Rayven is a grave robber, an interesting career choice to say the least. One night she and her begruding partner enter the Petherick family tomb, intent on uncovering riches that would provide her big break. Instead, she disturbs the resting place of the woman the Lord of Bones is convinced he loves. In revenge, the Lord kills Rayven’s partner and whisks her off to purgatory […]

Reading the blurb did not prepare me for the weirdness in this book. Tethered In Torment starts out with three main characters: twins, Cora and Lena, and their best friend Remy. One minute they’re all happy and the next they’ve been whisked away to another land where Cora and Lena are the long-lost princesses of the realm. That’s not the weirdness, though. That happens when

Imagine the situation: you’re feeling a little frisky and head to one of those well-known story submission sites to find something to read while you scratch that particular itch. Now imagine that the stories you read flow well, don’t take hours to get to the point, and are free of spelling, grammatical and continuity errors. Well, that’s what Filth is. The book is divided into

After reading the Vengeance series I was super excited to read a fairytale retelling from the mind of Michaella Dieter. Shattered Glass takes the story of Snow White and draws upon other fairytales, myths and legends including cameos from the likes of Beast, Captain Hook, and Robin Hood. This is a multi-POV book with the prologue and epilogue written in the third person, as it

I’ll hold my hands up and say that I knew absolutely nothing about harpies before I picked up this book. Do I know much more now I’ve read it? No. But that didn’t stop me from thoroughly enjoying the story. Yuri, Ransley, and Kerr are on the hunt for the supernatural creature that has stolen their dead uncle’s body. You know it’s not going to

I’m not usually one to read post-apocalyptic dystopian fantasy but I’d read a YD La Mar book even if it were clean romance, so I found myself picking up this one with a healthy dose of curiosity . I was not disappointed. The world has become overrun with vampires, divided into five territories, only one comprising human resistance. Fitri is a hybrid with very little

After that epic ending in Fiala’s Return, I was super curious to discover what would happen next with Perla and the gang. As it turns out, there’s no big moment where the world comes crashing down due to Drystan’s actions. Instead Perla, Saxan, Ambroz and Eryx seem to pick up and carry on without the ‘big event’ having much impact upon them. And this seems

You know how sometimes a book pulls you in from the very first page and holds you hostage, but you can’t quite figure out how it’s done it? That’s what Fiala’s Return did to me. I’m not a big reader of fantasy novels but I was told the ending would damned near break me and that I absolutely had to read it. I’m not one

It’s been a long time since I’ve read a proper fantasy book. I’m not talking about paranormal books set in our world (or some altered version thereof). I’m talking about a different world entirely, where humans are almost an abstract notion and the fae and other creatures reign. It was Mila Sin’s book, The Howling Wind, that drew me to abandon my usual dark and
