Review: The Kheld King (The Triempery Revelations #2) by L.L. Stephens

March 31, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

This is an excellent continuation of the series. I’d recommend The Triempery Revelations to anyone who enjoys epic fantasy with a darker tone.

Book Tour/Review: His Ragged Company (The Testimonies of Elias Faust #1) by Rance D. Denton

March 25, 2023 by Craig Bookwyrm Leave a Comment

His Ragged Company is a wild ride into the old west, with a twist of magic, a hint of horror, a splash of sci-fi, and a whole lot of weird-ass goings on besides.

Review: Springtide Harvest by J.D. Mitchell

March 23, 2023 by Jordan Leave a Comment

This was a fun quest filled fantasy book. It really reminded me of a quest for a Dungeons and Dragons campaign, making me think of a group surrounded around a table. The quests are real and interesting, constantly upping the ante with each subsequent visit to the dungeons and other locales throughout the novel. It starts with a bang and keeps it going, right up until the end of the novel. The artwork in the physical edition was a great addition, giving another sense to the pacing and sense of time through the novel.

The Dresden Files meets Deadwood in this fantastically weird western by Rance D. Denton. Fast-paced, witty, violent and riveting, HIs Ragged Company keeps you on the edge of your seat and then makes you laugh so hard you fall off.

Review: Mystic Reborn (Archives of Evelium #2) by Jeffrey Speight

March 22, 2023 by Jordan 1 Comment

The Tales of Evelium are great fun and intriguing stories of adventure. The paladin has returned to the world and is a hero that everyone will cheer for, with his new and great powers!! The political aspect of the kingdom was great and was one of my favorite aspects of this new novel. It was great to see the author take some great new twists that allowed the story to be more intriguing and allow for the complexities of the characters to really come to life. I continue to look forward to all of the tales of Evelium that we are allowed to discover!

Review: The Poppy War (The Poppy War #1) by R.F. Kuang

March 15, 2023 by A.J. Calvin 1 Comment

The Poppy War is a classic underdog story, but with a brutal and very dark twist. A good read, and one that sets the stage for future installments in the series.

Tangled politics, fascinating characters, and a world ruled by sleeping gods… Sordaneon was immersive from page one.

Review: Four-Scored (Needle and Leaf #2) by Andrew D Meredith

March 8, 2023 by Jordan Leave a Comment

Andrew Meredith is a master of world building. Add intriguing characters and unique plots adds up to novels that readers will love for years to come. There is so much heart and care poured out into each word that is carefully placed into the novel. Once again we are on a journey with the return of two beloved characters, now believing they are free. It was great to be with the father and son relationship that is so carefully crafted and really calls out to me. It is a great addition to their story of what could come from this incredible world.

Review: Lord and King (A Drowned Kingdom Saga #3) by P.L. Stuart

March 6, 2023 by Jordan Leave a Comment

This is a series that holds the promise of even more amazing things to come. The battles are everything that is dreamed of with heart pounding action as well as causing the reader to hold their breath with what the consequences of the battles could be. I find it refreshing that the character is not perfect, though it is perfection that is strived for. He is not the greatest, strongest, or the smartest but is great in all of the above. I eagerly look forward to the future of Othrun and his kingdom. I urge everyone to join in to see where it could go.

Review: Son of a Liche (The Dark Profit Saga #2) by J. Zachary Pike

March 5, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

As far as sequels go, this was a good one. There is much more going on in this book than it’s predecessor, but it was just as funny in parts.

BOOK TOUR/REVIEW: The Way of Unity (Velspar – Elegies #1) by Sarah K. Balstrup

March 4, 2023 by Sean Leave a Comment

The Way of Unity is a unique dark fantasy full of emotion and fully realized characters. If you like your heroes and villains ambiguous and deep, Sarah K. Balstup has got you covered. Asking deep questions without an agenda, this novel poses many questions with no clear answers. Beautiful prose, deep characters, a splash of romance and political scheming, what more could you want?
