Title: Down to the Bone Subtitle: Quantum Gravity, Book 5 Author: Justina Robson Narrator: Mel Hudson Format: Unabridged Length: 14 hrs and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 03-28-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The gap between the worlds was so thin in places, you could almost step across without meaning to... Lila Black can still turn into a lethal war-winning machine with the merest thought but she doesn't work for the agency any more. Problem is, she has no idea what to do next. Teazle is a demon who may have become Death's Angel. Zal is a has-been elven musician without a band. They don't add up to much and when they get together major stuff goes down. But the dead are walking, the veil between the worlds is tearing and if it fails altogether all bets are off. Someone has to do something and it looks like it's going to have to be Lila. Is attitude enough to get you through life and death? Will it get you a happy ending? Critic Reviews: "Robson wraps up her highly inventive, often convoluted Quantum Gravity series with this complex tale that brings all the different elements of the story together in a satisfactory conclusion... The way this stellar urban fantasy unfolds is much like following a mobius strip as it twists and folds back upon itself while never failing to deliver plenty of surprises. The relationship between Lila, Zal and Teazle has been a fascinating centerpiece of the overall story and plays a large role in this last book of the series." (MonstersAndCritics) Members Reviews: good lisen Good lisen and good story . Leaves you wanting a bit more this could be a good thing .

Title: Rise (A Lantern City Illustrated Novel) Subtitle: A Lantern City Illustrated Novel Author: Matthew James Daley Narrator: Bruce Boxleitner Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 12-27-13 Publisher: Macrocosm Entertainment, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Visionary leader or despotic tyrant? Every day, the citizens of Lantern City ask themselves this of their young leader, Killian Grey, the fourth Grey ruler of the great walled city. But Killian is not the first member of the Grey family to elicit such a response. Rise tells the story of Isaac Foster Grey, the first leader of Lantern City. Isaac's battles through misfortunes and his ultimate quest to save his family intertwine with a burning vengeance against his father's killer and that man's plan for domination over every citizen in the land of Hetra. Rise is a journey through a fantastic world of myth, mystery, violence, and epic circumstance that challenges the definitions of good and evil. Rise tells of the legacy of the Grey family and begins the story of the creation of the enlightened and dark world of Lantern City. Members Reviews: Excellent, original world full of promise I've never been a huge steampunk fan but after listening to Bruce Boxleitner's amazing voice talent reading this book I have to say I'm definitely a fan now. Fascinating, original world with the dark political hues of Game of Thrones it's worth listening to in preparation for the upcoming TV show and comic book series. Lots of promise for this creative concept. I just wish the story hadn't "ended" so soon! Talk about a cliffhanger! All hype and steam, no substance Whhaaaat is up with some of the high star reviews on Amazon? This is written HORRIBLY, in a tell-don't-show manner that just doesn't work for books. The narration dictates to us precisely what we're suppose to think of so-and-such and the details of the world are so vague that it's impossible to get a feel for where they are. Even if this were a tv series, the premise of the story wasn't interesting enough to convince me to watch. It's disjointed and nothing is described well (if at all). Characters make abrupt choices without any proper development to make their decisions believable, and none of them are likable enough to really care about what happens to them anyway. I don't know what the male equivalent term to a 'marysue' is, but Isaac Grey is just that, and Killian is set up to be the same. This should not have been approved to be sold to a paying audience.

Title: Taminy Subtitle: The Mer Cycle, Book 2 Author: Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff Narrator: Brittany Pressley Format: Unabridged Length: 17 hrs and 36 mins Language: English Release date: 12-18-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: They said Meredydd-a-Lagan was a flukea rebellious girl who went to the Meris Sea in defiance of tradition. She was no fluke. She trod the path of Taminy-a-Cuinn, the girl who sought the Meri one hundred years before. Taminy was said to have drowned, but she did not. She became what she sought; the Merithe Being who stands between God and Man. Now, shes human again and back from the Sea with a purpose: To save Caraid-land from its own king. Will she fulfill her purpose, or will she succumb to those who wish to control her and use her knowledge and power to control others? Taminy is the sequel to The Meri. Members Reviews: Relationship of the Holy with women and men Continues the story of The Meri and the relationship of people to the Holy. It considers the difference between real relationship and just the outer trappings of relationship. It is a tale of struggle, misunderstandings, gender bias, and redemption and it spoke powerfully to me. This is the second in the trilogy containing The Meri, Taminy, and The Crystal Rose. Highly recommended. Even better than the first book Ms. Bohnhoff has done it again. I couldn't put the book down! Book 2 picks up where book 1 left us, so I highly recommend reading these in order. I had read some other reviews that said they didn't like that it didn't stand alone, and I can't find it in me to agree. I really liked that they built on each other. Most of the great Fantasy series' build upon the previous books, it allows for more detail and a better story line (imho). The breif synopsis is that Taminy trades places with Meredydd (I don't want to spoil too much) and is thrown into life and the drama surrounding the Cyne (read: King. See, read the appendices first!) and the Osraed. She must fight to remember who she is, and not be distracted by the obsticles thrown at her. -------------------------- I REALLY enjoyed this story. Like I said in my review of book 1 I look forward to purchasing these in print (as I have ended up winning both books through GoodReads or LibraryThing). Ok, so a little bit of "kind of" spoiling here: There was one thing that I was curious about or that may have nagged me a bit while reading. About half way through the book one of the main characters just disappeared from the story. Gwynet seemed to be who the author was trailing for the first few chapters until Taminy was reintroduced then Gwynet slowly went to the wayside then was never mentioned again. I would have liked to see her at least peppered in a little bit. And I would have also liked to hear a bit more about the "mysterious woman" who showed up during the trials! Maybe book 3?? Cant wait!! Otherwise I loved it! And I think it kind of reminds me of Skyrim...and would make a great video game (imho)! Wonderful An excellent continuation of The Mer Cycle! I loved getting to know characters from the first novel, seeing their growth, and observing their interactions with Taminy and her enemies. Can't wait to read the next one! great second book This series begins with The Meri. It's really excellent. Bohnhoff gives us a woman-centered religion dominated by a male priesthood, in an unusual context, with a fresh eye and a strong voice...and a satisfying second book.

The Captain's Door Audiobook by C.S. Houghton

Houghton Narrator: K Orion Fray Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 42 mins Language: English Release date: 11-15-13 Publisher: C.S. Houghton Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: At the helm of a tall ship stands Mina Paradis. She may look young, but Mina's spent a lifetime serving her family and country. Now she's tired, so tired, of following orders and watching her friends grow old and die while she never ages a day. Desperate to escape the slow suffocation of a circumscribed life, Mina prepares to break the terms of her indenture. Such treason threatens to propel her through an intensely personal struggle to save herself, spare her crew, and face an adolescence long-delayed. The Captain's Door opens the Mina Paradis series with a unique exploration of obligation and independence set in an alternative 19th century. Fans of character-driven fantasy, like that of Ursula K. Le Guin, will appreciate the slower pace and literary build. Members Reviews: A very interesting fantasy The story was well-told, with realistic and believable characters. The setting was both familiar and utterly unique at the same time. Even when there was gaps between the action the story kept you wanting to keep going. The narration was adequate; K Orion Fray has room to grow (much like the main character) - she will occasionally tend to monotone but differentiates the characters well enough and finds emotional resonance where it is most important. Overall I would highly recommend you give this title and author a try. Good Adult Adventure on the Seas What made the experience of listening to The Captain's Door the most enjoyable? I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised to find it adult and read very well by K. Orion Fray. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Captain's Door? Such bravery for a woman of that time period. What about K. Orion Frays performance did you like? Great clear specific enunciation! Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The tenacity of the character from beginning to end.

Title: The Wilful Princess and the Piebald Prince Author: Robin Hobb Narrator: Rachel Atkins Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 10-24-13 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Internationally-bestselling, critically-acclaimed author Robin Hobb takes readers deep into the history behind the Farseer series in this exclusive, new novella. One of the darkest legends in the Realm of the Elderlings recounts the tale of the so-called Piebald Prince, a Witted pretender to the throne unseated by the actions of brave nobles so that the Farseer line could continue untainted. Now the truth behind the story is revealed through the account of Felicity, a low-born companion of the Princess Caution at Buckkeep. With Felicity by her side, Caution grows into a headstrong Queen-in-Waiting. But when Caution gives birth to a bastard son who shares the piebald markings of his fathers horse, Felicity is the one who raises him. And as the prince comes to power, political intrigue sparks dangerous whispers about the Wit that will change the kingdom forever Internationally-bestselling, critically-acclaimed author Robin Hobb takes readers deep into the history behind the Farseer series in this exclusive, new novella, The Willful Princess and the Piebald Prince. In her trademark style, Hobb offers a revealing exploration of a family secret still reverberating generations later when assassin FitzChivalry Farseer comes onto the scene. Fans will not want to miss these tantalizing new insights into a much-beloved world and its unforgettable characters. Critic Reviews: Hobb is one of the great modern fantasy writerswhat makes her novels as addictive as morphine is not just their imaginative brilliance but the way her characters are compromised and manipulated by politics. (The Times) Robin Hobb writes achingly well (SFX) Hobb is a remarkable storyteller. (Guardian) Members Reviews: A great short story Another excellent story from Robin Hobb. Shorter than the other books, and self contained. I'm not sure if it's set before or after the other books, but it didn't stop me enjoying it. great I found Robin Hobb's story as gripping as all her tales, salutory and inspirational, fine writing indeed. Worth a listen This book provides a great look into the history of the Wit within the Farseer family. Robin Hobb never disappoints! I would recommend this book whole heartedly. Short and sweet, it answers some key questions from the Farseer and Fool's trilogies. Beautifully sad poinient tale This is not essential listening for the realm of the elderlings but it is so beautifully written and moving it is likely one of my favourite installments. Add to that the narrator truly understood the tone and pulled it all together, a blessing considering the seriously dodgy (and sometime down right infuriating!) narration of other instalments.

Betrovia: The First of Three of the Series Land of Betrovia Audiobook by Dave King

Title: Betrovia: The First of Three of the Series Land of Betrovia Author: Dave King Narrator: Ian Miller Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 13 mins Language: English Release date: 10-03-13 Publisher: Dave King Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: What can a man expect from his Creator after losing his wife to a long, debilitating illness, then agonizing over raising two daughters on his own? Being challenged to pursue a new career path, not once, not twice but three times early in his adult life can also create anxiety about the future. Patrik Veillein, as a newly-married young man (with a dutiful but recalcitrant wife in tow), turns away from the comforts of small town life to help his uncle manage a road-side inn many miles away. And before he gets a handle on that new job, before he can learn all there is to run a roadside inn, the uncle suddenly dies. If he had stayed where he was born, in the village where he was well-liked and well-adjusted, he could have become a successful hunter, fur trapper, and quite possibly a successful artist. Moving to the Lonely Fox Inn meant leaving everything that was comfortable, predictable and even rational. Managing the Lonely Fox Inn meant meeting boisterous traveling salesmen, surly soldiers, mean-spirited mercenaries, and even an adventurer harboring a deep, dark secret. But, it also meant facing disappointment, disillusionment and even disaster. Members Reviews: A great character driven fantasy story Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes, the book was very enjoyable, and well-written. What did you like best about this story? I like the fact that the story centers on an inn-keeper and his family rather than on heroes and warriors. It makes it easier to relate to the characters, while also giving it a fresh and original perspective on the fantasy genre. Which character as performed by Ian Miller was your favorite? Patrik If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? Troubled times are coming to the land of Betrovia. Any additional comments? Dave King is a fantasy author who clearly has an eye for the grand as well as for the little things. Whether it is the politics of the kingdom or the politics of the kitchen, the author pays close attention to every detail. This is definitely my kind of fantasy story; it remains focused on the characters and their day to day doings without losing sight of the grander picture, and without locking you inside their heads like many modern fantasy novels seem to do. In Betrovia, Dave King approaches the fantasy genre from a unique perspective, telling the tale mostly from the perspective of an old inn keeper - the sort of man who is usually only in the background of epic stories. I liked just about everything about the book. There was very little in the way of magic, which I much prefer over magic-saturated stories like The Wheel of Time series. The author did a great job of making his characters lovable and interesting, each with their own quirks and strengths. The dialogue was especially interesting. There was a lot of humorous banter and the characters had some unique expressions that helped give you the sense that you were truly in a different land and a different time. One of the most enjoyable fantasy stories I've read in a LONG time. The audio performance was excellent! Ian Miller really made the story come alive, and added a lot of... character to the characters. It really felt as though Betrovia had a culture of its own just in the way the voice acting was executed. One of the best audiobook performances I have listened to.

The first two novels are;The First Betrayal (The Chronicles of Josan, Book 1)and the second bookThe Sea Change (The Chronicles of Josan, Book 2). This is a series that may be overlooked by many readers simply because it is not getting a lot of publicity. I first stumbled upon Ms. Bray's work due to Amazon.com recommending it to me one night. I gave it a shot and was hooked within fifteen pages.

The Choir Boats Audiobook by Daniel A. Rabuzzi

Rabuzzi Narrator: Kieron Elliot Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 05-29-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: London, 1812 - Yount, Year of the Owl What would you give to make good on the sins of your past? For merchant Barnabas McDoon, the answer is: everything.When emissaries from a world called Yount offer Barnabas a chance to redeem himself, he accepts their price to voyage to Yount with the key that only he can use to unlock the door to their prison. But bleak forces seek to stop him: Yount's jailer, a once-human wizard who craves his own salvation, kidnaps Barnabas's nephew. A fallen angel, a monstrous owl with eyes of fire, will unleash Hell if Yount is freed. And, meanwhile, Barnabas's niece, Sally, and a mysterious pauper named Maggie seek with dream-songs to wake the sleeping goddess who may be the only hope for Yount and Earth alike. Members Reviews: Really unusual and very literary debut fantasy This was a surprising novel and very hard to review. It is certainly a fantasy with some elements of steampunk and some elements of historical fiction but I find it quite difficult to pin it to a definite sub-genre. Although it has a fairy tale quality to it, it is a book that is written to be read on many levels. You would have to be extremely well read to catch all the many literary, mythological, historical, and Biblical references (some of them quite sly) in this book, but it could be read by an older child for just the basic story since it is adventuresome and fun. And, I found the illustrations that are in the print version online and I'm sure a child would love the pictures. There are 3 major characters that are teenagers which may be why some people have labeled this book as YA and I think the book does provide two pretty terrific young heroines, but I don't think the novel fits any YA pattern I've seen. Rabuzzi starts the story in 1812 London and paints an accurate picture of that time/place while at the same time throwing in references to fictional books and characters as though they were part of real history. He is using the same historical time period for this novel as Naomi Noviks Temeraire series with the Napoleonic wars in the background and The Choir Boats reminded me a bit of that series in tone, but Rabuzzi uses a wider and richer vocabulary and much of his prose is truly beautiful. Steampunk is not the plot driver in this book that it is in some of the genre, but Rabuzzi weaves a bit of it in when the characters advance in their quest for Yount, a mystical world that exists in parallel with our own world, the fate of which seems to be intertwined with our own. This is a quest fantasy with a lot of humor. And although the characters are a bit bolder than life, they are lovingly detailed and interesting. One of the things I enjoyed the most is the way Rabuzzi took a "good guy" and slowly revealed a back story that made you see him as much more human than he looked at first. And, he also took a "bad guy" and gave him so much more context as the story unfolded, you begin to doubt if he is evil at all. There are a few places where I felt the narrative slowed a bit, but overall the pacing was good and I was never bored. There are a couple of romantic stories woven into the plot, but no sex scenes, coarse language, or really graphic violence so the book should be fine for younger readers although the vocabulary may be challenging for some.

