Also, not enough ponies.

Murder of Crows picks up a couple of days after Written in Red. The Lakeside courtyard is still dealing with the fallout from the whole Asia Crane incident and the resulting storm that could have killed all the humans in the city, but didn’t thanks to our heroine Meg’s calming influence. Now, the problem that only slightly showed itself in book one, the two drugs Gone Over Wolf and Feel Good, are becoming more of an issue, as is the Humans First and Last movement, […]

This wasn’t my favorite entry in the series, but I still can’t wait to find out where its going.

Marked in Flesh is the fourth in a series of books, so really, if you haven’t read any of these yet, I can’t imagine that this would be a good place to start. This book is honestly just filler — the major plot points have already been laid out, most of the main characters have been introduced, its just marking time until some of the larger conflicts occur in future installments. Here’s the main thing about these books. I know that these Anne Bishop novels […]

I’M ALIIIIIIIIIIIIVE

June 30, 2016 by narfna 14 Comments

I have been trying to write this review for over a month. First I was blocked because of something I couldn’t figure out how to say about it, and then I moved, and then I went on vacation, and I’ve only read seven books this month! SEVEN! I give up officially on writing a coherent review because I just want it out of my life. I have no idea what I’m about to type. Also, in order to get in a frame of mind to […]

Don’t go into the woods

April 15, 2016 by Malin 2 Comments

3.5 stars This is book four in an ongoing series. It is not the place to start. This review will contain mild spoilers for things that happened in previous books. If you are interested (I think the series is very entertaining and doing something different from most paranormal fantasy, I know others who strongly disagree), you should start with book one, Written in Red. Both the human and the supernatural inhabitants in the Lakeside courtyard are concerned about the further scheming of the Humans First […]

None of the visions seemed particularly silvery to me, actually

March 14, 2015 by Malin 6 Comments

This is book three in The Others series, which is one of my absolute favourite paranormal fantasy series at the moment. While you are given enough information to start with this one, you’ll get the most enjoyment if you start at the beginning, with the excellent Written in Red. There will also be minor spoilers for the earlier books in the series here, so if you don’t like that sort of thing, skip the review until you’re caught up. In a world where humans are […]

4.5 stars This is the second book in the series of The Others.While you get enough information to read it without having read the first one, you should really do yourself a favour and start with Written in Red. It’s the best paranormal/urban fantasy book I read last year, and deserves to be read by as many people as possible. This review will also contain minor spoilers for the first one, so you may want to come back and read it once you’ve finished book 1. Having […]
