KING OF THE ROAD by R.S. Belcher – Review
Posted December 29, 2018 by Tammy in 5 stars, Reviews / 42 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A complex and unputdownable story filled with fascinating elements and well drawn characters makes this another must read from R.S. Belcher. Oh Rod Belcher, you’ve done it again. If you love fantasy and horror and you haven’t yet checked out Belcher’s smorgasbord of backlist titles, then you are really missing out. R.S. Belcher […]

FIRE & HEIST by Sarah Beth Durst – Review

FIRE & HEIST by Sarah Beth Durst – Review
Posted December 16, 2018 by Tammy in 3 stars, Reviews / 24 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A fantasy with lots of potential that felt more “middle grade” than “young adult,” Fire & Heist had some fun moments but ultimately disappointed me. I had heard all sorts of good things about Sarah Beth Durst’s The Queens of Renthia series, and so I was eager to check out her latest, a young […]

VENGEFUL by V.E. Schwab – Review

VENGEFUL by V.E. Schwab – Review
Posted December 8, 2018 by Tammy in 5 stars, Reviews / 24 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A satisfyingly complex, multifaceted tale of revenge, Vengeful is a worthy sequel and is a 2018 book you cannot miss. It’s been five years since I read Vicious, the first book in Schwab’s ambitious super hero saga, and although it’s been a longer than normal time between releases, I can say without hesitation […]

DRAGONSHADOW by Elle Katharine White – Review

DRAGONSHADOW by Elle Katharine White – Review
Posted December 3, 2018 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 31 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Another winning story in the Heartstone series, I was once again enchanted by White’s lively storytelling and wonderful world-building elements. One of my favorite things about Heartstone, the first book in White’s Pride & Prejudice fantasy retelling, was the world building. I’m a big P&P fan, but those elements are not what won […]

#RRSciFiMonth: UNHOLY LAND by Lavie Tidhar – Review

#RRSciFiMonth: UNHOLY LAND by Lavie Tidhar – Review
Posted November 29, 2018 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 29 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Tidhar’s latest is a challenging but ultimately satisfying read that deals with histories, both real and imagined. Reading a Lavie Tidhar book is like being in a fever dream. Events, characters, places and impressions swirl around you, creating a sense of unease, or confusion, or sadness. Tidhar pieces the parts of his stories […]

BREACH by W.L Goodwater – Review

BREACH by W.L Goodwater – Review
Posted November 24, 2018 by Tammy in 3 1/2 stars, Reviews / 24 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A slow-paced beginning turns into thrilling excitement at the end, which makes up for some of the more tedious sections. I’ll admit that when I first saw the cover of Breach, I thought it was science fiction. Maybe that’s why I feel like I got off on the wrong foot with this book. […]

ABANDONED by W. Michael Gear – Review

ABANDONED by W. Michael Gear – Review
Posted November 15, 2018 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 29 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Welcome back to Donovan, where the human population is just as dangerous as the killer alien species on the planet. Abandoned is the sequel to Outpost, a book that completely surprised me when I read it earlier this year. And because of that, you should definitely read Outpost first. I love this series, […]