Members Reviews: Hard to listen to What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? The narrator was hard to understand. Her accent slurred several words together so that much of the time, I wasn't sure what she was saying. Her pitch was also a little high, so that could've added to the problem. I can't comment on the story itself as I really couldn't get past the first 10 minutes. Would you ever listen to anything by Angela Highland again? With a different narrator, probably. What didnt you like about Gia St. Claires performance? Her accent. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Valor of the Healer? Couldn't say as I didn't finish listening to it.

Be safe, be careful, trust no one, and live, my child, live to write a glorious ballad about your adventure..." With these words, a dying elf gives young bard Gillien Songespynner a magical lute and changes her life forever. For someone is after the lute - a relentless adversary who is never what he seems, and who will stop at nothing in order to prevent Gillien from delivering the lute safely to Queen-mother Ariel. All too soon, the young musician is on the run, brutally bereft of family, even of her true identity. Her only companion on this desperate adventure is a former swordsman named Daric, charged by a mysterious patron with protecting Gillien and the lute. But Daric has a haunted past and secrets of his own that may well betray them both...that is, if they live long enough.... Members Reviews: A well told, suspenseful story! This is a wonderful story. There is action, suspense, some romance and enough twists and turns in the plot to keep one guessing for quite a while. The characters are well developed, likeable, and mostly have well told back-stories. Christie Golden paints a new universe with a full palette, but isn't ever tedious about teaching the 'rules', if you will of the new universe she's created. As readers, we learn of the pantheon and magic of the universe in seemingly natural ways as we follow our protagonist on her journey, without any tedious or lengthy exposition to pull us out of the main thrust of the story. A Journey Through the Human Soul The Seven Gods of Mortal-kind, the Humans that they lead and blind; The Fala, the Sa, Ilsi and Kir, The Lady's people, races fair. Just as fair, their forms more free, Swim the People of the Sea. Demons made from darkest dreams Guard the Night King as he schemes. Last and least, the angry Ghil Lurk and envy, stalk and kill But there are more who linger here Than Demons dark and gods to fear; More than elves and more than men- Aertha's kind are one and ten. -"The Naming of the Kinds", from the Book of The Lady The excerpt above is from Christie Golden's original fantasy novel Instrument of Fate, and in a way, it provides a nice foreshadowing of the story. This is a book that follows a female bard and her quest to deliver a musical instrument to the Queen-Mother of Byrn. War is on the verge of breaking out between men and elves, and this one little adventure is vital to the outcome. However this is not a story about the brewing war, but a personal story about the bard. She must persevere against the odds, and mostly on her own. It's a story of great emotion, and great characters. Quite simply, it's one of Golden's best. In this world of fantasy there are a few basic races: elves, humans, and the Ghil. The evles basically stay to themselves, and during this period of time, they are divided. Some of the elves despise human kind and wish to renew the old wars against them. Other elves have learned to forgive and even like the humans and have no wish to renew the war. Some care little and have no opinion. Like traditional elves, they have pointy ears, are small in stature, and live a long time. They are also emotionally reserved. Humans on the other hand are creatures of emotion and are portrayed as humans are always portrayed. The Ghil are interesting in that they are ratmen who make a living off slavery.

Title: The Garden of the Stone Author: Victoria Strauss Narrator: Michael McConnohie Format: Unabridged Length: 19 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 03-05-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: At the heart of the Fortress lay the Garden. At the heart of the Garden lay the Stone. It was a living entity of power beyond understanding - not even by the men who had used its energies to control the un-Gifted masses, ever since the wrenching cataclysm that shattered the union of Hand and Mind and split the world centuries ago. Then came Bron, his arrival long foretold, destined to restore the balance between Hand and Mind. But Bron had other plans. He stole the Stone...and vanished. Now Bron's daughter Cariad, a powerful empath and skilled assassin, must follow the footsteps of a father she has never known, into the depths of the same Fortress. Waiting there is Jolyon, her father's deadly enemy, a man whose thirst for domination is matched only by his taste for blood...and who possesses the power to satisfy both appetites. Cariad must learn the secret of Jolyon's strength before it is too late. For just as her father's arrival was prophesied, so too is his return. And this time Jolyon is ready - for Bron to die. Members Reviews: Just as good as the first one The Garden of the Stone has it all--a fast paced and exciting plot, fascinating world building, and excellent characters. No cardboard heroes here--the characters are so real you feel they're people you could actually meet. The book tells two stories, of Cariad, a skilled assassin on a secret mission to kill her father's greatest enemy, and Konstant, who is sent from a world of magic into a world of technology to find a man (the hero of The Arm of the Stone, the previous book in the series) who is the focus of an important prophecy. The two stories interrelate, but remain separate until the final chapters, when Strauss brings them beautifully together. Endings are often a problem in fantasy--the author runs out of steam or ideas, and all you're left with is a big so what." Not here. The climax of The Garden of the Stone is surprising and satisfying. I don't agree with the person who said this book doesn't stand alone. Ms. Strauss does a good job of including the action of volume 1, and though some characters from the previous book return, there are many new ones, and the story takes place in different settings. But it is a sequel, after all, so I would recommend reading the Arm of the Stone first, because it gives a better context for Garden, and also because the two books work so well together. Good, but could have been better. The plot is okay. The writing is pretty good. I'll admit that I read most of the book in one setting, so, it is engaging enough. But, the book fails to be compelling. The heroine Cariad is very one-faceted and fails to elicit sympathy. I kept wishing she would be tortured more during her captivity because I was so tired of her having been exposed to characters of her ilk half a dozen times before. Speaking of torture, just about every character in the book has some sort of a dark past which supposedly explains their present. Unfortunately, when the past is finally revealled, I couldn't help feeling let down, as in, "that was the big deal?" Truth to tell, I have been disappointed by most of the fantasy I read lately. I guess I'll just have to bear it until George R.R.

But King Gasam and the Islanders are immune. Members Reviews: Good book but too many loose ends. This is the first time I've actually read the entire series. Decades ago only read up to book 4, and finally able to finish the series. I enjoyed the first 4 books, but the last book leaves a lot of things hanging. I'm not sure if there were supposed to be more books to this series or if the intent was to leave almost everything unresolved. This can not be the end. No resolution to the conflicts, the subhuman Gasam and Larissa still alive and well. The series needs a 6th book to give some kind of closure. loved it its matched up with all of his other books perfectly and makes you wish he would right more in the universe of the series

You are immediately drawn into the world of mrem society and into the lives of the complex characters. Lord of Cragsclaw introduces you to Talwe, an enigmatic villager with odd golden eyes which make him the outcast of those he lives with.

Wartorn: Obliteration Audiobook by Robert Asprin, Eric Del Carlo

Title: Wartorn: Obliteration Author: Robert Asprin, Eric Del Carlo Narrator: George Newbern Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 02-25-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: An army of soldiers and magicians has poured out of the north on its quest to unite the city-states of Isthmus under Felk rule. But with conquest comes rebellion, and there are those who won't be taken easily - by magic or by sword. Members Reviews: Satisfactory This book's condition was as described. Ordered on June 7th, I was told to expect delivery by June 29th, this purchase arrived around the 14th. I would do business with this seller again. Not the best ending My biggest problem with this book was the ending. The story was going well, I was interested in what was going on, and there was a moment where it seemed to be heading for an interesting final battle when it suddenly became almost "Rocks fall, everyone dies". The actual ending to the big battle is only discussed rather than shown and the epilogue only shows what happened to three of the characters in detail, although others are more discussed than shown. I would have liked it far better had we been shown rather than just told in hindsight what happened. As it was, it felt like the authors just got tired of writing the series, and decided to end it quickly. That was the only conclusion I could come to on reading this book. In short, a fascinating story let down by a very sub-par ending. Good read, but a bit rushed at the end. This book and its predecessor prove that Asprin (and Del Carlo) can write "serious" fantasy. Strangely enough, I found all the major characters sympathetic, even the "evil" ones. Without going into details, Aquint may not be a role model, but he does recognize and deal with complex ethical issues. Even Dardas has his moments, though he is the most one- (two-?) dimensional of the bunch. It takes talent to show a story from both sides while maintaining balance. Overall, I found this book worth the price. However, I do have a couple of minor quibbles with the work and these prevent me from giving it five stars. First, there is one event that occurs in the Praulth storyline which seems somewhat gratuitous. Second, the ending feels rushed. I am not sure if there is a sequel planned, but the way a lot of the threads are tied up off-stage seemed a bit weak to me. Those two complaints aside, I recommend the book (and Wartorn: Resurrection as well). Five Stars none

Title: Knights Rising Subtitle: Silver Knights Saga, Book 1 Author: Greg Carter Narrator: Jonathan Waters Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 39 mins Language: English Release date: 02-17-13 Publisher: Greg Carter Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Knights Rising: The Silver Knights Saga opens by introducing us to the character of Michael Carlear, a knight in search of his identity and destiny. Our protagonist is on a revengeful quest to avenge his father's death at the hands of the evil mage, Soladar. This journey is further marred by the death of his love, the beautiful Kara, and the person responsible for the same is again Soladar. Now Michael seeks this evil mage trying to understand the reason for the death of his loved ones. But the only way to do that is to destroy Soladar and all the evil that he controls which include the black beasts called Scarious. "The all-consuming desire for revenge for the deaths of Kara and his father gnawed at him like an endless hunger, an unquenchable thirst for his enemies' blood." His only hope may lie in the sword that he carries - a sword that once belonged to the great Silver Knight, Glollas. On his travels he encounters the beautiful and mysterious barmaid, Holly, who hides more than she reveals and is much more than just a romantic fling. While Michael is undertaking his journey, the evil Soladar is on his own mission to destroy the Orb of Chaos, which will imprison the entire free will of humanity. This tantalizing plot form the background of Knights Rising: The Silver Knights Saga, which gives us memorable characters in the form of magi, knights, saplings, and kruckles and will leave you panting for more. "The piercing arrow of love is cut by the shearing edge of the sword of truth. Neither can coexist so yet one must fall to the other. Which shall it be?" Members Reviews: Editor Desperately Needed This review is for the Kindle version. If you want to get through this book you have to be willing to over look a lot. There are many, many spelling errors, missing words and mis-used words. The grammar is below sophomoric. The story itself could have potential but some issues get in the way. The author does not seem to know who his intended audience is. What I mean by this is, I got the impression that at times he was writing for adults and at other times, for grammar school aged kids. The vocabulary tends to meet the latter. Another issue is the characters are involved in a quest, which at times is very descriptive but then gets wrapped up very quickly so that new characters can get introduced toward the end of the book. The author seems to want to take on more than he is capable of handling. Not every book of this genre has to be part of a trilogy. I would have much preferred if the author had stuck with the story he started out writing. I gave this book two stars because there is potential here. The initial story is good and most of the characters are enjoyable (although a couple drive me nuts and just don't belong). This story could have been a lot better with some proper editing. Sadly, it was not provided. Sorry, this does not cut it. I am sorry to be honest here, but this is not well conceived or well written. The dialogue is childish and the plot is poorly conceived. I gave up after a few chapters. I suggest the author think much more about plot development, dialogue that engages the reader rather than bores sophomorically, and avoids using lines to describe mundane things that have no business receiving attention in a fantasy book that should be exciting. Once again, I am sorry to be so direct, but there is no other alternative here.

Swords of Talera Audiobook by Charles Allen Gramlich

Title: Swords of Talera Subtitle: The Talera Cycle, Book 1 Author: Charles Allen Gramlich Narrator: Tantor Studios Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 12-10-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Abruptly transported from Earth to Talera, Ruenn Maclang must slash his way through a world of alien warriors and deadly beasts, where every move can result in death. To stay alive and find his missing brother, Ruenn must quickly learn the discipline of sword and spear, and experience the bitter stench of battle. And he must uncover the many hidden secrets of Talera, a weird and wonderful world very different from our own. Members Reviews: Fun "Sword & Planet" adventure. Get svelte, escape to Talera! Swords of Talera: Book One of the Talera Cycle is fun "Sword & Planet" adventure. Get svelte, escape to Talera. I first discovered Charles Allen Gramlich via his poetic Sword & Sorcery books (highly recommended): Bitter Steel: Tales and Poems of Epic Fantasy and Harvest of War. Being biased toward weird adventure on "earth," I was inspired to branch out slightly because of the Goodreads Sword & Sorcery Group's groupread for May-June 2014, the theme being "Sword & Planet." Being a fan of Gramlich, this was a prime time to try out his Talera Cycle. If you ask the author why he should read it, he'll reveal his humorous side (taken from his Facebook page): "Dr. Charles Gramlich, professor of psychology at a prominent New Orleans University, has made the extraordinary claim that reading the three books of the Talera fantasy series, Swords of Talera, Wings Over Talera, and Witch of Talera, will actually help you lose weight and maintain a svelte figure. Gramlich says that, "those who read the slender volumes of the Talera series, which are quick and exciting stories, develop a speedier metabolism, allowing them to burn calories more quickly. This effect lingers for weeks after the books are finished," he adds, "and can easily be prolonged further by consuming another book by the same author." When asked whether that author, Charles `Allen' Gramlich, was any relation, Dr. Gramlich abruptly yelled "Fire" and left the room." Even though Swords of Talera: Book One of the Talera Cycle is not explicitly comedic, it does present pulp adventure with a dose of old-school "cheese" sprinkled atop weird milieu and tons of melee. It is a homeage the Sword & Planet subgenre initiated by Edgar Rice Burroughs in the early 1900's with John Carter, and has all the tropes fans of the subgenre would demand: a man from the early 1900's gets transported from earth to a strange planet; he can occasionally revisit earth; he manages to quickly converse with many aliens, lead armies, and free a maiden in distress. Gramlich's "Carter" is a 1914 sea merchant captain named Ruenn Maclang, whose arrogance and decisive leadership will remind readers of Indiana Jones. He gets transported to Talera mysteriously along with his crew, though he gets separated and strives to find his fellow earthlings. He is met by many humanoid aliens embroiled in slave-trade and war. Maclang becomes infatuated with a maiden in distress, and shallow-romantic interactions with her are intermittent. A sidebar on the technological history behind the mysterious Planet/Land Talera was distinctly cheezy sci-fi, but was not explored in depth in this first installment.

