    The Shadow Gate by L.L. MacRae

    May 28, 2023 / 1 Comment

    The Shadow Gate is yet another phenomenal outing from Macrae. She has a way of turning words into gold. A freshly imagined world and a fantastical plot full of twits and turns. The Shadow Gate is the long-awaited sequel to The Iron Crown which I enjoyed immensely.  I was left hungering for more – characterisation, world building and a plot tighter than two coats of paint left me itching to know what would happen next. I read this before the sprawling fantasy novel was entered into SPFBO #7 and subsequently became a finalist. There was always something special about it, it was always evident that others would feel the same…

    The House of Sacrifice by Anna Smith Spark

    March 6, 2023 / No Comments

    The House of Sacrifice was absolutely brilliant – unsettling, brutal and tragic. A masterpiece of intrigue and Anna Smith Spark has crazy talent. The House of Sacrifice concludes the Empires of Dust trilogy and can I say what a wild ride it was. I enjoyed every minute of it and can’t believe it took me this long to pick it up. I deserve a slap across the wrists for that misdemeanour. The prose is outstanding…seriously beautiful in its brutal sense of realism. At no point did I struggle to get lost in the story, I was there in that moment, living the consequences of those characters. Spark has a way…

    The Tower of Living and Dying by Anna Smith Spark

    February 26, 2023 / No Comments

    The Tower of Living and Dying is absolutely EVERYTHING you could want in a fantasy novel. Epic scope and an imagination that never quits for anything. When I read The Court of Broken Knives a couple of weeks ago, I was blown away by the sheer force of Smith Spark’s writing. The characterisation, the passion, and the endless possibilities of the worldbuilding. It’s been a breath of fresh air from the usual fantasy novels I’ve been known to read. I love Grimdark in all its devious nuances and deplorable characters but this feels different somehow, addictive and binge worthy. The Tower of Living and Dying continues straight on from The…

    The Court of Broken Knives by Anna Smith Spark

    February 12, 2023 / No Comments

    A Court of Broken Knives is the crowning of the Queen of Grimdark, Anna Smith Spark. A fantastical story that resonates with power and struggle. I can’t wait to delve into the Empire of Dust series once more. Am I glad that I picked up The Court of Broken Knives? Oh boy, am I ever. I put out a call on Twitter to get my fellow bookworms to suggest fantasy books that might get me out of my fantasy reading funk. In 2022, I read the First Law Trilogy in its entirety and had the biggest book hangover. Nothing in the Fantasy genre was scratching that grimdark itch, it was…

    Cold From the North will undoubtedly insert D.W. Ross into the fantasy landscape with ease.  A fantasy book that has reminded me why I love the genre so much.  Ross weaves an atmospheric tale of survival and intrigue.

    Review: The Iron Crown by L. L. MacRae

    August 6, 2021 / No Comments

    The Iron crown is an ethereal vision of adventure and female badassery. Fenn has been cursed by the Myr. He can’t remember anything; He has no memories of where he’s come from, no memories of friends or family and he doesn’t know if he’s been put on this earth to do good or bad. The story takes off at such a pace I was quickly lacing up my Nikes and racing for the finish line. “The Dragons are the guardians of tessar, spirits of life of guidance and protection. Without them we are nothing.” The formula that the author concocted in order to produce this was both unique and special.…
