Posted February 18, 2020 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 36 Comments

The nitty-gritty: An exciting, fast-paced fantasy debut that will leave readers clamoring for the next book. Wow, this was fun! I believe this is A.K. Larkwood’s debut novel, and I was very impressed. The Unspoken Name is set in a fantastical world where dying cities, sleeping gods, airships, magical portals and more set the stage […]

THE BARD’S BLADE by Brian D. Anderson – Review
Posted January 30, 2020 by Tammy in 5 stars, Reviews / 37 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A deceptively “gentle” epic fantasy tale with bite, The Bard’s Blade is surprisingly addictive and perfectly paced.

SABBATH by Nick Mamatas – Review
Posted November 25, 2019 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 27 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Sinners rejoice! Mamatas’ latest is a big, brash, bawdy tale of sin, violence and laugh-out-loud humor, complete with time travel, swords, angels and art galleries.  “I thought Jewish people didn’t believe in the afterlife,” said Jennifer. “I thought Russian Orthodox girls didn’t believe in fucking strangers, or experimenting with lesbianism and then breaking […]

The nitty-gritty: Full of strange magic, secrets and lies, a compelling mystery and some emotional soul searching, Magic For Liars was a surprise in more ways than one. Magic For Liars was not the book I was expecting it to be, and I finished reading it with the feeling that it was exactly the book […]

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 […]