Mankind was nearly wiped out before managing to drive the demons back into the netherworld. Now, a king's evil chancellor schemes to reopen the Veil and once again unleash the demons. The world's only hope of salvation is an insane boy, himself the descendant of demonic/human hybrids, and the newborn baby he's kidnapped. Members Reviews: Few Editing Problems, Good Story, Aggravating Ending MAJOR SPOILER ALERT!!! MAJOR SPOILER ALERT!!! If you're tired of fantasy stories where the lowly character ends up becoming king or queen, don't bother with this one. I liked it up until then. There were some editing mistakes. A few misspellings (though not many), a word was missing from a sentence here and there, once or twice "their" was used instead of "they're" and quite often throughout the book a whole section was indented. Not just the paragraph beginnings but the whole paragraph, which made it very noticeable. All in all, though, it was a pretty good book. Until I got to the part where he was announced as the heir to the throne, and I was like "Really?? You had to go there??" I thought about throwing the book across the room in annoyance but I only had a page left to go, so I went ahead and finished it. Demonspawn Since this book was free I thought I would give it a chance. I never read anything like this before so I didn't really know what to expect. The story, flow of writing and character development were surprisingly good. My only complaint would be slight typos and words being left out, which seems to be common for these free and .99 cent books. The story reads like historical fiction and kept me intrigued the whole time. Quick and easy read that is worth the $2.99 that it is now listed at in my opinion. Good Read. Very good read. Grammar and spelling need to be reviewed. Other than that, I really enjoyed the book. Thank you. give it a chance pretty good story about demonspawns (descendants of half-demons) being hunt by regular people and a dark sorcerer attempting to connect human world with demons one. good written lightweight reading with few typos but definitely worth the time. fans of this genre should go for it. Dark Tale This book was an easy read in that there weren't many typos and the story flowed. Descriptions were kept brief and the author doesn't bog you down with lengthy fill-in material. The story was a good one and came together well at the end. The only negative I have about this book was the fact that evil won way too much. I always want the good guy to come out on top in my entertainment. Real life doesn't work that way, so I would like for my fantasy life to be rich in good guy winning over bad guy! :-) The bad guys winning all the time made it a little dark for my taste and it was kind of gory too, but other than that, not too bad for a freebie.

High Lady Ordalf wanted her niece, the princess known as the Rose of Sarifal, dead. Instead, the young regent was secreted away by the high ladys opponents. For years the eladrin queen of Gwynneth Isle has searched for evidence of her nieces death, and word has finally come in the form of a castaways tale. The princess lives on the island of Moray - a mad beauty who leads a nation of lycanthropes. As long as her niece is alive, Lady Ordalf cannot rest secure in her claim to the throne. Enlisting a band of adventurers to seek out the princess is thefirst step toward stemming the Rose of Sarifal and her tide of wolves. Will those heroes see the same threat the queen sees in the beautiful young maiden? Members Reviews: Unusually good content but needed more refinement Any additional comments? Not many of these new Audible offerings in the D&D subgenera have reviews yet. But you can go to the Amazon parent company and find reviews of the book itself. The story is a little hard to follow because of the number of characters and groups, as well as the overarching story. It needed to come with a cast of characters and be better at letting the audience know what is going on overall. This was my take: Protagonist crew Lucas - Captain of the Spinx and a ranger Gasparshen -a Genasea (fish humanoid, blue skin like tropical fish) Succa - Gnome The Savage -Golden Elf, black skin golden haired, wears black Marakay -human priestest, yellow hair Kip -boy (referred to as a cat shifter I think), came with Marakay Lady Oraloff - Big Kingdom 1, Queen of the Fey (aka LeShay) Monbaldium - nephew of Oraloff Prince ArathAldron Kendrick -Queen's lord Princess Marabaldia - giantess, prisoner with Succa Poke - lycanthrope, pig, prisoner with Succa Moray Island - where Queen Oraloff ended up after assasination attempt when a child. Amaranth -Island queen (sister to Oraloff). Some lycanthropes inhabitants made her their queen, though they're only a villiage and not the only one on the island. Argon Bale - swordsman and leader of lycanthropes following old ways/god (opposing Amaranth) Aluthra -female druid priest warewolf of Bales's group King Dared, Big Kingdom 2 Captain Rurick - king envoy who hired Lucas/crew to take to Moray island to transport/defend KendrickVendarian - magician of some kind So big Kingdom 2 and some allies would like Kingdom 1 to stop bothering them. They want to get Amaranth from Moray Island to be its new ruler. Oraloff, naturally enough, would rather stay in power. So it is the story of the pawns, the Spinxs crew and Amaranth. Unusually good character development for this subgenera, which is developed with some backstory on the characters as you go and interesting. The past/present back and forth did not throw me. There is more writing talent (I'd say a 4 or 4.5 on that) in many of the scenes than you expect in this subgenera and the naration was subtly good. How smooth the plot seemed to flow and make sense to the audience was the drawback. That and the ending not being very strong. The Spinxs crew has the right dynamic and an earlier, less dramatic and smother story would probably be really good.

While you're here, enjoy the good company, fine drink and elegant lodging to be had at the Vale's premier vacation spot, Snowybrook Inn. But if you venture into the countryside, watch the shadows! Because Goblins lurk behind every rock, and Imperial soldiers are always around, looking to teach an unruly frontiersman a lesson. Snowybrook Inn is an ongoing whimsical fantasy series in episodic format. Each book consists of four to five stand-alone short stories. In this first book, Snowybrook Inn receives a visit from a time traveler. Goblins trash the inn. Dragons make life hard for everyone. Mikel Fairdawn is cursed by a witch, and lastly, he searches for a piece of the moon to prove his love to a fairy. Members Reviews: A nice little collection of fantasy stories Would you try another book from Scott Reeves and/or Fred Kennedy? Sure :-) Would you listen to another book narrated by Fred Kennedy? Yes I might. Do you think Snowybrook Inn: Book One needs a follow-up book? Why or why not? There is a 2.nd book Any additional comments? If you like dragons, goblins and want an easy, cosy listen - this could be it Sphincter Clasps What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Not including the sphincter clasps. Also, the story seemed rushed. It seems like something that could have been made into a longer novel and been great, but instead is so short it isn't even good IMO. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? The reader was nice, his voice was pleasant and suited the characters. The author did a good job of invoking imagery. There were some very charming parts to the story, it wasn't all bad. Which character as performed by Fred Kennedy was your favorite? The narrator was my favourite. Aside that, the tavern owner who was the protagonist. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Snowybrook Inn: Book One? The scene with the goblin king. A different object could have been used to implicate the goblin hoard. The author does such a good job of conjuring up imagery that I was very put off and almost didn't finish listening to the book.

Sal and his companions seek the source of the flood in the legendary Hanging Mountains, hoping to head off a crisis that was put in motion a thousand years ago. As conflict erupts between two long-forgotten civilizations, the outsiders find that allies are hard to come by. Taken captive and separated, they uncover uncomfortable truths about the world and how it relates to the one that came before - our world.

Title: The Tower of Shadows Author: Drew Bowling Narrator: Paul Boehmer Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 12-08-11 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: From the boundless imagination and talented pen of a young storyteller springs the fabulous first novel in a major new epic fantasy series. Steeped in the traditions of its classic forebears, yet boldly original in its vision and sense of wonder, The Tower of Shadows swells with heroism, sings with enchantment, and carries the reader at full gallop into a marvelously wrought world of breathtaking adventure. Untold ages ago, vainglorious spirits battled with the three gods in a bid for dominion over all - only to be defeated and banished below the earth to fester in their unquenchable evil. One of these vengeful demons eventually broke free and rained bloody death upon an innocent village in the land of Ellynrie. Few survived. The Starcross brothers, mere children orphaned by their parents' slaughter, suffered very difficult fates. Corin Starcross was delivered to safety by the wizard Dale, while his brother, Cade, was abandoned to the flames that devoured their childhood home. Likewise, the mercenary Wren Tident saved his infant daughter, Kayla, from the monstrous fate that claimed her mother. When the demon retreated to its black abyss, the haunted souls left in its murderous wake did their best to carry on - save for one, who vowed retribution. When Cade Starcross reappears, he immerses himself in a secret study of the blackest arts, and a grim dance of destiny begins. His humanity withered by grief and his mind twisted by his apprenticeship to darkness, Cade seeks to use sorcery to wreak vengeance on his demon nemesis. But in order to succeed, a dagger of unearthly power wrought by the gods themselves must be found. And the blood of Cade's brother, Corin Starcross, must be spilled. Yet all of Cade's fury and magic will prove no match for the evil set free upon the earth. By any means and at all costs, the doomed vendetta must be stopped. A fledgling wizard, a tormented warrior, and a young girl burning with her father's untamed spirit must rally together as the only hope of a world poised perilously at the abyss. Critic Reviews: "Bowling stocks the mystical land of Ellynrie with the talismanic trappings of most classic questsmagic medallions, wizards, pirates and, of course, a dragonbut he brings an exciting pace and his own exuberant style to a novel suitable for all ages." (Publishers Weekly) "A fast-paced, exciting adventure that doesnt allow you to take a breath." (Terry Brooks) "Drew Bowlings The Tower of Shadows is simply elegant. This young writer doesnt waste words; he uses just enough description to engage the readers imagination, inviting the reader to participate in the creation of the imagery. Reading The Tower of Shadows was a very visual experience, for me, as if I were there, or watching a movie." (R. A. Salvatore) Members Reviews: Couldn't finish What would have made The Tower of Shadows better? Too many things to list Has The Tower of Shadows turned you off from other books in this genre? Yes How did the narrator detract from the book? Boring If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Tower of Shadows? Just couldn't hold my attention and I am very patient Any additional comments? No

In this second novel of the Faeltheon, authors Rachel DiDomenico, Chrystine Kern, Samantha Ward, and Michele Yardumian return to the Land of the Faeltheon to follow the adventures of the survivors left behind at the end of The Alliance. Will the daring and audacious plan of King Beregos be the salvation of his people? His son, Aelric, must risk all to find out, taking the remnant of his people and fleeing the shores of their beloved Land for the dangers and uncertainties of the sea. Unknown to them, Theo, Laslorn, Elrad, and the others in the hidden realm of Marliondolen are permitted to glimpse what befalls them and to pray for them. With enemies pursuing the Faeltheon remnant, and Humans on every side, their desperate search for the island of their creation is fraught with dangers and surprises, and they have no choice but to Run Before the Wind. Members Reviews: Narration is awful. It could be a good drinking game- take a drink whenever the narrator mispronounces a word. The narrator also occasionally speaks VERY LOUDLY INTO THE MIC and it feels like an attack on your eardrums. If you can get past this, you may enjoy the book.

Monster Blood Tattoo # 2 Audiobook by D. M. Cornish

Cornish Narrator: Humphrey Bower Format: Unabridged Length: 16 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 12-02-08 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 18 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The Half-Continent is becoming even more unsafe - monster attacks are on the rise, and every far-flung village or town is calling for help to fight them. Into this dangerous landscape the lamplighters must venture daily, keeping the roads safely lit for travellers. It is not a job for the faint-hearted, and every week there are reports of new theroscades. Foundling Rossamund Bookchild, sworn into the Emperor's Service as a prentice lamplighter, is finding his training at Winstermill Fortress difficult and lonely. His life is further complicated by the arrival of a young wit, determined to spite her famous mother by becoming a lowly lantern-stick. As Rossamund begins to make new friends in this sinister world, he also seems to make more enemies, finding himself pushed towards a terrible destiny, a fate beyond anything he could ever have imagined. Members Reviews: Worthy of multiple reads. A fantastic book in both theme and execution. Excellent narration too; Bower reads life into varied characters, men and women, poor and rich and different dialects too, all within Cornish's fresh expressive language. Thank goodness for Humphrey Bower I chose this series as a alternate genre to normal and not least because of the narrator, the first book was entertaining and original with a good use of character. The second, however, has shades of Harry Potter and is trying to hard to invent new names for everyday items, the use of a single location with secret passages and an ongoing battle between good and evil within. fought by two understudies supported by a well meaning head and undermined by senior individuals could easily be mistaken for Hogwarts. I hope the third book moves away from this and regains the originality of the first instalment. For those that enjoy fantasy and want another version of the Potter series, this is just the book for you. I am a devoted listener to books narrated by Humphrey Bower and would suggest to anyone that they should focus on his renditions, this series does however show his limits with many of the accents no different to those used in his Bryce Courtney books, I feel it is time he learnt some new characters to add to his repertoire. Brilliant rendition of an amazing work A serious and exciting journey across a land so marvellously realised. A real pleasure to enjoy Humphrey Bower's rendition of one of the most original writings since Pratchett created the Discworld. If you like to be delighted with glorious language, a hero that is brave and true, a heroine that knows her own mind then this is the book for you. Wonderful Story and Brilliant Narration This sequel is wonderful! In fact I would go so far as to say its better than the original. I felt the first instalment was somewhat slow in places.... but this follow up has had non stop adventure action and some wonderful new characters. From the start it has kept me on the edge of my seat! Humphrey Bower is a wonderful story teller. Complete with different character voices! Am loving every minute of it and really dont want it to end..!!! Brilliant! Book two was brilliant! Well read and a lovely development of characters and their fantastic names. At some points rosamond's earnestness drove me nuts but thrinity made up for it.

Magpies and crows, led by the vicious Slyekin and his assassin Traska, have taken control by hunting down and exterminating one gentle species after another. But in the face of slaughter, a brave robin named Kirrick leads the charge against Slyekin. Flying to every corner of Birddom, Kirrick rallies eagles, owls, and an assortment of other creatures to resist the menace. Full of glorious escapades and thrilling from first word to last, One for Sorrow, Two for Joy is an immediate fantasy classic. Members Reviews: not a kids' book One for Sorrow, Two for Joy is an OK listen for an adult. Don't let the animal characters fool you, though -- it's NOT for the kids. Too much blood, senseless cruelty, violence, and the like. If it is indeed optioned by Disney for a movie, it's going to require a lot of sanitizing. Disappointed I was enticed by the comparison to Watership Down, but was quickly let down. This story was just very flat and one-dimentional, in my opinion. The characters lacked any kind of depth, and the plot was simplistic and predictable. The narration was quite nice, though.

In the Darkness Visible Audiobook by Ted Neill

Title: In the Darkness Visible Subtitle: Elk Riders, Volume I Author: Ted Neill Narrator: Aundrea Mitchell Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 10-20-17 Publisher: Edwin B.Neill Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: In the Darkness Visible tells the story of two brothers, Sade and Vondales, and their attempt to wrest control of a portal to the world of the dead. A young village girl, Gabriella Carlyle, resists them with the help of her mentor Omanuju and his companion elk. While the brothers' lust for power corrupts them, Gabriella finds herself on a quest that leads to new friends, exotic lands, and great peril. Members Reviews: The First Part of a Great Fantasy Story Often the success of fantasy novels hinges on the author's ability to create a fictional world that we, as readers, will enjoy visiting. In this novel, Ted Neill has created a world that is refreshingly original. It doesn't feel derived from or dependent on anything I've seen before. At the same time, it is rich and intricate with fascinating legends and hidden powers. In particular, the Tower of the Dead and the ceremony performed there was both ominous and fascinating. Unfortunately, much in this world goes undiscovered -- the book ends leaving the reader feeling we've only scratched the surface. This is to be expected, I suppose, from a book clearly labeled "Volume I." The plot moves fast, with danger and adventure around every corner. It does not, however, reach any kind of resolution within this volume. This story writes a lot of checks that are not cashed by the end. It is apparently left to "Volume II" (and on) to balance the account. This is not at all uncommon, but is still a frustration to me as a reader. I'm not against a novel being an episode in a larger story, but even an episode needs a climax and resolution. I should note that there is an scene of sexualization of a 14-year-old girl that some readers may find uncomfortable. Overall, this is a well-written beginning to what I'm sure will be a great fantasy story. A journey for the ages Mr. Neil has created a fascinating new world for readers to enjoy where magic obviously exists, but is frowned upon and discouraged and even outlawed. The Elk Riders series is set in this world and In the Darkness Visible is the first in the series. You are introduced to a young girl in a backward village, where her brother is continually teased and misunderstood completely because he is some sort of idiot savant. Unfortunately, the village, and even Gabriella herself, despite being his main 'defender', see the boy as simply 'weird'. After The dead use Gabriella to reveal the danger the village is in, she is sent on a journey to rescue her village, accompanied by her brother and a very strange, but special Elk. The book alternates chapters between Gabriella & her brother's journey, and the story of Sade and Vondales, who had come to village to steal control of a portal to the dead, and how they came to be there. Ted Neil is a promising new writer and I highly recommend this book! Like no fantasy novel you've ever read before A smorgasbord of genres and themes, the first installment of the Elk Riders series seems to set the stage well for an exciting and unique twist on fantasy adventure. In a quest to prevent the conquest over darkness and death from two deceiving brothers, main characters Gabriella and Omanuju travel across treacherous lands with many companions such as a remarkable elk and Gabriella's ostracized brother.

