Book Review: Nyxia

A swift, fun read with plenty of twists and surprises, cunning strategic moves, and touching moments between characters.

Book Review: The Cruel Prince

I recommend this book. I just do. But it's especially appropriate for lovers of faerie fantasy, political intrigue, brutal, bloody struggles, and powerful women.

Book Review: Scythe

I recommend Scythe for readers who enjoy thoughtful philosophical exploration, grim reaper aesthetic, subtle dystopia, and clever plot twists.

Book Review: Sabriel

I recommend Sabriel for readers who like somewhat dark things with a bright twist and who like intelligent, capable female characters.

Book Review: The Traitor’s Game

I would recommend The Traitor's Game for readers who like quick romances, enemies-to-lovers paradigms, and spy thrillers in a fantasy setting.

Book Review: The Language of Thorns

Fairy tales have a tradition of presenting moral conclusions and this collection sticks to that tradition, but with a modern spin.

Book Review: Tempests and Slaughter

This narrative is a wide-eyed, stark look at how tyrants rise to power in the real world.

Book Review: Leviathan Wakes

I can go along reading it for quite some time before it’ll do something to irritate me.

Book Review: Artemis

The story of Artemis contains a large number of items from the list of things I look for in fiction, as well as some surprises.

Book Review: Interworld

Joey Harker not only makes serious, life-costing mistakes, but suffers the consequences of his actions. So much so that at one point in the story, he winds up even further back than square one.
