Grimalkin the Witch Assassin by Joseph Delaney

Grimalkin the Witch Assassin by Joseph Delaney

February 24, 2025 by Classic Leave a Comment

Wow. Just wow. This honestly is the best book I have read in the series and it is now my favorite. This book had everything and even at one point had me in tears. I loved the insight it gave us to Grimalkin, why she was so focused on destroying the Fiend, and what it means to her to be a witch assassin. “Grimalkin the Witch Assassin” is told in the POV of Grimalkin. Each chapter has her talking to someone (you quickly find out […]

Rage of the Fallen by Joseph Delaney

Rage of the Fallen by Joseph Delaney

February 23, 2025 by Classic Leave a Comment

Rubs eyes. At this point I think that the series is going to have each book with Tom traveling to each country that has ever been in a matter of days and have him take out another big bad. This book always cements the fact that Tom is a Gary Sue. And that Alice is the best thing ever and maybe that is who we should have been following all along. “Rage of the Fallen” has our merry trio (not really) traveling to Ireland to […]

Rise of the Huntress

Rise of the Huntress by Joseph Delaney

February 23, 2025 by Classic Leave a Comment

I don’t know why Goodreads showed me giving this four stars, I did not. This was three stars, at best. Taking up soon after the events in Greece and Tom and Alice doing something really dumb (again) we have the two of them and the Spook returning home and realizing it’s been destroyed and the County has been overrun. They decide to flee to the island of Mona and once again, they have some evil doers out there, some in league with the Fiend (again) […]

Clash of the Demons by Joseph Delaney

Clash of the Demons by Joseph Delaney

February 23, 2025 by Classic Leave a Comment

Whelp, this was just not good at all. Compared to the length of the other books I can’t believe I am going to say this, this needed to be longer. Too much got cramped in here, too many reveals (no spoilers) and way too short of an ending to move onto the next thing. I was interested in how things were going to go down in Greece, but geez it was rushed, it didn’t make a lot of sense, and of course if you know […]

Wrath of the Bloodeye by Joseph Delaney

Wrath of the Bloodeye by Joseph Delaney

February 23, 2025 by Classic Leave a Comment

I thought the fifth book in the series was just okay, there were some really bad plot elements in this one and I think the book fast forwarded a bit to get to the next book in the series (spoiler alert, it was not good) and better time would have been spent setting this up better. We have Tom being sent off to train with a new Spook so he can learn about different types of witches, but also more one on one combat. Also, […]

The Stake of love

Bloody Mary by Nick Winn

February 21, 2025 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Silver Sprocket publishers had a sale. I looked up titles, found a few I wanted, and signed up for their monthly subscription for books. One of the books that came out of that mish-mash was called Bloody Mary by Nick Winn. It is a smidgen longer than a usual Zine, but it is more zine than what I consider a full-on graphic novel.  The first issue I had with it was that there are several moments where I felt like I started in the middle […]