Dye's Trilogy was a great continuation of the series. You will want to read the books in order to best understand where this books starts and how things "came to be". The women in the book have strong characters, and want to become warriors. I love how although of a fantasy nature the story is very real and you get to know and understand these characters as though they were all human. And because this book was Audible, it was also "portable" in that I could even listen while driving or doing other things. I love that. The narrator was engaging and had a very pleasant voice to listen to. The story is entertaining and engaging. There is a little for lovers of great fiction, mystery, and adventure. It's all included. I feel as the book would appeal to adults and young adults as well. Good read! Looking forward to what's next! I received an Audible version of this book from the author for my honest review which I have given. All thoughts are my own. Strong Women Characters Any additional comments? This story has strong women characters who want to be warriors incognito with the help of Adren. These women wanted to be trained to defend themselves in case their lives were in danger. At a time of crisis, I loved the fact that these women took it upon themselves to be prepared and were able to help defend their city beside men who knew nothing of their gender. In the last chapter, the men finally find out who they are. What a wonderful story! The narrator was fantastic. He used marvelous voices for all the characters and kept the story interesting. I had a few favorite voices, which he used, that I really liked.

As Gregor works to root out possible corruption at the highest levels of Church and government, he finds that he must constantly weigh his allegiance to his men, his country, and his faith. Members Reviews: An enjoyable escape Would you consider the audio edition of Gregor of Durkshire to be better than the print version? The audio version was more convenient for me, so I could listen to it in the car. What did you like best about this story? This story swept me away to another land and time. Gregor and his comrades set out on a quest to get to the bottom of a mystery. During their journey, they experience several exciting adventures. Which character as performed by J. Andrew Herbert was your favorite? Herbert did a great job playing the voices of the different men in Gregor's team. Each of these men had their own unique mannerisms so it is hard to pick a favorite. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? There were parts of the book that made me laugh, and a few very tense moments that had me worried about the characters as they faced danger and dilemmas. Any additional comments? If you enjoy medieval fantasy/adventure stories, you will enjoy this book.

A powerful shaman must stand against them. Will his magic be strong enough? Members Reviews: Sifi, fantasy, time travel, and strong family bonds all rolled up into one with this thrilling tale! I was super entertained by "The Eternal: Guardian of Light" it was definitely not what I was expecting. At first, the story starts off somewhat complex, but then as you progress into the meat of the tale things stretch out and the story unfolds before you. The Eternal, follows the life of a shaman named Auren who can move through time and space, different dimensions. He is after a group of evil being referred to as "Devians" some of which killed his wife and son, and have taken over his brother's body. As the story progresses Auren finds himself in modern times and has to quickly learn to adapt to new technologies. He makes some friends along the way, and some enemies. All the characters were well-developed and likeable, nothing seemed forced. Lozier's writing style is smooth and kept me engaged right to the end. This was definitely a book that I looked forward to its conclusion in complete anticipation, you just didn't really know how things were going to turn out for Auren in this new strange land. Lozier also allowed his different characters to narrate their own stories, which I really liked, it made for different personalities styles coming through to the reader and kept the story fresh. My final thoughts would be that I would highly recommend "The Eternal" to my family and friend, or anybody really who just loves a good "timeless" story. (pun intended) A+ Lozier, keep up the good work! Time and Space The story starts somewhat complex and then changes. It is a journey through time and space with many turns and twists which is entertaining. The author has a good style of writing. This book is fun. A perfect fantasy adventure with the goodies This book is fun. A perfect fantasy adventure with the goodies, baddies, dimensional beings, twists and turns. I started the book tired, so first I had difficulties with he first chapter, but then it all gets clear, and is wonderfully eventful story. The surroundings aren't very much described, which, I guess, depending on the reader, gives you freedom to create them yourself.It also puts emphasis on the action. Magic, rifts and a bit of romance, I could also imagine this as a film! At some point the plot was a bit too much clarified. I like fantasy and sci-fi because it gives an opportunity to evaluate human beings from an outsider's perspective.Also so in this book, one finds small humanitarian commentaries about our lifestyle, beliefs and limitations. Will read the next one. An epic masterpiece that catapults the reader through space and time... An epic masterpiece that catapults the reader through space and time on this memorable journey with Auren, as he takes on Glaxus. His mission is to seek revenge and save the woman he loves, but his story takes many twists and turns where Auren is tested to the limits before he finally meets his fate. A highly imaginative world, delivered with style.

Torn between their hatred for the half-blood king and their duty to him, two of the clans renounce their loyalty in the hopes of destroying the alliance. In the midst of negotiations, disaster strikes. A daring raid and kidnapping of Lachlan's queen forces Lachlan to confront Allarun's son, Vaurgar. Half demon and part god, Vaurgar has found a talisman so powerful that it can destroy Lachlan. Lachlan agrees to Vaurgar's terms in the hope of saving his queen and unborn son. As he sets out on a mission of rescue, a mysterious half-blooded girl offers to lead him to Vaurgar, for a price. And that price may cost him more than his life.... Members Reviews: Impressive... Again. I am an avid reader, have been for decades. It's been at least two decades since I was in my "High Fantasy" phase but I think this author is pulling me back in! I was truly satisfied with the story in the first book, I found it to be an excellent read for the genre. I had this on the kindle and was expecting another good read but honestly I was afraid the second book simile could not be as good as the first. Having just finished this book I can say my fears were unfounded. The first book had everything it needed to be a great read, this book has everything and more. Everything here is just more of what we got in the first book. More character development, more backstory for the world, more of the characters that made the first book so enjoyable. And we also get great new characters here that more than hold there own with the established ones. Because I enjoyed the book so well I am going to nit pick a little here :) I only found two things that stuck out and bothered me a bit... One was the antagonist. While written well in this book Vaurgar was none too bright in the first and it took a bit to accept that tuis fellow was really anything to worry about. IMHO he was not built up in the story up till this point to be more than his father's lackey. Perhaps some groundwork should have been laid in the first book. The second thing was I felt the alliance broke up too quickly. These groups just assumed too quickly that there was no outside forces to fear and turned out the alliance. After a thousand years if being in limbo one would expect them to be cautious and not turning in allies until they were sure there was no more to fear from the minions of the death god. Great read, goes by too quickly! Great book I had never heard of M. H. Bonham before picking up these books. I enjoy reading different authors and finding little gems like this one. I picked this up with Prophecy of Swords and The King's Champion. Runestone of Teiwas and Prophecy of Swords are the Swords of Destiny series, with The King's Champion being a prequel. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend all 3 and I'll be checking out more of her stuff. A good second book in the series I enjoyed the second book, possibly a bit more than the first. There was more character development and more of the backstory. The alliances came together and I felt they should have stayed together longer to build on this entire story. We also get great new characters in this second book. I will continue to read the works of M.H. Bonham. Fun read! I read this a couple of years back and read it again on my kindle.

Kaab and Diane, enemies bound by common interests, forge a new understanding. Micah and Rafe receive unexpected offers of employment. And Will, now the Duke Tremontaine in name only, languishes at Highcombe House, where it is hoped - by some - that he may yet recover. Members Reviews: An excellent conclusion Season one of Tremontaine is over - but don't worry: Season two has been promised for this fall. All the loose ends from this season have been tied up, but the players are already looking ahead to new schemes. Five Stars These book installments are so fun, though also intense at times! I want more ASAP. Can't wait for Season 2 (This book was sent to me through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review) This episode concludes the first season of Tremontaine. It wasn't as intense as the last one but it set the mood for the next season. For me, Tremontaine was a marvelous series. I absolutely loved this first season and I hope the next will be as good as this one or even better. The characters were well-thought and well-written, and the plot was addicting. I recommend it to fantasy lovers. The series has mystery, sword fights and romance, and the Serial Box format makes it even better. Like the old serial movies Like the old "Perils of Pauline" movie serials. you just have to know what happens next. Looking ahead to the fall, when it will start all over again One thing we've learned,If the Duchess offers you a drink of chocolate, Don't drink it!.

With the Serpentine Empire closing in, Kester finds himself on a desperate mission to recruit the aid of one of the Church's greatest enemies: a man who is often called a demon. When his ideologies are tested, Kester must choose between upholding the tenets of the Church and completing his mission. There is nothing Reis wants more than to be left alone to his research. But when the Empire comes knocking, Reis is left with no choice but to fight back. Knowing the imperials will not stop coming for him, Reis is left with one path. If his research is to continue, Marcus Serpentine must die. Together, the two may have a chance to cripple the greatest military force the world has ever known...if their conflicting ideals don't make them kill each other first. Members Reviews: 40/10 Great Fantasy Story I bought this book somewhat on a whim, but was very pleasantly surprised. The world in Lesser Evil is big, and only explained up to the knowledge you need for the most of the adventure, leaving me curious about the mystery behind what has yet to be explained. Almost every character was enthralling, albeit straightforward. One of the main female characters was pretty dull, never seeming to amount to where her potential seemed to be, but it wasn't as though she were unimportant. The character Alvis has become one of my all time favorites, I genuinely think I could read an entire book from their perspective. The perspective was handled beautifully in this book, it jumps characters multiple times a chapter usually. This gives you the perspective of the antagonists as well as the protagonists, making everyone seem human. I really hope to see a sequel! but I did not enjoy most of the writing here I think I ended up with a free version of this book from a Facebook ad, so A++ for marketing. I just couldn't get into this book. In fact, I read 2 other books while I struggled to finish Lesser Evil. The characters felt shallow and their interactions oddly forced. I had very little emotional connection with any of them. Characters felt superficially motivated to act throughout the book. It just wasn't my cup of tea. I probably couldn't write myself out of wet paper bag, but I did not enjoy most of the writing here. I did not feel engaged, and it felt disjoint at times. I doubt I will pick up the other books in the series. Solid fantasy fun I recommend 'Lesser Evil' By P. F. Davids. I did recieve a copy of this book in exchange for a review. I warned him at the time I can be brutal and refuse to white wash anything, but he asked me to go ahead anyway. So, let me say this up front: I enjoyed the book. The GOOD: The author paints a vivid and sometimes grim picture, often setting the scene in macabre tones. While violent and often bloody, he does not go to lenghts to exhagerate anything. The action is well considered and generally beleivable. The tactics are fun and inventive with enough turns to keep you interested. . . and no one is 'safe'. Let that sink in a bit. Throughout, the charactors were true to themselves. They are adequately developed and there is enough back-story worked in to support them wihout slowing the book down.

Can we take a moment to stop and admire Raven's ability to capture a firestorm in such a simple image? Wow! The story on the inside does the cover justice, and then some. Though there are new Realms introduced in this book, and the multi-verse continues to expand as we get glimpses of other species yet to come into the full picture, the world building in this installment is exquisite. Even in the midst of my reading binge, I could feel the change in presentation, which perked my reader's ears up with decided interest. The Realms that had already been introduced did not get as much attention as in the previous two books, while the new settings were built up sense by sense, layer by layer. While I was reading I could feel the heat of the Phoenix Realm, and my mind provided some unique scents for the Draconian Realm. This was a fully immersive experience! The character development slowed a little, as the cast grew and shifted. A few of the familiar figures that I would have considered main characters shifted back to the shadows, and new characters stepped forward to fill the openings. They all remained unique, which I thoroughly enjoyed. However, there was not as much personal growth for them in this installment. (That does NOT say the characters turned into stagnant cut-outs!) Even the new characters remained a well drawn sketch, but very there was not much done to flesh them out. I think it was because there was so much going on with this particular installment of the series. By the time I started this one, I knew I was fully addicted to the story, and more than a little biased. I remember a story that had a vibrant rich tapestry woven of many threads. However, the writing style did shift back to heavily plot driven again. Unlike the previous time, this one had a thick, rich, vibrant story to sustain the shift. As I mentioned earlier, there is quite a bit going on in this installment, which did create a sense of a bee's eye view of a field full of flowers - many things to stop and look at, but not much time with any one piece. Raven did come back to visit some of the (to me) more interesting pieces, but it almost felt as if the story line was a little rushed.

Title: Web of Light Subtitle: Web of Light Duology, Book 1 Author: Kyra Dune Narrator: Kyra Dune Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 11 mins Language: English Release date: 05-30-16 Publisher: Shadow Portal Books Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: When Queen Eanndra calls the leaders of the Territories and their heirs to Star Mountain for a Conclave, none of them expect to have their lives changed forever by the repercussions of a war that ended 300 years ago. With the return of the Web of Light, chaos and destruction must surely follow. Sides will be chosen. Friendships won and lost. For within every heart lies the dark seed of betrayal. Members Reviews: A masterclass in worlbuilding and creating a compelling anti-villain I enjoyed this book on multiple levels. First, it's a tale full of palace intrigue, good dialogue, sharp young characters that are coming to their own, and a smattering of daddy and mommy issues that really propels the drama forward. Seva, the main character, has a mysterious origin she's trying to find more about as the queen calls a Conclave of all the major factions and races in her realm. Her over-protective grandfather has kept her sheltered for most of her life after her mother's equally dubious death, concealing a lot of important information about who her father might be. See, Seva has wings, a characteristic of the race of "flyers" in the realm, even though her mother and grandfather are human. Naturally, she assumes her father must be a flyer, but once all the races gather for the Conclave, answers are illusive and Seva's origin becomes further obscured. Perhaps she's a chosen one meant to fulfill a prophecy, or perhaps not. In either case, as the Conclave plays out, there's an important intergenerational struggle between the young adults heirs of each faction and their older peers, often with diametrically opposed viewpoints. It all explodes when the Queen unfurls her sinister reasons for calling the Conclave, nearly at the same time as Seva stumbles into powers that might be the key to it all. If it seems very vague in review, it's only because I'm trying to keep from spoiling a real page-turner with a lot of plot twists, character development, and a rich fictional universe. That brings me to the other level on which I enjoyed this book. As a writer myself, I think Kyra Dune teaches a master class in world-building here. Any writer who writes fantasy should read this for how effortlessly she shows and not tells and puts together an intricate realm and mythology in so few pages, while also giving it breathing room to question and upend it's own "lore" pages later. I appreciated that her protagonist Seva is vulnerable but her arc is very much HER arc. She grows, not just in maturity but in power, and does so with a little help from the many new friends she gathers in the narrative. Ganamere, one of these new friends who emerges as somewhat of an Anti-Villain, is a character I continuously think about. Introduced as a torturer with mommy issues, Ganamere grows from there to someone with conflicted loyalty. He does terrible things and great things, and somehow it all seems within the confused core of a young man who doesn't seem sure about what he wants to be. Someone who feels conflicted and guilty about his past and future. Any lover of fantasy, YA or otherwise, would love this book and should pick it up. Fantastic! I was blown away by this beautifully crafted story! Kyra Dune is definitely an author I will be reading more from. I was sucked right in from page one and didn't let up even at the end.

