I was lucky enough of getting a copy of The Children of Gods and Fighting Men (CoGaFM from now on), the debut novel from Shauna Lawless. As a fan of historical fantasy, this title was something I had on the radar for a long time since it was announced, and I can say that certainly it delivered, making almost impossible to let down the book.
Miss Percy’s Pocket Guide to the Care and Feeding of British Dragons is the first book in the A Miss Percy Guide series by Quenby Olson. We have a really cozy fantasy history, situated in the Regency and extremely well written, which I personally loved
Within each judging team for SPSFC there are roughly thirty (30) books assigned as their ‘slush pile’ and teams with multiple members then split the pile between them to begin reading. In Wayward Stars we have split things so that every book is read by at least two people. We aim to read 20% of each book and decide whether it’s one to continue as a full group or not. Below are my nine (9) from the slush pile. It’s probably I read a little bit more of the 20% if I like the book (actually it has happened).
A new order joins the world of The Griffin Legends, by Mark Howard! It is said that when the four paladins, Osoric, Dorio, Eudon, and Zarondo swore mutual oaths to defend the city of Oviedo to the death, they formed the first of the monastic military orders...
Today we are accompanied by J. E. Hannaford, author of The Skin, and the recently released The Pact.
The Skin is the first book on the Black Hind’s Wake duology, by J. E. Hannaford, who recently released the second part, The Pact (actually, it is being released the same day I write this review). It is a marvelous book, an ode of love to mythology, and a really engaging story. Before diving into a review of the content, we must talk about the visual aspect of the book, as it is a beautiful book, from the cover to the end, with stunning pieces of art in each chapter, which complement perfectly the story that is narrated inside.
Today we are accompanied by G.M. White, author of the Royal Champion series.
The Swordman’s Lament is technically the first novel in the Royal Champion series, by G.M. White. Let me start this review by saying that there is a prequel novella, The Swordman’s Intent, situated 15 years before this first novel, which you can get for free by subscribing to G.M. White’s newsletter; and I highly recommend reading it before because I think it really gives another layer of enjoyment to the novel.
