I listened to this audiobook free on Audible as their promotion during the Corona Virus. It was on my wish list for some time, so I was more than happy to listen as I worked on the computer. It kept taking my attention away from whatever I was doing. Getting sucked into this story about Tea, this gi...
I had really high hopes for this one. The description sounded great and I previously read and really enjoyed The Girl From the Well books by Chupeco. I wish I could say I enjoyed Wicked As You Wish but it just never really grabbed me and if I'm being completely honest it ended up feeling like a chor...
This was a creepy novel with a main character that's a ghost that takes revenge on people who kill children. Unfortunately it devolved into a bunch of rituals but overall it wasn't bad. It did rely on some improbable happenings (Tarq and the smiling man) and a completely incompetent police infrastru...
I’m finding it really hard to write this review, because although I really enjoyed The Heart Forger, I can’t tell you specifically why. I liked that there was heaps of action on the present tense this time around, as opposed to just dropping titbits about the past tense story to keep our interest....
I really knew nothing about this book before getting into it. I’d only read the blurb, which although it had interested me because HELLO NECROMANCY (I hate zombies though, I know right?) and I hadn’t read any reviews, so I didn’t know: That it was framed from a bard’s point of view. That it was sol...
Scary, dark, sometimes sad, with fabulous narration. It was even better than the first one for me. I loved the visit to the Japanese suicide forest. The history of the ghosts was so dark, I loved it. It hit my wicked dark loving spot perfectly.
4.5 Japanese ancient myths & horror blend vey well in this modern tale. I am so happy to have found tis author and this series. The characters fit their rolls, they had believable reactions, it was easy to care about them and nobody was TSTL. Ding Ding winner. I already ordered box 2 in the series.
I am where dead children go. - first sentence Murdered deads live in storms without season, in time without flux. We do not go because people do not let us go. - Chapter 1 Okiku is a spirit who was murdered hundreds of years ago. She takes vengeance on child killers and releases the souls of th...
It is so hard to say I wasn't at least slightly disappointed in this book. And who knows, maybe that is my own fault. This premise had such sweet sweet promise. My expectations were high. And I have read previous books by Rin Chupeco before and really enjoyed them. I wouldn't go as far as to say I d...
This was excellent! A wonderful fantasy author, with the added bonus of a very fresh Asian-inspired fantasy setting. I'm not actually sure how much was fabricated and how much was inspired by various real-world cultures... I recognized elements from Japanese culture in the geisha-house-like system a...
