    REVIEW – Among Thieves by M.J. Kuhn

    December 11, 2021 /

    Among Thieves is the Money Heist Vs Assasins Creed mashup that we didn’t know we needed. MJ Kuhn talks to her readers like they are in the room with her. She’s sitting them down and talking about an idea she has, an idea of stealing a powerful relic and convincing us all it’s a great idea. She shares her wisdom with us in a dark and hypnotic fashion.  Whilst reading Among Thieves I had many “aha moments, damn this is good and how can I be a part of this amazing group?”  A lot resonated with me – putting on a front to hide the inner despair of a broken…

    Review: The Trouble with Peace by Joe Abercrombie

    October 3, 2021 /

    The Trouble with Peace is Abercrombie’s best book to date.  Dark.  Bloody.  Utterly hypnotic.  How on earth do you review something flawless, something so resolutely perfect?  A story that details the travesty of war, the brutality of love, and the burden of power.  Peace can be glorious but the truth is told – it is rarely the peace a nation would come to know.  Enemies in the shadows, whispers in the halls, treason is never far from the mind. “We’re all like children, Rikke. The older you get, the more you realize the grown-ups won’t suddenly walk in and set things right. You want things right, you have to put…

    For the Wolf by Hannah F. Whitten | Book Review

    May 19, 2021 /

    The first daughter is for the throne. The second daughter is for the wolf. The wolves are for the Wilderwood. For the Wolf by Hannah Whitten was for sure one of my most anticipated reads of the year.  It was stated as a red riding retelling and I was giddy with excitement.  As a child it was one of my favourite fairy tales…the innocence of Red and the wicked ways of the big bad wolf…tell me who could resist?  Hannah Whitton’s writing was hypnotic and melodic.  I was transported to a world that made the impossible possible.   The author had the ingredients that would surely blow my mind.  A…

    The Girl and the Mountain by Mark Lawrence | Book Review

    April 19, 2021 /

    The Girl and the Mountain yet another stonking story from Mark Lawrence.  Once again, the author had that perfect formula for breaking me.  It’s a straight run on from The Girl and the Stars, it didn’t skip a beat, not for one second and I settled into meeting old friends again.  An ending that had me needing more, an ending that proved just how addictive Lawrence’s writing is.  His writing skills are so dastardly and intoxicating that its impossible not to race to the end.  I’ve had to wait a few days to write this review because I have been living in a hungover, adrenaline intoxicated state.  Let’s take a…

    Before They Are Hanged by Joe Abercrombie | Book Review

    March 24, 2021 /

    “we should forgive our enemies, but not before they are hanged.” Before they Hanged is another masterpiece in storytelling and exemplary characterization.  The first half the book felt like a continuation of the Blade Itself – a set up story…a massive prologue, if you like.  Again, Abercrombie sets up the story with the consummate skill of masterful bard.  It’s a story of epic proportions, vivid worldbuilding and terrible treachery.  You are immediately catapulted into the world once more, carrying on from where The Blade Itself left off.  Not a beat dropped, a breath wasted, or a thought discarded.  The Blade Itself really was a set up book, introducing us to…

    The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie | Review

    March 9, 2021 /

    Well, isn’t The Blade Itself as deadly as a hushed-up autopsy?  Grimdark?  I swallowed it up and asked for another portion just like little Oliver begging for more.  With its deadly plot and guillotine sharp character arcs, this is going to be a novel that I will take comfort in rereading time and time again.  It’s a story that feels like a homecoming.  Its cozy and deadly in equal measure (well as cozy as a dagger threatening to spill every drop of blood.)   imagine wandering in the mountains and finally making your way home – a fire inviting you in, you can’t help but be enveloped by it…this is The…
