An excellent debut by Genoveva Dimova, Foul Days, is an action packed story full of monsters and characters with a lot of heart. It is dark yet the characters are full of warmth and there is humor throughout that keeps the darkness from overwhelming the story. There is also a light romance that I am rooting for in the next book.
A review for the Gentleman Bastards series by Scott Lynch. A riveting high fantasy series with amazing world building and complex characters that you will love. I listened to the audiobooks for all three books and was enthralled by Michael Page’s narration. This series has everything you could want in a high fantasy series and more.
Three short reviews for some wonderful books released in 2023. Dark Water Daughter is a wonderful swashbuckling fantasy adventure with an immersive world that will leave you wanting more. Shadow Baron is the sequel to an underloved series that has great world building and characters that you can root for. And finally Upon a Frosted Star is a magical retelling of Swan Lake that is as tragic as it is beautiful
A review for the audiobook version of Sword Catcher by Cassandra Clare. A thrilling high stakes epic fantasy with wonderful characters and a twisty plot. The audiobook is fantastic and well done and one I highly recommend.
