A Dinétah monster killer

Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse

by 1 Comment

I was familiar with Rebecca Roanhorse from Twitter and her articles on Tor.com, so definitely excited for Trail of Lightning‘s release last year. I guess I wasn’t the only one because it was sold out at The Ripped Bodice when I went to buy it! Always a good sign and her novel did not disappoint. Trail of Lightning is the first entry in the series: The Sixth World. After a climate apocalypse that drowns most of the world, several nasty things that go bump in the […]

A choice between family and being your authentic self

Marriage of a Thousand Lies by SJ Sindu

by Leave a Comment

Marriage of a Thousand Lies by SJ Sindu isn’t quite a romance but digs into what it means to love. Lucky marries her gay friend Kris to appease her family and remain accepted by her Sri Lankan immigrant community in Boston. A marriage of convenience that works well on the surface. Everyone believes she married for love and escaped the fate of an arranged one. Kris and Lucky can be who they are together in LGBTQ spaces, taking home whoever they want. But things get […]

A space rebel romance

Nightchaser by Amanda Bouchet

by 1 Comment

As a big fan of Amanda Bouchet’s Kingmaker Chronicles, I was pumped for her new book Nightchaser. This is the first book in her new sci-fi space series, which centers on Tess Bailey. She is a space captain with a troubled past who has become a sort of Robin Hood in space. She and her crew steal vaccines and supplies to give to children in need. At the start of the book, we find her on the run with a stolen lab. The Dark Watch […]

A silly tale of the end times

Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett

by Leave a Comment

Good Omens, The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch was my first foray into the mind of Terry Pratchett. It was my fourth read from Neil Gaiman. I know, I know, I need to read more Pratchett. Since I enjoyed this collaboration, I definitely will soon. The book follows two unlikely friends Aziraphale, an angel, and Crowley, a demon, who must stop the end of the world. They’ve known each other since the Garden of Eden. They kept in touch despite working for […]

Humans out for witch blood

A Perfect Blood by Kim Harrison

by Leave a Comment

A Perfect Blood is the tenth entry in Kim Harrison‘s series about a witch bounty hunter, Rachel Morgan. This time around, it’s not supernatural beings out for her blood but…humans. Rachel believes the I.S. has called her out to consult, but really they wanted to see if she was the culprit of ritual witch killings. The victims apparently are being experimented upon with illegal demon curses by a group of human terrorists who want to rid the world of all supernatural creatures. Seems a bit […]

A supernatural murder mystery

Iron & Velvet (Kate Kane Paranormal Investigator #1) by Alexis Hall

by Leave a Comment

Iron & Velvet by Alexis Hall is a paranormal F/F romance mystery. I’m always up for anything paranormal with a broody detective, so this was right up my alley. Kate Kane is a private investigator for the supernatural underworld of London. Even though she has a fairy mother, she lives her life as a human, only calling on her untested powers for emergencies. The book opens with a werewolf’s murder outside an elite vampire club. Kate’s called onto the case by her ex-boyfriend Patrick who basically […]
