+1 I doubt my rating here is a surprise to anyone. A large population of the book world love Maas and her writing, especially when it comes to this particular series. That said, this rating is not based purely on that fact. No this book earned it purely on its own merit and on […]
This book deserves 10 freaking nuts. Ho-ly shit. I’m not one to spend over $20 on a single book but I finished THE CROWN OF GILDED BONES and immediately bought all 3 hardcovers for $29 a piece. It’s that good. It’s so good in fact that I also preordered the first book in the […]
How many books have you read a book where you put it down after completing and waste no time picking up the next? No breather, no moment to consider, just grabbing the next to continue on the saga without interruption? That was me after reading FROM BLOOD AND ASH. I finished my audiobook, put […]
When I tell you guys I haven’t read a book like this in a long time I’m dead serious. You have your good books, the ones you like and will read again if the mood strikes you. You also have your great books, the ones you reread fairly often because they make you happy and […]
SPOILERS If you are into sci-fi, or adventures, or horror, or multiple POV… read this book. I originally started the audiobook without reading a long description. I thought I was in for some light magical realism, but wow. I was not. I listened to this book in my car back when I had a longer […]
4.5 Nuts This is going to be a strange review. I have read/listened to several versions of this book at this point. Therefore I will comment on them in order. First the original version as originally released, then the updated parts, and finally the narrated version by actor Eddie Redmayne. Cool? Good. I got my […]
5 Nuts Damnit, Schwab, you’re killing me. Take book one, now add in some more pirating, an extra dash of the Triwizard Tournament, and a sword-to-the-gut ending. Yep, that’s this second book in a nutshell. Where Delilah Bard was my favorite character in book one that place is easily usurped by Alucard in book 2. […]
Read by Burn Gorman BURN GORMAN! *dances* Yes, Burn is reading this audio exclusive. Don’t know who he is? Actually, I bet you do. Other than playing Dr. Owen Harper on Torchwood he’s also Adam in Forever and Night’s Watch traitor Karl Tanner. He also played Hindley in the Masterpiece Theater mini series of Wuthering […]
Read by Kai Owen This is probably one of my favorite audio exclusives from the Torchwood series. And let me tell you why: It’s read by Kai Owen. Kai Owen’s American accent for Jack makes me giggle. Kai Owen’s voice is beautiful. Rhys and Ianto are super bro-y in this story. I think it might […]
