Imagine Nation #1 The Blood of Kings by Matt Myklusch

by Leave a Comment

Imagine Nation #1 The Blood of Kings by Matt Myklusch and illustrator Onofrio Orlando  There are ups and downs happening within these pages. Things are both familiar and fresh with the combination of realism and fantasy that captures the reader. Overall, I enjoyed it, but one small bump was that it felt as if this was not the first in a series but maybe book two or three, which makes me wonder if this is a continuation of the novels in the Jack Blank Adventure […]

by Leave a Comment

Spirited V03 Greenhouse of Horror by Liv Livingston, Glass House Graphics and illustrated by Anna Volcan is due in July 2024. Therefore, as books one and two, this was read via an online reader copy. Book four is due in October 2024 but I’m still looking for a reader copy. However, if you want to read all four at once, in mid-November 2024 the collection of all four books will be available in a boxed edition. And honestly, I think you should (or use your […]

Spirited V02 Go, Ghoul, Go! by Liv Livingston

by Leave a Comment

The one thing I have with sequels is that if I read them too far apart, I forget parts of book one/the book(s) before. And that happened with  Spirited V02 Go, Ghoul, Go! by Liv Livingston and Glass House Graphics. I mean, I remembered that Liv is the only living person (if you don’t count the werewolves and creatures of the swamp and such, I don’t count vampires) in a school of mostly ghosts. I remembered that she has two good friends, a “mean-girl” in […]

Spirited Volume one: Day of the Living Liv by Liv Livingston

by Leave a Comment

Liv Livingston tells her story in Spirited Volume one: Day of the Living Liv. Okay, I am not sure who the author actually is, maybe she has a ghostwriter? After all, Liv is starting a new school and her classmates are kinda a dead bunch to be around. No really, a lot of them are ghosts and boy do they have questions about Liv and being alive! (Yes, we need umbrellas when it rains.) This is a cute story about being yourself and that is […]

I never read Goosebumps as a kid, but did read R. L. Stine’s Fear Street, and other authors like that. Funny thing was, I never liked horror. Mystery yes, and if it was a thriller I was okay, but not full out horror. The other funny thing was, I probably was reading horror as there were vampires, witches, ghosts, and occasionally the oddness of the supernatural. As an adult I realized there are levels of thriller/horror, and P. J. Nighty has done just that. Along […]
