayers Sword. I found this novel a lot easier to read and felt like the words flowed easier for some reason. And it could be that I understood the world Astrid lived in which made things easier for myself to understand. You should not...

Dragonslayer's Sword by Resa NelsonThe Dragonslayer is a unique novel, Resa writing is fantastic I was drawn into this world and couldn’t believe I just about passed it up.
