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.
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 of the upcoming second book in the Marty Hench series, the bezzle, by Cory Doctorow. A scathing study of policies and politics in the early 2000’s that will make you think even while it make you mad.
A review for the first book in a new series by Robert Jackson Bennett, The Tainted Cup, coming out in early February. This engaging mystery is set in an amazing world unlike anything I have read before with likable characters and a series of murders that uncovers a scheme that encompasses the whole Empire.
I have been catching up on some of the books that I wanted to read in 2023 but didn’t get around to for various reasons. Last week I managed to get two of them done, The Seven Year Slip by Ashley poston and The Witchwood Knot by Olivia Atwater. These are two very different stories, but both have fantasy elements. I liked both of them, but was a bit surprised that I didn’t fall in love with either of them.