And he will reap his justice through his Intercessors - Intercessors like siblings Constance and Hyek Revaria who follow his teachings to the letter. Whenever injustices arise, Reapings are routine, except when a mysterious letter shows up at Constance's door. Believing the letter to be their next objective, Constance opens the envelope to find that she is wrong. Instead, it appears to be from an unknown source, requesting a secret meeting with her and her brother. Skeptical but intrigued, the two of them agree to meet on a far hill near the top of the city. But when a rustic, blond-haired engineer with a shotgun and his well-built, enhanced comrade, step out of two gyrocopters, that's when Constance and Hyek realize that these two men are looking for more than just a casual conversation. Neglecting to get involved with these men, Constance and Hyek find themselves snatched into a world of gears and grease and enhancements and steam and petticoats - a world that if they aren't careful, might just cost them their lives. Members Reviews: Loved it! Pace was a bit slow which is why I gave it four stars instead of five, but it was engrossing well written with minimal typos. Excellent read!

Title: Clockwork Wings: The Chronicles of Icarus Subtitle: Collected Edition, Parts 1-5 Author: Stacy Buck, Jennifer Buck Narrator: Andy Manjuck Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 05-03-16 Publisher: Prime Evil Publishing Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Using steampunk wings created by his father, Icarus must escape the clutches of the evil king Minos, meet up with unlikely allies, and save Athens from certain destruction. Will Icarus have what it takes in this coming-of-age tale that picks up where the Greek myths left off? Or will the evil king Minos, with the help of the god of the underworld, Hades, destroy Athens and take over all of Greece? Listen to the series filled with steampunk airships battles, mighty Minotaur armies, and high flying on the wing adventure. Members Reviews: Maybe my super-high hopes are to blame for my extreme disappointment I was really, really disappointed. With story. With storytelling. With the writing. With the (apparently non-existent) editing. It seemed like a good idea, though. I gave this two stars because "hate" is too strong of a word for my feelings about this series and because, who knows, maybe one day I'll go back, re-read, and actually enjoy it. My standards have been falling. For now, though, the clunky writing and poor editing make me regret having spent money on it. Adventerous, imaginative, all around great read.. Adventurous, exciting, descriptive, well written , imaginative and a lot of violence. So if you don't like violence don't tread this.. it's mythology with its own type of twist. Which makes it very interesting. I really enjoyed icurus the young boy out to save Athens with king theseus. While king Minos is trying to bring it down with his cogwheel soldiers. Basically unkillable. When icurus gets into real trouble and his wings fail and he's sure to fall to his death he's saved by the God. Then given a powerful now which will kill anything but icurus can't bring himself to take a Hunan life so he hands it overcrowded the king.. It's gets really violent towards the end and your on the edge waiting to see what happens. Will Athens falls or will Icurus and Griffin come thru with the only thing that can save Athens. First he has to talk the gods into trusting he is man enough to use it. Can he? If you've read any of the books before this you'll like this book and the outcome. I really enjoyed how Griffon was written in to be the deaiest bird but becomes icurus's friend and helps to try and save Athens. You read and see how the young boy goes from just that to a man in no time to save his country and his father. It's very exciting, a fast paced read full of adventures that keeps you reading . I recommend this book . I really enjoyed it. If your on the fence about it, just grab it , you won't regret it. I was given a copy by the author. Who.I think has a amazing imagination.

A planet very much like our own, with different races, different climates, lands, water, and all manner of creatures from very small to very large. Kelnaria was created by a group of powerful beings called The Mystics. In our eyes, they would be Gods, but in truth, Gods are simply another race of beings with abilities that we don't understand, but for some reason, like to create worlds and creatures, and sometimes...prophecies. This world was to be filled with peace and tranquility in a land for the harmonious Mystics to love as parents, and love their children with all of the species that they created to inhabit their world. They welcomed beings from other planets to come and visit, or stay, in their creations. However, being Gods of tranquility, love, and peace, this was their first mistake in thinking that all other creatures were of the same like and kindness. Soon it will be inevitable that all will fight over dominance, even if they don't realize what it is they are fighting for. Members Reviews: Great Read Wonderful story!

I can't wait for the final installment - every time I think the authors have jacked the tension up as high as possible, they manage to raise it another notch. Five Stars Truly believable account of a maid becoming a ladyâ One of the best episodes (This book was sent to me through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review) This episode is divided in two perspectives: present day and seventeen years ago. The way the authors wrote this episode was brilliant. The reader gets bits of information throughout the episode and, only in the end do we get the confirmation of what happened to Diane and Louisa. Just like the last one, I believe this was one of the best episodes of the series. The characters keep developing and the plot is still gripping, even after 12 episodes.

Brilliant series (This book was sent to me through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review) In this episode, everyone is making preparations for the ball. The plot continues to develop wonderfully. I'm really invested in the characters and I just want to keep reading the series until the end. I love that we get to see different realities from different characters. There's a big array of settings and characters that keep the episodes rolling smoothly. I am truly enjoying this series and I hope I'll get to read the next episode soon.

Unfortunately, the Demon King wants to destroy the world, and the Goddess wants to enslave everyone in it! With the aid of a talking teddy bear, a grumpy demon dog, and a unicorn princess who wants to marry him, Gestalt embarks on a journey to stop the Goddess' sinister plot and find a way to get rid of the Demon King - yet, he must also rely on the dark power of the Demon King in order to stand a chance against the powerful minions of the Goddess. Can Gestalt resist against the corrupting temptations of the Demon King and save the world, rather than destroy it? Is it even possible for a mere human to stand up against the power of a goddess? Members Reviews: Fun book What did you love best about Pandemonia Chronicles: DAWN? I really liked the narration of this book. The narrator did a great job giving all the characters different voices to suit their personalities. It made the book a lot of fun to listen too. It also made the characters very relatable. Would you recommend Pandemonia Chronicles: DAWN to your friends? Why or why not? Yes. I think that the friends who enjoy fantasy books would like it. Which scene was your favorite? The scene where Gestalt and his friends are captured by the munchkins. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? No I often don't have time to listen to books in one sitting. Any additional comments? I liked the book but I felt that the ending was unfinished. Does Gestalt just stay in the demon world? Does he ever go back to his world? What happens with Ennui? I felt like it just kind of stopped rather than had a proper ending.

At the order of his king, Vyder must undertake his most dangerous mission yet - a mission from which he may never return. If he is successful, it might just be enough to alleviate war tearing the kingdom apart. The prospect of failure is not worth considering. Note: This is a novelette and prequel to the upcoming Vyder Ironstone Saga. Members Reviews: Gimme more! *Book source ~ Free on Amazon Vyder Ironstone is a big highlander, rich and successful at what he does. Did I mention heâs an assassin? Yeah. Heâs not someone you want coming after you. When the Prince is abducted and the King hires Vyder to retrieve him he knows this may be the one job that is too much for him. However, he does so love a challenge. More, more, more. I want more of Vyder Ironstone. I love the world, the writing and most of all, Vyder. Heâs fascinating and I am looking forward to continuing with him on his mission. My only complaint is the ending to this short intro. It stopped abruptly, like climbing a hill and finding a 100â drop as soon as you crest the top. Ending it right before the confrontation or after would have much more acceptable to me, but then abrupt stops are one of my biggest pet peeves. Call me old-fashioned, but every story, no matter how short, should have a beginning, middle and end. Yeah, so not a fan of cliffhangers. Other than that, I loved this tale. Great teaser for the series Great teaser for the series. Reminds me of old school fantasy like Conan or Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser, looking forward to reading more! Badass assassin with a conscience Laconic assassin with a tortured history works to his own rules. An interesting character, set up for an (almost) impossible mission. Looking forward to the next book. good winter read in WI. Nothing better than a good book to read on a cold winter day!!!! This was it!! But having to wait for the next one in the series is always difficult.. What happens next??????? WAITING !!!! Incomplete ending,waiting for next part

As Powerhouse, Dave Johnson has become a local legend in Seattle, but choruses of voices advise him that he's wasting his time defending the Emerald City. He's urged to take on more ambitious goals, like defending New York, being a full-time comic book executive, or becoming a bat-breaking evangelist. These questions are pushed into the background when Powerhouse is confronted with an unprecedented crime wave launched by the interdimensional warlord Varlock as part of his effort to help King Bel conquer the Earth. At the same time, Naomi Johnson secretly possesses her husband's superpowers. When her work slows down during the summer, the Johnson children depart to summer camp, and Dave is never home due to the crime wave, she assumes a new identity in Wyoming as Marie Dubois and becomes a vigilante known as Justice Woman. In the course of this, she confronts her unfulfilled hopes and dreams - and her unresolved anger. While Powerhouse is pushed to the point of physical and mental collapse by Varlock's scheme, Naomi has to decide whether she'll go back to her old life or chart a new course. How she decides will affect her, her family, and the entire world.

One of pulpdom's all-time favorite heroes, Jim Anthony, Super Detective, in three fast-paced action adventures. From the dense, hot jungles of Guatemala to the dark alleys of New York City, Jim Anthony and his associates battle the forces of evil and injustice. Includes: Dawn of the Purple Hoods by Robert E. Kennedy; Death Walks Behind You by Andrew Salmon; Curse of the Red Jaguar by B.C. Bell; and A Spicy Savage by Norman Hamilton. Members Reviews: New stories of this lesser known Doc Savage clone For those not familiar, Jim Anthony was a sort-of Doc Savage clone published by Trojan/Culture publications, a publisher of the "spicy" pulps of sort-of soft porn. Strangely enough, it was owned by the same guy who owned DC Comics. Quite honestly, as a long-time pulp fan, I only learned of Jim Anthony in recent years. Jim Anthony was 'half-indian, half-irish, and all American'. More emotional then Doc, he was a physical and mental marvel. He had a penthouse in the "Waldorf-Anthony" hotel he owned, had a secret mansion in the Catskills called "The Tepee", another resort in an oasis in the American Southwest called "The Pueblo". He was assisted by a small group of people include Tom Gentry, pilot and right-hand man; Mephito, his shaman grandfather; his butler, and Dolores, the daughter of a US Senator and his fiance. His stories ran about 24 stories. For the first 10 or so, he was 'super Jim Anthony', where he fought against science-ficional menaces. After that, he was sort of 'de-powered' and lost most of his aides except for Tom. He was turned into more of a hard-boiled detective. He would soon be written by the authors' of Trojan's Dan Turner, Hollywood Detective. At the begining he was written by Victor Rousseau. Its known he wrote the first 3 and prehaps the others before the others took over. This volume from Airship 27, has 3 new stories of Jim Anthony. All are great. [more to come soon] Classic Pulp Star Returns Andrew Salmon, Erwin K.Roberts and B.C.Bell have written three fast paced, action adventure tales starring one of pulpdom's most memorable heroes, Jim Anthony. Half Comanche, half Irish and All American. Book sports a great cover by DC artist Chad Hardin, with marvelous interior spot illos by Pedro Cruz. These are terrific new tales done in the style of the original dime thrillers.

Title: Heart of the Sun Subtitle: The Hands of War Book 1 Author: Jennifer Melzer Narrator: New Fiction Writers Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 2 mins Language: English Release date: 11-19-15 Publisher: Jennifer Melzer Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Fatally wounded in a harrowing battle against Enoch Lousse and the king's Black Guard, Taven Grimmbane will die without a healer. Commander of the Argonel, Taven is the driving force behind the elven resistance. Without him, the last of the free elves will fall. A healer's hands restore life, even to those undeserving - that's what Helti's grandmother taught her. Taken captive by the Argonel and forced to heal their dying commander, a human healer holds the life of one of the most brutal killers of men in her hands, just as he holds hers. Helti wishes she could hate him for the things he's done to her people, but she embraced Taven's soul when she brought him back from the veil between life and death, and she knows there is beauty yet within. A single act of mercy could turn the tides of war. A healer's compassion could touch the heart of a monster who doesn't believe he deserves peace or redemption. If the sun could descend from his throne to give his heart to a human girl, surely an elf can find it in himself to love outside his race...even if only for a little while. Members Reviews: Heart of Gold. Jennifer Melzer has a gift for writing. This thing cannot be denied. Particularly, she as a gift for writing the kind of romance that makes you wish you were one of the characters in the story just so you could feel the thing for a little while. Heart of the Sun is as beautiful as it is heartbreaking. It's just long enough to make you want more by the time you reach the end and hope that all of your wanting will not be in vain, because an author can't be that cruel, right? Heart of the Sun is the story of Helti and Taven, two people part of very different races constantly at war for past atrocities dealt to both sides by each other. It's a 'Beauty and the Beast' story with elves and humans. It's chock full of fantasy, brutality, and just a tiny hint of romance that blooms with each page turned.

There are a couple of new characters introduced which promise to be just as intriguing as the others. The narrator, P. J. Morgan once again was excellent in her narration. Her narration was consistent with the first book. I loved her rhythm for reading and expressive voice. When I hear P. J. Morgan narrate I hear Riley she has a knack for taking on the character and wearing her proudly. There were no issues with production. I appreciate the clearness of the audio book.

Pale Rider: Zombies Versus Dinosaurs Magic Factory Summer Sword Frankenstein: IT Support (bonus) Members Reviews: Three Imaginative and Original Novellas Would you consider the audio edition of Paperbackward Story Bundle: Pale Rider, Magic Factory, and Summer Sword to be better than the print version? I didn't get the print version, but I had no trouble listening to and understanding the audio version. Michael C. Gwynne ,Michael Gilboe and Jack Nolan are excellent narrators, each perfectly suited to the story they narrated. What was one of the most memorable moments of Paperbackward Story Bundle: Pale Rider, Magic Factory, and Summer Sword? Actually, what made them memorable was the very original nature of each story, and that three very different readers narrated them. The tone was post apocalyptic in the first, whimsical in the second, and very magical in the third. The narrators did a good job conveying the moods. What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? The three very different readers that narrated them. The tone was post apocalyptic in the first, whimsical in the second, and very magical in the third. The narrators did a good job conveying the moods. The first reader reminded me of the late great Frank Muller, the second was kind of like a Harry Potter reader and the third conveyed the magical interaction with wind vespers. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I actually listened to each story individually to accommodate the change in mood for each one. Any additional comments? My main though was that these stories were too short! That they were so rich in content, so imaginative and filled with interesting characters, each one could have been expanded into a complete novel. I'm hoping James Livingood plans on adding to the complex and varried worlds he has created. I was given a copy for review, but I would gladly buy the next thing he writes. Paperbackward 3 hours of fun and fantasy narrated nicely by Michael C. Gwynne, Michael Gilboe, Jack Nolan.My favorite was The Magic Factory.I was given this book free of charge for an honest review. great afternoon of listening Any additional comments? Pale Rider - Two things stand out for me after listening to Pale Rider. One, the way my mind slipped through the story. For instance, some descriptions were spot on and managed to grab my imagination with a ruthless clarity. But, most just seemed to slip through my head like a silk thread through silk fabric and nothing to hold it there. Second (and my favorite), is the sound of Michael Gwynnes voice. I tend to slide narrators into certain personal labels (e.g. those that pierce with just the right tone to avoid annoyance yet keep me awake, aware and focused; those female voices that manage to whine without putting me completely off; male voices that transform seamlessly between characters that are so differentiated as to make me check that there is actually only one narrator, etc.). These are my own personal labels and I share my opinion only when I think I can describe the essence of the voice in a way that would help others choose to listen or not to listen. Michael Gwynne has a voice that is like salted caramel, just enough texture to avoid the smoothness that gathers sleep around you.

