Death Doesn’t Discriminate

February 1, 2017 by Lipton 4 Comments

Life is cruel and life is kind; sometimes it gives and other times it takes. Life is one side of the coin and death is the other. There are the living and there are the dead and then there are the ones trapped in between.

Thieves in Love

December 31, 2016 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

Fate’s Edge is the third book of The Edge series by Ilona Andrews. Kaldar Mar, cousin to Cerise from the previous book, is recruited by Lady Virai to retrieve a magical artifact stolen impossibly stolen from a literal Fort Knox type pyramid.

That is his power – if you bet him to do […]

“Chicks dig a man of mystery. And werewolves. Chicks really dig werewolves”

December 30, 2016 by Malin 1 Comment

4.5 stars Spoiler warning! This is the third book in The Innkeeper Chronicles and as such, this review may contain spoilers for previous books in the series. It’s also a series that is best read in order, so if you are unfamiliar with the books, go start at the beginning, with Clean Sweep. While Dina Demille may seem like a fairly ordinary young human woman, she is in fact an Innkeeper, and within the bounds of her inn, she is almost unbelievably powerful. Her broom […]

Love in a magical swamp

December 29, 2016 by teresaelectro 4 Comments

I kicked off the year with Bayou Moon from Ilona Andrews’ The Edge series. This novel follows William, an ex-military changeling werewolf loner. He was a supporting character in the first book, On the Edge. William retired to The Edge, a liminal zone between the “Broken” (our world devoid of magic) and the “Weird” (a mirror earth dimension full of magic). In this reality, werewolves are either killed at birth or forced into the military. His forest cabin solitude is interrupted when two agents from The […]

In every generation, there is a Chosen One…

December 10, 2016 by Malin Leave a Comment

3.5 stars It’s been two months since I read this (why, yes, I am terribly behind on my reviews), so I’m resorting to Goodreads for the summary: Beneath the glitter of nineteenth century London society lurks a bloodthirsty evil…  Vampires have always lived among them, quietly attacking unsuspecting debutantes and dandified lords as well as hackney drivers and Bond Street milliners. If not for the vampire slayers of the Gardella family, these immortal creatures would long ago have taken control of the world.   In every […]
