I have fallen back into my own trap. After making some headway into my 2021 TBR, I have fallen behind again. However, this is more of a reflection on how busy (and lazy) I have been and not on this monster from KS Villoso – one of my favourite reads of recent years. In fact, I enjoyed this so much […]
The Dragon Gate by Randy Ellefson
Today is a big day for me. Today, I finally get through all my 2020 reviews. I’m writing this on May 9th 2022. Yes, I am that slow. To celebrate, I must first announce that I received a free copy from the author in return for an honest review. Despite what it says on my Twitter profile, all my opinions […]
Legacy of Bones by Kirk Dougal
This was recommended to me by some fellow reviewers so, having signed up for a Kindle Unlimited trial, I jumped at the chance to check it out. I even went so far as to leapfrog my epic review backlog to put the word out there… So, what’s it all about? Gera, now qualified as a blacksmith, decides to leave his […]
Ascendant by Michael R Miller
Post #2 of Self-Published Author Appreciation Week belongs to Michael R Miller and his book Ascendant. I’ve been reading self-published books for maybe five years, and I feel like MRM has been around forever. This isn’t the first book of his that I have read (some may argue otherwise), but he kindly gave me an audio copy of his Dragon’s […]
The Dragon’s Blade Trilogy by Michael R Miller
I received a free audio copy from the author in exchange for an honest review. This isn’t a single book review, but a trilogy review, so it may look a little different to the normal one. Darnuir, Prince of Dragons, is reborn twenty years after his arrogance causes a split among the races of his land. The Dragons (not the […]
Black City Saint by Richard A Knaak
I received a free copy of the audiobook from the narrator in exchange for an honest review. You know the way there are really prolific authors who you’ve always wanted to read, and for whatever reason, you never get around to? Well, I can scratch Richard A Knaak off that list. The ridiculously prolific writer, who has written in (amongst […]
The Rage of Dragons, by Evan Winter
This book was busy making a name for itself in 2019, so when it popped up in my library, I decided to jump in and see what all the fuss was about. This “African” (the diversity of cultures in that continent make this a broad statement) based fantasy revolves around Tau, a young lower class man, who embarks on a […]
The Bone Ships by RJ Barker
I received a free copy from NetGalley in return for an honest review. This in no way impacts my opinions. I have to be honest, I’ve never read anything by RJ Barker before, despite his presence on my TBF. As a result, I didn’t know quite what to expect. I’d heard good stuff, but we all fell into that trap […]
Blood of an Exile, by Brian Naslund
I received a free copy from NetGalley in return for an honest review. This in no way impacts my opinions. Silas Bershad is an exile, his land taken from him and he is cast adrift as a dragonslayer, a career with a short shelf-life. Bershad proves to be remarkably capable,and 14 years and 65 dragons later, he’s still kicking around. […]
Review – The Written by Ben Galley
Farden is one of the written, a mage with his book of magic etched into his skin. Despite being spurned by almost everybody, Farden spends his days protecting those who fear him. However, when a dangerous spell book is stolen, Farden gets sent to face an old enemy of his people looking for help. Can he obtain the help his […]