Dealing with corrupt officials... Struggling to understand the truth... They must reveal the truth in time, or all will be lost! Imagine living in two worlds at the same time - the physical one around you and another one inside you that no one else can see. Once these valley dwellers go through their process of "Understanding", they begin an unseen life in their hearts, where anything can happen. Some hearts dwell in cozy, peaceful places while others are assaulted by fearsome powers. Like their ancestors before them, these people remain locked away in their secret valley for 400 years, with none going in or out. The abundant rocks inside provide natural light and heat as well as workable metals and building materials, while a spring waters their crops and herds. But the people know their hearts are susceptible to a dark power that seeks to destroy them. To keep their hearts safe, they rely on their leaders, who prohibit leaving the fortification or hearing unaccepted music, assuring the people they will remain safe if they follow the way their ancestors have taken. When Gwenla led the original group to safety, she also foresaw the future. Unable to safely pass on what she knew before she died, Gwenla wrote down her knowledge in riddles so that only those who sought the truth would understand. Julyiah's adventurous heart wants to find Gwenla's secrets and understand them, but when pressing to know the truth, Julyiah sees wonderful places outside the walls and hears forbidden music disrupting her world and relationships. In spite of several obstructions and evil forces trying to stop her, Julyiah discovers the truth and realizes she alone has the answer that will free the valley from deception. Members Reviews: Excellent Worldbuilding This was an enjoyable story in an interesting setting. I felt that parts of it could have been fleshed out or explained better, but the excellent worldbuilding made up for that. Recommended for teen fantasy fans. Iâm a nonfiction and historical fiction sort and always hesitant to experiment but am so happy that I did I decided to expand my monotonous selections of genre and chose The Secrets of Gwenla to bring on a cruise. Iâm a nonfiction and historical fiction sort and always hesitant to experiment but am so happy that I did. Laurie Pennerâs fantasy was engaging, and I looked forward to every opportunity to read about Julyiah and Delwynâs adventures. I enjoyed snuggling up to my Kindle in various places around the ship to catch another chapter whenever I could. The first thing I discovered was that I really enjoyed the storyline and the characters were lovable and endearing. My readerâs mind is challenged by allegory and at first was wondering if I was missing something, but then I decided that it was about so many things: the ministry of the Holy Spirit, spiritual warfare, Old Testament characters, etc. I appreciated the purity of the characters and their loving commitment to one another. The most significant takeaway was the importance of digging deeply and looking for a new and real meaning hidden in institutions or traditions that most people blindly accept.

Carter Format: Unabridged Length: 10 mins Language: English Release date: 06-09-15 Publisher: Katmoran Publications Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Astarte, grew up an orphan and she had no recollection of ever having known her mother. From childhood, she could hear the silver ringing of the music of the fairies as they twirled in the moonlight below the caves. She saw them dancing, the fireflies glittering in and around them, adding a shimmer of gold in the moonlight. Why could no one else see them? What made Astarte different than the other children of the tribe? Why did discontent fill her soul at the idea of moving and leaving the fairies behind? Why did the idea that she would be required to marry into one of the other tribes when she reached her majority scare her so much?

Cosby Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 06-09-15 Publisher: Cosby Media Productions Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: What you choose becomes you. Against everything he had known as truth, William has made the choice to protect Sydney from the forces seeking to destroy her. Just as these two Star-Crossed lovers are beginning to explore their relationship and search for answers to the mysteries of Sydney's existence, she advances to the next stage of her Star-child evolution - Supernova. She struggles not only to control her new powers, but also the emotions for her new love. William seeks to find the truth behind Sydney's erratic behavior, while overcoming the new threat headed to Earth to destroy them. With new villains and old allies on the horizon, and chaos brewing on William's home world, will self-sacrifice prove to be the only way for him to achieve victory and defend his love, or is there another way? Members Reviews: Love is patient.... Love is tested I liked the overall storyline but dislike how childish the protagonists often act.... Although, they are still in high-school and with surging hormones and changes I understand it. I was a little confused about the ending. It was not what I was expecting, and a little sad about how it happened (don't want to spoil here). The vocal recording is very clear without any background noises. Occasionally I feel there is the wrong emotion used by the author based on characters words but is well done.

Doch einmal mehr steht ihre Reise unter keinem guten Stern, denn eine geheimnisvolle Seuche hat das Dorf Ristan heimgesucht: Der rote Tod... ©2010 Holysoft Studios Ltd / Hearoic (P)2010 Holysoft Studios Ltd / Hearoic

Sie kümmert sich um die Neuankömmlinge der Akademie, und es macht ihr Spaß, für sie in der realen Welt einkaufen zu gehen. Während sie durch Berlin fliegt, dient sie nebenher einigen Menschen als "guter Engel", und eigentlich könnte alles für immer so bleiben, wie es ist. Inzwischen ist sie als Äther-Begabte den echten Engeln fast ähnlicher als den Menschen. Sie braucht weder Schlaf noch Essen noch Trinken, aber vor allem fühlt sie sich durch ihre Abwendung von den sinnlichen Seiten des Menschseins gut geschützt vor dem Auf und Ab der Liebe. Allerdings hat sich Neve da gewaltig getäuscht. In Wahrheit brodelt die Vergangenheit in ihr wie ein versteckter Vulkan. Und genauso wohnt in ihr ein leidenschaftliches Herz, das wieder vor Aufregung schlagen will. Als eine geheimnisvolle Melodie Neve auf einem ihrer Berlin-Besuche in ein altes Haus lockt, ahnt sie nicht, dass dort die Liebe auf sie lauert, um mit ihr gnadenlos Achterbahn zu fahren. Während Neve mit ihren vielen neuen Gefühlen und dem Umstand ringt, immer menschlicher zu werden, gehen seltsame Dinge in der magischen Welt vor. Nach und nach zeigt sich, dass das Haus nicht nur Neves Schicksal beeinflusst.

These books are written very well, but the narration still does not do credit to the books, I think theses ebooks should be read buy a woman. A male narrator just doesn't bring the ebooks to life.

Chandler Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 12-23-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Hallucination... or time travel? One man alone against the cosmos, creating his own reality! Exiled on Mars! Johnsmith Biberkopf escapes from a penal colony on the Red Planet and learns that his hallucinations are real - space and time can be manipulated. Kidnapped by Vikings who have sailed through the continua since ancient times, Johnsmith embarks on an epic adventure, an infinite journey through the multiverse. Facing alien menaces, he learns the terrifying truth about the power of illusion. Members Reviews: Turning Plot, but No Real Point Although the plot turns unexpectedly a number of times, and the author seems to be on the verge of making interesting comments about drugs, relationships, war, and scholarship, ultimately this isn't worth reading. Unfortunately, the book jacket, the reviews and the author give away the main innovation, so by the time you (finally) get there, it's no surprise. To little Mars and norsemen, to much drug trip This book is worth reading, but it's verry shallow as far as it's charactors go. The good guy wears a white hat sort of thing. The main charactor Johnsmith (all one word) is a divorced schholar of old english. He looses his job, the right to seen his son, and he starts using drugs. These aren't just ordinary drugs though. They're modern techno-drugs that make you halucinate in a pre-programmed way. Because not having a job is a crime in this future Johnsmith figures he'll be sent off to to the moon instead he goes to mars and manufactures drugs for the prisoners on the moon. He fights rebels on Mars (Where'd they come from? ) and discovers the truth behind his drug induced halucinations. The ending seemed to me to be a wrap it up in 5 minutes attempt that kind of worked. The book is on the high side of mediocrity. It's like Sullivan tried to blend Total Recal with Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and pulled off a halfway decent job.

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The Final Showdown. The threat to Wicked and to Palisor forces Briony into the inevitable, an alliance with Josh, the Werewolf King. As Josh's role becomes clearer in Palisor, and the people are demanding higher security, Briony is forced to make the most important decision in her life. The worlds of the Wicked and Palisor collide in this stunning conclusion to the Wicked Woods series. Members Reviews: Amazing End to an Amazing Series This was an amazing end to this wonderful series. There was non-stop action (much more than any other in the series), and every scene was filled with heartbreaking, hold-your-breath tension. Would Kevin find a way back to Breena? Would Palisor overcome the seemingly insurmountable obstacle that they were facing? And will Fallon become human? All of these questions are answered, and I was unbelievably happy with how everything worked out in the end. Ms. Gow has written an amazing series, and I was sad to see it end. However, I know that I will reread this series many many times. The world Ms. Gow had created is so unique and original, and I applaud her for that. I'm excited to read the spin-off, because it features a personal favorite, and sounds exciting. I'm sure it will be absolutely thrilling! Amazing Series The wicked woods series is definitely one worth checking out. So many different paranormal beings all introduced and woven together so well. What a great series! Good book. I would recommend this book/author to anyone interested this subject. Keeps your interest. It's been a while since I read it but would recommend to someone interested in this subject. Excellent Ending and Great Prequel I just finished this book and it was an excellent ending to the wicked woods series; while at the same time, an excellent prequel to the new series to follow. I was happy to see that the book focused on the battle to protect wicked woods and Palisor and not which love interest the main character chooses. The choice made was the best choice and I was glad to see that as well. This is a good series for those who like were-wolves, vampires and fairies. LOVE THIS SERIES iI started reading this series on my daughters kindle. When I got my kindle fire, just had to get this book. I didnt disapoint. Love this book.

In the end, however, there is only one choice to be made, and Nadon must decide what matters to him most-survival or victory. Members Reviews: Even better than the first book! Would you consider the audio edition of Emityon: Evolve to be better than the print version? Yes and no, it is much more convenient so I can listen to it in the car, but I always like the ability to imagine my own words and inflections. What other book might you compare Emityon: Evolve to and why? Any epic book in the middle of a series. It follows the traditional epic story line but with better character development than most I have read. What does Lee Strayer bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? He is creative and has a natural voice for narration. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? Definitely, "The next Lord of the Rings Epic is Here!" Any additional comments? Read/ listen to the whole series!

Critic Reviews: "Douglas knows his SF." (Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: A Good Listen Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes and the storey line was OK but once I got into it. What was one of the most memorable moments of Earth Strike? After the battle with the Sh'daar and lLieutenant Grays great discovery by shooting his Anti- ship Missile Sand Caster rockets at the speed of light at the oncoming fleet. Have you listened to any of Nick Sullivans other performances? How does this one compare? Nick Sullivan makes this storey come to life, I do not think anyone else could have pulled it off, I look for books that Nick is narrating because he only does good stories and I have listed to other books by other Authors and it puts me off them when the narration is poor!! If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? Time is Running Out for Man Any additional comments? Please keep the Storyline going, don't take to long before getting the follow on books into audible. Absolute rubbish A sci fi book with no ideas, characters or coherent story line. A twelve year old child could have come up with something more interesting Humanity under attack, not knowing why What did you like most about Earth Strike? Thorough insight into what our High Tech future might look like and how it affect human interaction and society. Who was your favorite character and why? all characters play their part Which character as performed by Nick Sullivan was your favourite? great narration by Nick Sullivan, again no favourites Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I have giggled often when listening to exchanges between the military personell Slow Burn Would you listen to Earth Strike again? Why? Yes. Initially this was somewhat of a 'slow burn' but as the plot unfolded I found myself becoming more engaged with the story and the characters.

United with his band of heroes, and Calan his love, Adacon feels as though nothing can stand against the power of righteousness any longer: They will travel home and destroy the last remnant of darkness. As doom covers the world, a new star appears in the sky, growing larger each night. The dwarves claim that the Prophecy of the Key is at hand - that the departed race has returned.

Is there any hero with might enough to stand against Vesleathren? Can anyone stop the departed race before the prophecy is fulfilled? Will Adacon's love endure? Members Reviews: A great sequel to a wonderful series. This book is an excellent follow up to the first book (Darkin : A Journey East.) A lot of questions the first book left me with were answered in this book. The main characters in the first book are further developed and I literally began to care about the characters and what happened to them. In addition, a lot of new characters are introduced and there are quite a few interesting plot twist that leave you wanting more. There is more action, more romance, more magic and more characters. If you enjoyed the first book, this book is a must buy. You will not be disappointed. =====THE REST OF THIS REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS, IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE SECOND BOOK PLEASE STOP HERE AND BUY THIS BOOK!===== ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *SPOILERS!!* - - - I really enjoyed the sci-fi elements that were added to this book. I think this gives a whole new perspective to Darkin. I also loved how the "Aliens" leave a lot of questions, and it leaves me wondering what will happen to them and the galaxy they are attempting to save, and what will happen when and if they return to Darkin. This by itself leaves me wanting to read the third book. As far as character progression goes, this book does a fantastic job developing Adacon. Its been a fun adventure following him from a slave on the farm of Grelion to a Welsprin. Adacon truly is an awesome hero, and a character I found myself caring about a lot. My favorite character in the series is Remtall. My favorite scenes from this book is in the Gear Chambers and obtaining the Rod of the Gorge. Remtall's courage is truly inspiring and his character is so deep. I also enjoy his relationship with Ulpo and think they make a perfect team. I felt his pain when he confronted Grelion and when he broke down, I found goosebumps all over my body. The scene was very powerful and made me understand Remtall just that much more. Remtall is a very memorable character and one of my favorites from any fantasy series. This book introduces quite a few new characters and adds quite a bit more depth into the world of Darkin. Although I did enjoy just following a few characters in the first book, the second book does make Darkin feel a lot bigger and richer. and just as the first book left me wanting more, the second book is no different.

