#BookReview – THE PALACE OF LOST MEMORIES by C.J. Archer #historicalfantasy #fantasy

I read this one back in December, but held off writing my review until I’d read the entire series – always a good sign! I did read one or two other books in between, but always purchased the next in this 6 book series as soon as I’d finished the previous one. The setting is […]

#BookReview: The Snow Queen – The Complete Saga by K.M. Shea #fantasy

Another book review from my reading binge while recovering from surgery. This one was a bargain boxset, and I liked both the cover and the blurb. Blurb Rakel is a princess who should have been queen. Instead, as a despised magic user she has spent most of her life exiled on a barren mountain, alone […]

#BookReview – THE NECROMANCER’S DAUGHTER by D. Wallace Peach #fantasy

Catching up on the reviews of the many books I read while recovering from my operations last year. This one is a classic ‘couldn’t put it down’, as I’ve come to expect from this author. The Necromancer’s Daughter by D. Wallace Peach My rating: 5 of 5 stars The queen of Verdane died in childbirth, […]

FOOL’S ASSASSIN by Robin Hobb #fantasy #BookReview

Blurb ‘Fantasy as it ought to be written’ George R.R. Martin Robin Hobb returns to her best loved characters in a brand new series. Tom Badgerlock has been living peaceably in the manor house at Withywoods with his beloved wife Molly these many years, the estate a reward to his family for loyal service to […]

#BookReview – The Sacrifice (The Fey #1) by Kristine Kathryn Rusch #fantasy #elves

Still catching up… Here’s my review of another one I read this winter. I’m a huge fan of Kris Rusch’s writing blog, and in awe of her specialised knowledge of the publishing industry, but this is the first of her novels I’ve tried. I think I might have to try a different series. The Sacrifice […]

#BookReview – STATE OF GRACE by John R. Phythyon #fantasy

I’ve had this one on my Kindle for years (oh dear, that TBR list…) and decided I felt in the mood to catch up on some of the books I’d taken note of as I’d found their blurbs particularly intriguing. You’ll see why this snagged my attention, considering my own series tagline: ‘James Bond meets […]

#BookReview TO KILL A FEA by Jamie A. Waters #fantasy

Quick post today as we have a lot going on just now, sorting and moving stuff into the new build because – yes! It’s finished! Well, mostly. We still have stuff to do inside, but it’s marvellous already to be in it, we almost feel like we have a whole new house. For my next […]

Only one week until THE PRINCE’S HEIR releases #EpicFantasy

I’m genuinely, truly excited about this one. It’s the first time I’ve completed a series, and from being daunted by the challenge of having to wrap up all the threads in satisfying ways, I’m chuffed with how it’s turned out – huge thanks to my subconscious, which somehow came up with all the answers! It’s […]

And here they are: #coverreveal for THE PRINCE’S HEIR and the re-covered PRINCE’S MAN #epicfantasy

Without further ado, here’s the gorgeous new cover for THE FIVE KINGDOMS book #1, THE PRINCE’S MAN I still love the original cover, but once book #4 is released I will also be putting all four together as a boxset, so they need to match. Besides, isn’t this new one gorgeous? And so to the […]
