Some more of Toby’s rather complicated family relationships are revealed

Night and Silence by Seanan McGuire

by 1 Comment

Spoiler warning! This is book 12 in an ongoing series, it is NOT the place to start. There will be minor spoilers for previous books in the series, as it’s impossible to discuss this book without mentioning things that have happened in earlier books. If you’re interested (and you should be, this is one of the best urban/paranormal fantasy series out there right now), start with book 1, Rosemary and Rue.  Faerie knight and champion, and former private investigator October “Toby” Daye is not doing so well. While her loyal squire is by her side, the aftereffects of her demanding mother’s interference […]

#CBR10Bingo: This is the end – Magic Triumphs

Magic Triumphs by Ilona Andrews

by 2 Comments

#CBR10Bingo: This is the end This is the tenth and final book in a long running series. As such, there may be spoilers for the contents of at least previous books, as well as mild spoilers for the plot of this one. More importantly, it is NOT the place to start. The proper place to begin is Magic Bites. The book is a bit rough, but stick with it, this series is among the best paranormal fantasy out there. I’ve spent more than eleven hours on a train from Canada today, and then more than an hour getting back from Penn Station, […]

#CBR10 Bingo: Backlog – Outcast

Outcast by Adrienne Kress

by Leave a Comment

3.5 stars #CBR10Bingo: Backlog (has been on my TBR list since June 2013) Riley Carver lives in a little town somewhere in the Southern USA. For the past six years, on a particular day, angels come from the heavens and take away some of the townspeople. One year ago, the angels took Riley’s best friend, almost boyfriend, Chris. So she’s refusing to to leave the house (even though the whole town is supposed to the public celebration – or face strong censure), and when she sees an angel in the backyard, she shoots it in the face. Imagine her surprise when […]

An April Fool’s Joke come true

Iron and Magic by Ilona Andrews

by 3 Comments

4.5 stars While this is technically the first book in a new series, which can be read on its own, this book fits into the larger framework of the Kate Daniels universe (where this book is book 9.5 out of 10). So there’s quite a bit of back story you’re missing out on if you’ve not read the other books first. While the first book is rough, the series as a whole is my favourite paranormal/urban fantasy series, probably ever, so if you like the genre and haven’t checked them out yet, do yourself a favour and get caught up before you […]

This is book 3 in a series. If you want to start at the beginning, check out Discount Armageddon. From Goodreads: When Alex Price agreed to go to Ohio to oversee a basilisk breeding program and assist in the recovery of his psychic cousin, he didn’t expect people to start dropping dead. But bodies are cropping up at the zoo where he works, and his girlfriend – Shelby Tanner, an Australian zoologist with a fondness for big cats – is starting to get suspicious.  Worse yet, the bodies have all been turned partially to stone… The third book in the InCryptid series takes us […]
