The Sisters Mederos by Patrice Sarath
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Review: Space Unicorn Blues

Space Unicorn Blues by T.J. Berry
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

49. [Space Unicorn Blues] - TJ Berry - 3.5* Series: The Reason #1

Imaginative meld of fantasy and sci fi. We've gone into space and met dwarves, satyrs, unicorns and other fantasy critters. And what happened. Of course we had a war with them.

I enjoyed the story, the world building and the characterization.

Review: Tiamat's Wrath

Tiamat's Wrath by James S.A. Corey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


As usual for this series, I simply couldn't put the bloody book down. I love the characters, the world building is excellent, and I love the science it manages to add in without taking a thing away from the characters and the action.

Kellanved's Reach by Ian C. Esslemont
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

47. [Kellanved's Reach] - Ian C. Esslemont - Series: Path to Ascendancy #3

I listened to the audio version read wonderfully by John Banks.

I love Dancer and Kellanved and enjoyed this series immensely, seeing the two of them meet, scheme, and grow up together, and, incidentally, create the Malazan empire.

Review: A Crown for Cold Silver

A Crown for Cold Silver by Alex Marshall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lots of gallows humor saves this book from being too like others that follow the adventures of those attempting to overthrow a kingdom.

Some interesting magic, lots of demons, and interesting characters.
