Book Review: The Providence of Fire by Brian Stavely (spoilers)

Time for another delayed review (though only slightly this time.) I’d actually put off reading this book until I got the other delayed reviews finished, but I still didn’t end up getting it done on time. Still, here we are. ( I don’t have the book in front of me at the moment, so pleaseContinue reading “Book Review: The Providence of Fire by Brian Stavely (spoilers)”

JordanCon 2015 Recap (Part 3)

On to day three, the last day of JordanCon. 😦 I let myself sleep a little bit late again, because I really needed it, and between that and packing (checkout was at noon), I didn’t make it down until around 11:30. Seeing as that was in the middle of a panel block, and there wasn’tContinue reading “JordanCon 2015 Recap (Part 3)”

Book Review: Shadow Ops: Breach Zone, by Myke Cole (spoilers)

Another of my delayed reviews (nearing the end of those; only 1 more to go before I am more or less up to date). Hopefully, the fact that it’s been a while won’t have too much of a negative impact here (also I’m currently in Israel, without the book, so there’s that.). Otherwise, I’ll beContinue reading “Book Review: Shadow Ops: Breach Zone, by Myke Cole (spoilers)”

JordanCon 2015 Recap (Part 2)

On to day 2! (Otherwise known as the longest day of the con.) I managed to get about 5 hours sleep, and after eating made it down sometime around 11. I actually can’t recall if I made it to the first writing panel of the day, but I definitely made it to the second, whichContinue reading “JordanCon 2015 Recap (Part 2)”

Movie Review: Mythica: A Quest for Heroes

Something new! (And my second post in two weeks!) I’ve written about movies before, but those were called Learning From Movies. Reason being, they were movies that had some good or worthwhile aspects, but overall weren’t ‘good’ movies. With those posts, I briefly reviewed the movies, then talked about the good in them, which oneContinue reading “Movie Review: Mythica: A Quest for Heroes”

Book Review: Tome of the Undergates, By Sam Sykes

So…this review is a bit delayed, (well, more than a bit), as is my return to actually posting things here. I’d blame a combination of school work (nearing the end of my Master’s program) and focusing on my fiction (been querying a lot as well as working on a couple of books at different stagesContinue reading “Book Review: Tome of the Undergates, By Sam Sykes”

Book Review: Shadow Ops: Fortress Frontier, By Myke Cole (Possible spoilers)

After far too long, I finally got my hands on Myke Cole’s Shadow Ops: Fortress Frontier, the second book in the series. As expected, I greatly enjoyed it, and had a very hard time putting it down. (Though I probably should note that I might be a tiny bit biased, since Myke is an awesomeContinue reading “Book Review: Shadow Ops: Fortress Frontier, By Myke Cole (Possible spoilers)”

Book Review: Thieftaker, By D. B. Jackson (Spoilers)

Continuing my summer reading binge, I recently finished reading D. B. Jackson’s Thieftaker, the first in a series of historical urban fantasy novels. Now, a little bit of background as to how I ended up reading this book. I actually met D. B. Jackson (also known as David B. Coe) at JordanCon several years agoContinue reading “Book Review: Thieftaker, By D. B. Jackson (Spoilers)”

Book Review: Monster Hunter International, by Larry Correia (Spoilers)

And I’m back from another too long lapse in blog posts…this time it’s entirely my fault–the fiction writing just was too compelling. (currently writing two new books while editing and revising a third.)  Another reason I’m finally getting this done is because the library I borrowed this book from won’t let me even renew itContinue reading “Book Review: Monster Hunter International, by Larry Correia (Spoilers)”

Book Review: The Emperor’s Blades by Brian Staveley (Major Spoilers)

(Quick preface: I originally started writing this post a couple months back, just after finishing the book, but lacked the time to properly put together the entire post. Don’t think my thoughts have changed much at all, and hopefully I don’t make any dumb mistakes. The review intro is also a bit outdated, but IContinue reading “Book Review: The Emperor’s Blades by Brian Staveley (Major Spoilers)”
