Now I’m curious about book two

Squire & Knight V01 by Scott Chantler

November 17, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

What do you do when you are looking through your old online reader list (and trust me, it’s a long one as I have some from 2022 still on there), and you find a book you want to read, but are not sure because it is about Knights and you’re think you’ve maxed out your Knights stories for the year (mostly because you are not looking for the Hero story or the Don Quixote story when it comes to knights)? You say, “It’s not like […]

Spear by Nicola Griffith

October 21, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

The last few years I try to read at least one or two things that I would not normally read. I have done horror graphic novels, manga, and adult novels. I did not do great (but not horrible) this year (that horror manga comic alone would have been enough), but I figured Spear by Nicola Griffith might work. It was adult, and science-fiction/fantasy (heavier on the fantasy). And it was short. I find that if you are tackling a subject/genre you do not normally, short […]

And they lived Happily Ever After. The End.

Prince and Knight by Daniel Haack

May 4, 2020 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

When I first saw Prince and Knight by Daniel Haack, my first thought was, “This is a board book. Are kids that age ready for this theme?” And then I thought, “Why not?” However, we need to introduce the idea of same sex couples on a level that a child can understand. And this book does that by creating a story that is straight forward and does not preach its message. It is a simple (but not simplistic) story about a same sex couple. Kids […]