But she finds that to defeat her enemies, she must break the cycle of violence, not continue it. As Cara's mother's vision of destiny is fulfilled, the wonderful follows the terrible, and a quest for revenge becomes a quest for eternal life. Members Reviews: Epic mythological fantasy Book Info: Genre: Fantasy (Epic/Mythological) Reading Level: Adult Recommended for: fans of mythology, epic fantasy Trigger Warnings: torture, mutilation, killing, mass murder, slavery, murder of children, cannibalism Animal Abuse: Several dogs are killed My Thoughts: This book was originally released in 1986, and was re-released earlier this year by ChiZine. This is a very strange story, designed in homage to both the creation mythology of the Bible and of the epic of Gilgamesh, among other things. It's long-term, sweeping nature is sometimes a bit hard to follow, but in the end, it is very much worth it. I do recommend that if you read this book, you take the time to focus and concentrate on the story. I read most of it in short bits and pieces and that made it a bit hard to follow. While there wasn't a lot of it, I really liked the part of the book written from Galo's point of view. Everything to him is strange, including pain and water and cold and light. It was fascinating, and I can guess that the section was short due to the very strangeness that the author had to inhabit to write it. There is plenty of bitter with a bit of sweet. The Wordy Beast (which I think was a griffin) was really neat. There is a great deal of metaphor is vagueness in this, which leaves the reader to interpret things as she likes. I think a lot of people will enjoy this, especially if they like mythology and epic fantasy. Disclosure: I received a copy of this book from ChiZine in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. Synopsis: To defeat her enemies . . . she must make them immortal. Only men are allowed into the wells of vision. Caraâs mother defies this edict and is killed, but not before returning with a vision of terrible and wonderful things that are to come . . . and all because of five-year-old Cara. Years later, evil destroys the rest of Caraâs family. In a rage, Cara uses magic to transform herself into a male warrior. But she finds that to defeat her enemies, she must break the cycle of violence, not continue it. As Caraâs motherâs vision of destiny is fulfilled, the wonderful follows the terrible, and a quest for revenge becomes a quest for eternal life.

Title: Shadowmasque Subtitle: Shadowkings, Book 3 Author: Michael Cobley Narrator: Philip Rose Format: Unabridged Length: 18 hrs and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 05-13-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Emperor Magramon is dead and his only son, Ilgarion, will finally ascend to the Khatrimantine throne, guided by the Archmage Tangaroth and protected by the Iron Guard. But dark undercurrents are moving beneath the surface of life in Sejeend, the imperial capital, and the agents of an old and malign power are plotting and waiting. Only the Order of Watchers, a band of renegade mages, has any inkling of what is afoot and their investigations lead to grotesque and violent confrontations. Critic Reviews: "... unconventional high fantasy trilogy... [Cobley] has taken traditional sword and sorcery to some new and perhaps uncomfortable places... Once again Mike has succeeded in producing an unusually dark and claustrophobic piece of work, though it is a lot less bleak than its predecessors. It is also a lot less convoluted with the battle lines more clearly drawn." (Infinity Plus) "[Cobley] drew the characters with verve and style, encouraging the reader to participate in the story he was unfolding. The plot was complex but clearly spun out, providing tantalising teasers at the end of each episode, which made me want to skip ahead to the next time that particular thread was picked up and woven. In my opinion, a clear winner for Michael Cobley." (SF Crowsnest) "There is plenty here to keep any fans of high fantasy happy. The familiar elements are here, but don't worry about them feeling borrowed or contrived. Cobley has presented his own fantasy world and characters, well rounded, fully explored and absorbing." (Eternal Night) "Cobley seems to have captured much of the dark bent of [Robert E.] Howard in the Shadowkings series." (Trashotron) Members Reviews: Horrible copy editing Missing words and missing letters on virtually every page! Hat for hate, thi for this, one for hone, and on and on. Missing nouns and verbs. And the author does not know proper use of which and that.

Ever since the Quantum Bomb of 2015 things have been different; the dimensions have fused and suddenly our world is accessible to elves, demons, ghosts and elementals and their worlds are open to us. Things have been different for Special Agent Lila Black too: Tortured and magic-scarred by elves, rebuilt by humans into a half-robot, part-AI, nuclear-fueled walking arsenal, and carrying the essence of a dead elfin necromancer in her chest, sometimes she has trouble figuring out who she is. And a mission to the world of the fae may not help her work it out. The fae are beautiful, glamorous, exotic, and talented. Their inventions make food taste better, make beer divine, and bring sparkle and mischief to the world but that's only the surface. And Lila is being sent in at the deep end, to the deepest, darkest levels of Faerie: On the primal level, nothing about the fae is glamorous at all. In a winter-locked, raw, and primitive world, Lila has to deal with the fae at their most basic levels, as tricksters and dealmakers and the only deals worth making are bloody ones. If Lila's quest is to succeed, and if she is ever to escape Faerie, the right question must be asked, the right sacrifice must be made, and the right quarry must be hunted down on the winter solstice. All of which is difficult, when the only aides Lila brought to Faerie are her friends... Critic Reviews: "... sparkles in this final section, suddenly sprouting a cleverly nuanced plot... " (Publishers Weekly)"Fast paced, humorous and a bit convoluted, Robson continues building action packed interdimensional worlds... another exciting addition to the series." (MonstersAndCritics)"... tackles the elusive world of Faerie, a place far from the stereotypes of legends. Robson's mercurial style suits her quick-witted heroine in a fantasy/sf adventure that is a good addition to most fantasy or sf collections." (Library Journal)"The work of a smart and sexy novelist having smart and sexy fun." (Locus)

As word of the Hunters demise spread throughout the land, those most ancient and revered began to fade from the world, flickering in and out of existence like falling stars. The darkness separating the two kingdoms has receded back into the Darknjan Wald, but it lingers on the border - a forever reminder of everything theyve lost. When an unexpected gift arrives on the doorstep of the Historian, Sylvanus, hope sparks anew as the fading council realizes the ancient prophecies were misread. Hope has not died, it has only just been born, and to keep him safe they must hide the child in the Upland the same way they once hid his mother. Winterborn is a novelette that takes place between the events in The Goblin Market and Jack in the Green. Members Reviews: Great teaser while we wait for Jack the Green Many, many eons ago, I reviews a wonderful tale entitled The Goblin Market. I absolutely adored the world created by Ms Melzer and have anxiously been waiting for the next book in the series, Jack the Green. Somehow, I missed the release of Winterborn, which is a novelette that falls between The Goblin Market and Jack the Green. As with most tales that one truly loves, my biggest âcomplaintâ was the length. It simply wasnât long enough. I loved the characters, the direction the story is taking and the description used while setting up the scenes, so, of course, I am now even more anxious for Jack the Green. I know I am being rather vague, but, as with a short story, a novelette simply is too short a form to give away too much detail other than what the synopsis gives. Just trust me when I say, Winterborn is definitely a fantastic teaser, while we waitâand waitâ.and wait for Jack the Green to be finished (Catch the hint here Jennifer? I know youâre busy, Iâm only teasingâ.sorta) Enough to leave you wanting more... The problem with novellas like this one is that you want them to be full-length books. I picked this up as soon as I finished with Goblin Market, and my only disappointment came from the page numbers. It's a problem when you really, really, REALLY want to know what happens next and the page numbers prove far too short. Winterborn picks up where Goblin Market left off. Meredith is an ice queen, there in the Goblin Kingdom, but not present and certainly not happy. Every night she walks the banks of the Nether Lake, looking for the love that she's lost. Things change when she gives birth to a son. The Goblin King is not one to welcome an interloper into his kingdom, and Meredith has to make a decision that could affect worlds. As richly imagined as the first, Winterborn is a tie in for the series, long enough to sate, but short enough to keep you wanting more. Waiting..... Ok.worst part of a page turner is coming abruptly to the last page! Ready for the next part anytime now!

Before Bure, Wras, and Targ were caught for the murders of eight people, their killing spree had damaged a delicate balance that the sages fear they can't rectify. With too few sages alive, the planet is beginning to slide back to a primordial state! Earthquakes and storms rock their world as the sages frantically search for answers to fix the problem before they and the planet are destroyed. But Bure did more than just destabilize the planet. He planted the thought amongst the people that "witches" were the cause of the quakes and bad weather. The frightened citizenry grasp onto the misguided idea - believing that it gives them a way to end the planets upheaval and the attacks on innocent people increase. Can Erin and the sages reweave what Bure has unraveled? Members Reviews: Holly does it again! This book is unique in the Sage chronicles, as it continues the story of the 3rd book, rather than introducing a new character. In a way this made it more engaging as one has developed empathy toward the characters already. Beautiful lessons in teamwork & the true familial connection we ALL share on this planet! Terrific! Barbo has done it again! Believable characters, fast-moving plot, twists and turns that keep the reader involved. Couldn't put it down till I'd finished it. I hope there is another book in this series! I have truly enjoyed reading Holly's book and this one is no exception I have truly enjoyed reading Holly's book and this one is no exception. She has created a wonderful world filled with believable and interesting characters, both human and animal. I highly recommend it! Great series This is a great read. I would recommend this entire series to anyone, young or old. It kept me totally enthralled. I certainly enjoyed it. Excellent writing. The Reweaving by Holly Barbo - ebook Part of a series but I have not read all the books yet and this worked well as a standalone book. I became invested in these characters and could not wait to find out what happened to them and their world. I stayed up very late reading this excellent story. I have read one other of Holly Barbo's books and missed the two in the middle. I have them and will definitely read them as soon as I can. This is just a wonderful story. I love the world Holly has created and her characters are a great mix of people with different goals, talents and needs. As an animal lover, I especially enjoy how Holly portrays the animals in her stories. I also give her kudos for her attention to how people treat others as well as how people treat the environment in which they live. Everything is a balance and Holly's world realizes the importance of balance. I highly recommend this story to any and all fantasy fans.

Ensley Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Swapping her mantle of ultimate celestial power for the miraculous blessing of a beloved child, Jenevier no longer wields the ethereal mask of Life and Death. Trading Netherhood for Motherhood, her quiet days are now filled with the blissful thoughts of a fairytale family and an unmatched joy...the likes of which she never dreamed possible. The fractured love she shares with Varick has stood firm through the test of the ages. They have walked through the fires together and emerged, not unscathed, but gloriously scarred... Their trials and pain have only managed to strengthen their eternal bond. But when Fate rolls the dice once more, will the former Angel of Death be strong enough to meet the awesome challenge? Will she be able to see through the debilitating pain of loss, wipe away the bitter tears of betrayal, and grasp the incredible Blessing awaiting her? Or has extreme adversity left her too shattered and broken to fight back? Continue along with this epic tale of blood and battle amongst the Otherworld's Blessed and Damned in the series third installment of J. K. Ensley's A Dance with Destiny: Enthroned by Amethysts. Members Reviews: A thoroughly enjoyable fantasy Enthroned by Amethysts is the most engrossing book I have read this year. I could not put it down. Jennifer has blended the mythology of many Terran cultures into a seamless whole. She has created an entire universe of magical beings whose lives seem completely familiar. The âDance with Destinyâ series has more plot twists than I can count, yet they are not an artificial literary device but rather a natural result of the unfolding of events in the heroine Jenevier's life. Jenevier's only character flaw is that she loves too much and too completely. She often loves recklessly to her own destruction. The story is fantasy (with plenty of romance) but like mythology and science fiction the book shines a spotlight on the human condition and causes the reader to examine his or her actions and the effect that those actions have on the lives of the people around them. I have already begun reading book 4, Destroyed by Onyx and I cannot wait to learn what happens next! Best Yet! 'Enthroned By Amethysts' is spellbinding! This is the best book yet in the Dance With Destiny series! J K Ensley has again breathed life into the world of finite humanity entwined with the infinity of fantastical and spiritual realms. The third book in the series introduces a new level of excitement when the wrathful waves of revenge for love lost ripple throughout the whole of the universe. New characters entrance and enamour. Passionate and beautiful, raw and tragic. Read with an open heart! Poignant and astonishing! J.K. Ensley continues to amaze Book three has the most unpredictable twists thus far in the series and if you have fallen in love with Jenevier, as every reader will, you will agonize over this part of her journey. There are no words to describe how Jennifer Ensley will astonish you with this poignant book. The Journey Continues A most enjoyable installment of Jenevier's epic story. I love the way her free will shapes her as God's instrument. Tammie The third book is absolutely awesome, the characters just keep you enthralled. I hope the series never ends!! Keep them coming Jennifer, you have me hooked

Ensley Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The past is seldom as we'd have it, and the future is too uncertain a thing. Embrace the here and now. Make the most of today, it's all you have, and all you can trust in. And that's exactly what Jenevier was trying to do. Her mistakes were behind her, along with her bloody past. She wasn't even certain if she had a future anymore, she just lived each day as it came. She'd bargained with God, tried to reverse the sun, erase her murderous crime. Alas, you must be certain you can pay the price before the bartering begins. But, what do you do when your life is just one big long string of bad decisions? You grow and move forward, determined your future won't mirror your past. Or you change nothing. You just keep doing what you've always done until you stagnate and die. Either way, the decision is yours alone to make. After wrongfully killing Merodach, Jenevier trades her soul for his life and wakes up all alone in a strange new world. She must pay the price, learn her lesson, and discover her intended blessing before she can start over. But along with her epiphany, she'll find a whole new realm complete with its own set of problems. There's no perfect place in this universe because we're not perfect creatures. No matter where you find yourself, there you are. If you step into paradise dragging all your tainted and scarred baggage with you, then it's no longer paradise. Your flawed heart removes the bliss, negates utopia. Home was all she longed for, all she dreamed of. But was her home, her past, a place she could run to? Or would she find it was the one place she wanted to run from? Members Reviews: Loved It!! Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes I would recommend Blessed by Sapphires, It is a wonderful book. I enjoyed reading it and listening to it. What other book might you compare Blessed by Sapphires to and why? IDK What about Melissa Careys performance did you like? I did enjoy Melissa's narration of the book, she had emotion and excitement. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? She was torn from her family and the man she loved and sent to a strange place all by her self. Once she had feelings again she realized she could leave. Any additional comments? I have enjoyed the series. I am totally hooked! I love the different adventures she shares with us. I also love how easy the story seems to flow and come together so perfectly. Jennifer is an "Amazing" author and a wonderful person.

Pandora's Daughters Audiobook by William Bernhardt

Title: Pandora's Daughters Subtitle: Shine, Book 3 Author: William Bernhardt Narrator: Lara Wells Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 44 mins Language: English Release date: 12-18-13 Publisher: Babylon Books Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: In the near future, a few young women manifest extraordinary abilities called "Shine"; each girl's ability is different. Some develop extraordinary mental abilities. Some become physically strong. Others have powers that defy description. But the world does not embrace these Shines. It fears them - especially after the destruction of Seattle is blamed on one Shine named Aura. After her horrifying discovery of the underground cellblock where many Shine prisoners-and her mother-were held and experimented on, Aura resolved to escape from the TYL "rehab"; unaware of the government and scientific conspiracies swirling around her, she developed a plan with the other Shines utilizing their special abilities and, most importantly, teamwork. They blew a hole in the electrified wall surrounding TYL, but soon after they were apprehended by Dr. Coutant and her associates, who appeared to have advance knowledge of the escape attempt. Now she must somehow survive cruel retaliation and successfully find some way off the island - before it's too late. Members Reviews: Got lucky and discovered this series early! I got lucky and discovered the very clever Shine series by William Bernhardt early on. The adventures of Aura and company make for a thrilling entry in the Superhero genre. It's very easy to fall into clichés when writing these sorts of things, but Bernhardt has a deft touch with characters and that makes the story all the more compelling. This latest entry in the Shine series sees our heroes just after they've banded together to escape. Questions are answered and even more are raised. I hesitate to go into any more spoilers than this lest I ruin any surprises, and the author definitely knows his business when it comes to that sort of thing. As this is a series, the quick read made for a pleasurable commute and I'm very much looking forward to the next one. Buy this series! You won't be disappointed! Continues on the right path With this third installment, the author continues to move forward the series at a good clip, and at the same time we get more insights regarding how the powers work and the conspiracies that are at play. After a failed escape attempt, Aura and her friends seem to have reached the end of the line, but as the story progresses we see how these girls have started to bond with each other. This is a promise of very interesting things to come, and toward the end of this part, we will get delivery in at least part of that promise. As has been the case with previous installments, we get a well-written story, that keep us engaged and that has enough elements in the plot to offer a myriad of possibilities. I have always been a fan of Bernhardt's legal thrillers, and with this series the author is definitely proving that he can be successful in a completely different genre. If you have not started this series yet, you would be well served to do so now. The plot thickens... The Shine series has become one of my favorite spare time distractions. Just finished this third installment at a Starbucks over a peppermint mocha latte. Itâs that kind of a treat. Having fun imagining the story as a movie. Could easily become one of those pop-culture hits where teen-aged heros become accepted by all ages. And Iâm not chainmailing youâ :-) I think youâve got another day or two to pick this up for $.99.

