Two reviews for you today, one new book and one book that was published a few years ago. Both were good solid reads, although both were very slow moving at least for me. A Step Past Darkness is a mystery thriller that has a supernatural twist. Endless Water, Starless Sky is the ending of a duology based on the Romeo and Juliet tale.
A review for the new adult fantasy by Taran Matharu, Dragon Rider. A wonderful book with a fascinating magical system stemming from the bonding with animals. I enjoyed this and am looking forward to the next one.
A review for the YA fantasy A Door in the Dark by Scott Reintgen. This is a survival story that involves magic, has characters that you might not like by the end, and a very intricate magical system and world. The story will keep you guessing till the end about everyone’s secrets.
A review for the audiobook version of Illuminations by T. Kingfisher. This is a fascinating middle grade fantasy where art is magical.
A review for the novella WInter’s Gift, the most recent addition to the Rivers of London series. This novella takes place in the US and features FBI agent Kimberley Reynolds. It take us to the cold and snowy Great Lakes and an old legend that just might be real.
I listened to three audiobooks this month and I wanted to share them with you. So here are three shortish reviews for three very different books. I’ll Keep you Safe is a mystery thriller by the wonderful Peter May. The Spellman Files is a funny look at a very dysfunctional family. And finally, Iron Flame the second book in the Empyrean series.
