Of Blood and Honey
by Stina Leicht

Of Blood and Honey is perhaps the most literary urban fantasy book I’ve read in recent memory. Don't let the "fey and the fallen" subtitle fool you, either. There's a lot of grit here and characters who may surprise you if you let them.

Blood Engines
by Tim Pratt

Pratt goes to great length to tell us how much of a bad ass Mason is, yet we never see that reflected in the unfolding story. It's for that reason that I'm reluctant to go ahead with this series.

Popular Reviews
  • The Winter of the Witch by Katherine Arden (523 views)

    It's never easy saying goodbye to such engaging characters, but I was left with a satisfying conclusion and the fulfillment of many character arcs so I'm happy.

  • Kings of the Wyld by Nicholas Eames (521 views)

    Great premise but a failure to deliver on well developed characters and a storyline that fell back onto child antics too often left a bitter taste in my mouth on this one.

  • Emperor and Clown by Dave Duncan (447 views)

    This final book in the A Man of His Word series should have ended with a bang. Instead, it was barely a fizzle. A good series, but not great, and not one I would say is a must-read.

  • Acolytes of Cthulhu by Robert M. Price (426 views)

    If you’re looking for a collection that leans more towards the classic style of Lovecraft then I think Acolytes of Cthulhu is a worthy addition to your TBR list.

  • Evil is a Matter of Perspective by Adrian Collins (298 views)

    A high quality collection of short stories with a uniquely evil perspective.

  • The Indivisible and the Void by D.M. Wozniak (278 views)

    "War. Magic. A lover's betrayal. A dark secret lies beneath them all." So begins a tale of mystery and intrigue and some seriously powerful magic.

  • Engines of Empire by R S Ford (194 views)

    A story that is epic in scope is hampered by too many weak characters.

  • Azura Ghost (The Graven #2) by Essa Hansen (166 views)

    While the fantastic tech is no less prevalent in this second book in the Graven series, the storytelling and character development are ratcheted up a few notches to make this an exciting, bold read.

  • Nophek Gloss (The Graven #1) by Essa Hansen (158 views)

    Genre defying, truly mind-blowing technology, and a revenge plot where it doesn't seem anyone can really win. This book has a little bit of everything.

  • The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi (138 views)

    A lighthearted take on kaijus with minimal character and story development. Still, it may be a good read as long as you aren't expecting anything too serious.