The Descent Audiobook by Alma Katsu

Title: The Descent Author: Alma Katsu Narrator: Laurel Lefkow Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 01-02-14 Publisher: Random House Audiobooks Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The stunning conclusion to Alma Katsu's gripping supernatural trilogy that began with The Taker. We had a tangled history, Adair and I. He had been my lover and my teacher, master to my slave. We had literally been prisoners to one another. Somewhere along the way he fell in love with me, but I was too afraid to love him in return. Afraid of his unexplainable powers, and his furious temper. Afraid of what I knew he was capable of and what even he himself didnt know he could do. I ran away to follow a safer path with a man I could understand. I always knew, however, that my path would one day lead back to Adair... Members Reviews: Great Finale! I am still in shock and in awe with this fantastic finale to the Immortal Trilogy. The unfold of the storyline was totally unexpected, without getting away from the main plot, Ms. Katsu proved once again her talent as a writer and story teller. The story unfold in a way that will surprise you with the most unexpected turns and twists. We've met a new Adair in each book, and this Adair is even more "godlike" that you can imagine. It is so hard to review this book without giving up spoilers of the plot... I'll do my best. Let's begin saying is the culmination of a love story, is about the power of love, and how much we are willing to give up and sacrifice in order to be with the love one. But is not a fairy tale either; this specific book it might seem like one, but if you have followed the story since book one, you know that is not the case. The main characters have gone thorough a journey of self discovery, and not an easy one. From romantic love, addictive relationships, abusive relationships, codependency, immortality, betrayal etc. Until they find true love, not without being hurt and not without paying a price. One part of the book that touched me deeply, and made me meditate is when Lanore met Sophia in the underworld. Lanny felt guilty of Sophia's suicide, and Sophia tells her that she is giving too much credit to what she did. At the end, our ultimate fate is in our hands not in the hands of others, based on the decisions and choices we made. This book like it's predecessors is about fantasy, magic, power, immortality, Love; but in this one we are also in touch with the underworld and the Gods. A fresh and romantic approach to Dante's Inferno and Greek Mythology. Never see that coming. You won't be disappointing with the final outcome. A few quotes from the book that I loved: "We all marry strangers, Lanore. Even if it is someone you know, he won't be the same person once you are wed." "Growth and change are two of the great gifts we get from time." "wanting isn't the same as loving." "Only a fool would underestimate the power of lust. Kingdoms have been won and lost, men and beasts have battled to the death over it. "I hadn't yet learned that it was okay to make demands of the people we love, that we didn't have to accept others exactly as they come to us. No one is perfect, after all." "You have to admit, there is a poetic justice to it" In a word? Brilliant The Descent is the final book in author Alma Katsuâs The Taker Trilogy. After reading, and loving, the first two books I was beyond anxious to see how things would end for Lanny, Adair, Luke and Jonathan.

Lights and Shadows Audiobook by Brad Magnarella

Title: Lights and Shadows Subtitle: The Prisoner and the Sun, Book 2 Author: Brad Magnarella Narrator: Steve Marvel Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 12-05-13 Publisher: Brad Magnarella Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The journey is over. The quest for the sun has fallen to ruin. From the depths of a hopeless swamp, Iliff condemns himself. But when he encounters a dethroned king and his war-torn subjects, he stirs to new purpose: to protect these good people from the darkness of the world. It will be his redemption. Or will it? For the more fiercely Iliff struggles to fortify their light, the greater looms the enemy's shadow - and his own. So continues The Prisoner and the Sun, the fantasy-based trilogy that asks: What lies beyond our walls? Members Reviews: A Review of Book Two In the second book, Illif is now fully grown, with the consciousness, ambitions, concerns of a man. He is aided by a huge, Loch Ness-type creature in escaping from a Homeric miasma where he spends years trapped on an island, subsisting on raw catfish. He is taken in by a Utopian kingdom of innocent creatures who radiate their emotions in halos of color around their heads. When he learns of the historic enmity between his adopted people and the conquering Garrot, he finds a way in which he can help. By employing his masonry skills from the days of the subterranean prison, Illif builds a fortress for the community which seems impregnable. The construction requires considerable resources and a change in outlook and organization for the peaceful, happy villagers. Here the allegory becomes far richer than the theme of protection from an external enemy. One faction of the community is bent on a final, total war with their adversaries. Another believes that the Garrot are not so different from themselves, and that the chances for peace are good. As the impending fight gets closer, even Illif begins to question whether the walls he has built are truly needed. Perhaps they are warping the spirit of the community, making them hide away in their fortress and count all outsiders as foreign, enemy. The book ends in failure for the massive edifice that never seemed to fit the spirit of the villagers. And Illif, realizing he is a seeker and not a townsman, is back on the road toward the adventures that I, for one, am eagerly anticipating in Book Three. A fantasy ride you don't want to miss (2) Lights and Shadows (The Prisoner and the Sun #2) by Brad Magnarella is the second installment of the "The Prisoner and The Sun" trilogy. This second book takes up where book 1 ended, the action never misses a beat, and the journey continues full speed ahead. Just like book 1, I could not put this book down, and I really did not want it to end. This is an excellent book, well written and excellently edited. The characters are well defined, the tale is gripping and all I can say is; get it, read it and enjoy it. Happy reading. I look forward to reading book 3. I strongly recommend this book and this author. Wonderful When I started this book it was kinda slow to make sense, but when I cought on I was hooked, I have read the whole series and only wish the author would have left some room for more. It is of the same type as the Hobbit, Lord of the Rings ect. good read. excellent book Very well written. Great stories line. Story moves along well. Recommend this book. Will buy the rest of the series. Second book even better than the first I genuinely enjoyed this book. It was fast moving and even better than the first. Brad Magnarella is an excellent, upcoming author.

Brink Narrator: Nigel Patterson Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 11-07-13 Publisher: Fugitive Fiction Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: Sergeant Jacob Knox leads the Head Knockers, a unit of scout-saboteurs in the war against the Dread Duke and his armies. They are the favorite squad among Captain Brighton's Stormwalkers, until an ambush by shapeshifters kills the Captain, half the company, and Knox's best men. Now the new Captain has new orders: he's sending the Head Knockers to investigate an abandoned village, the possible source of the attack. It's just Knox, his sword, and a handful of boys barely old enough to shave against an evil force burrowed deep beneath the dirt streets of an empty town. Waiting for them there is the Prince of Luster and Decay - the demonic embodiment of greed - and it'll take more than a sword to defeat it. Members Reviews: Great Intro to a new fantasy series! Would you consider the audio edition of The Prince of Luster and Decay to be better than the print version? I haven't read the print version. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? I loved the battle in the tombs. Which character as performed by Nigel Patterson was your favorite? It's hard to choose between Sgt Knox and the Prince of Luster and Decay. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? No. Any additional comments? It was a fun, fast paced fantasy adventure. Dark. I liked it. If you are into dark age fantasy, horror and mystery, you could enjoy this one. The narrator has a really nice voice and can act. Sometimes the storytelling was a little too fast for my brain to keep up, but he portrayed the characters so well, that it kept me entertained. This is just a prequel, so the real "good" stuff is yet to come. I suppose that's what a prequel is supposed to do, make you want for more, and I do. Pleasantly Surprised If you could sum up The Prince of Luster and Decay in three words, what would they be? Soldiers, Demons, War What was one of the most memorable moments of The Prince of Luster and Decay? The build up to the final scene was tense. The narrator did a fine job of keeping the atmosphere as the author would have intended. Vocally, Nigel Patterson sounds very like Sir Tony Robinson, which is no bad thing! Which scene was your favorite? I really enjoyed the final standoff between the sergeants character and The Prince Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yes, as a novella it was easily listened to on my morning commute Any additional comments? I shall be looking for the rest of the series!

A Song of Stone Audiobook by Iain Banks

Title: A Song of Stone Author: Iain Banks Narrator: Peter Kenny Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 5 mins Language: English Release date: 01-23-14 Publisher: Hachette Audio UK Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: The war is ending, perhaps ended. For the castle and its occupants the troubles are just beginning. Armed gangs roam a lawless land where each farm and house supports a column of dark smoke. Taking to the roads with the other refugees, anonymous in their raggedness, seems safer than remaining in the ancient keep. However, the lieutenant of an outlaw band has other ideas and the castle becomes the focus for a dangerous game of desire, deceit and death. Iain Bank's masterly novel reveals his unique ability to combine gripping narrative with a relentlessly voyaging imagination. The narrative technique and sheer brio of A Song Of Stone reveal a great novelist at the height of his powers. Critic Reviews: "His boldest and most ambitious experiment with fiction since 'The Bridge' " (Time Out) Members Reviews: Don't review this book after one read on a Sunday afternoon. I am an avid reader of books containing challenging ideas, and after five reads over a year I am still digesting "A Song of Stone". This book communicates the horror of the human experience better then anything I've read since "The Heart of Darkness". Banks uses a morbid and brooding tone similar to that of "The Wasp Factory" but does so with more maturity and greater lyrical precision. "A Song of Stone" is not for those readers who seek recreational escapism or morally clean and simple tales. Bank's ability to make the horrid both lovely and beautiful is his greatest strength as a writer and is probably the cause of negative reviews seen here. To enjoy this book requires you to be psychology prepared to enter a dark and occasionally monstrous world, and to allow some of your most taboo impulses to surface into conscience thought. I consider it to be a hell of a good time- definitely a book to own rather then borrow. "A Song of Stone" along with "The Bridge" is Banks at his best. Due to it's content, most people do not consider this "appropriate" reading - I feel that is exactly the reason it should be read. Human nature unfettered This book explores the worst of human behavior. It is very believable and I really think these types of things have happened before. It's about refugees trying to escape a war that is encroaching upon the countryside. It happens that they run up on a military unit that takes charge. What follows is what humans do. The book is very grim and explores the dark side of human nature. I found it to be a powerful experience. an ode to the futility of war I was lost reading this story â there was no place or time given, nor any reason for the fighting. They were using horse drawn carts, but had access to gasoline driven vehicles; he was Lord of the Manor with peasants and servants, yet they were using guns and cannons. This ambiguity did not bother my enjoyment of the story. The story is strictly told from the Lord's point of view, him memories and understanding of what all is going on, and he is strictly telling it to his wife.

The Chronicles of Varuk Audiobook by Scott Reeves

Title: The Chronicles of Varuk Subtitle: Book One Author: Scott Reeves Narrator: Scott Reeves Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 3 mins Language: English Release date: 12-30-13 Publisher: Aether Wind Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic Publisher's Summary: In the grand tradition of Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian, this 18,000-word novella begins the chronicles of Ko Yingh Varuk, a mighty northern barbarian who leaves his clan and ventures into the civilized lands to the south. Along the way, he encounters evil spirits, fierce soldiers, beleaguered miners, and a princess who is determined to tame him in her bed. Members Reviews: Swords, sorcery and sex! Okay, now that I've got your attention I'll begin the review. Published in 2011, "The Chronicles of Varuk: Book One" is your run-of-the-mill sword and sorcery tale written by Scott Reeves. The story centers on a young (18 years old) barbarian warrior named Ko Yingh Varuk or just simply Varuk who has decided to seek adventure outside of his mountainous Northern village. Against his parent's and the tribal elder's wishes, Varuk gathers his meager belongings and begins his treacherous journey Southward into civilized lands to seek fame, fortune, women and whatever else lies beyond. Here are my thoughts on The Chronicles of Varuk: Book One; Pros + Good old fashioned barbarian sword and sorcery. + Engaging story. + Some clever plot twists. + Sex scenes weren't overly gratuitous or ridiculous. (This may be a con for some readers!) + Accomplished writing. Cons - Author often ignores perfect opportunities to expand on action in the story. Examples include; the struggle with and possession by the canyon spirit, fighting the bridge soldiers, death of the princess, fleeing the cities soldiers, fighting the beasts in the arena as a boy and battling the slurteen spirit. I feel if the author fleshed out these scenes a bit more he could create some great action sequences that would allow the story to fall more in line with the true sword and sorcery genre. - Overall story feels slightly disjointed as each story seems to have initially been written as a separate short story and loosely linked together. - Nothing terribly original for the genre. - No map. The Chronicles of Varuk: Book One reminded me a lot of David C. Smith's "Oron" series and of course Robert E. Howards "Conan." While it's difficult not to picture a hulking Northern barbarian and not be reminded of Conan, Reeves does an admirable job of giving Varuk enough of his own personality to make him memorable. Running a length of approximately 75 pages the four stories included in this book were "Varuk: Rites of Passage, Varuk: the Maiden and the Demon, Varuk and the Razorbeast and Varuk and the Princess." All in all an enjoyable fantasy read and I look forward to reading the further adventures of Ko Yingh Varuk. Good story, but WAY too short! If this story had been about as long as a typical paperback book, I would have rated it with 5 stars, as it captivated me from beginning to end. However, I would NOT call this a BOOK! It's a short story... one that should be included with an anthology of perhaps four or five more stories IN a book. I was able to read this one in about an hour. Most paperback books will last me four to six hours, at least. I am VERY disappointed that there are no Amazon standards here on minimum pages required, to be requisite for the status of being called "a book". To add insult to injury, the author set his price at $2.99.

Cenoc, the self-styled Lord of Latimus, learns of hidden treasures that can make him even more powerful. Few dare oppose his will, even as they witness his growing madness. However, a remnant stands in his way: a newly knighted young man who is torn between his mission and an overwhelming desire for revenge; an enchanter-initiate who finds himself facing terrors even greater than the danger of opposing Cenoc; a teen Outworlder from Earth who has been gifted with the Earthbow and told he will learn its purpose - just before his mentor abandons him. Return to the world of Narenta in Earthbow, the second of Sherry Thompson's Earthbow. Members Reviews: Could not finish listening Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? I cannot recommend this audio book at all not because of the story but because of the narrator. I couldn't stand to finish it. How did the narrator detract from the book? The narrator was unprofessional, used a cheap microphone set up; you can hear the edits where there is a different quality of sound to his voice. If I was the author, I would demand another reader. His use of long "a's", his lack of reading meaning into anything totally distracted from the words being read. His sandpaper voice didn't help, either. Next time get someone who can read better than a junior high school level. Was Earthbow worth the listening time? Couldn't finish it.
