Mastery: Sex Wizards Book 2 by Alethea Faust

June 29, 2026 by carmelpie 2 Comments

This book has no right to be as good as it is. If Sex Wizards: Initiation introduced all of the rules of magic and forced Dominai to accept his power, Mastery shows his progression as he decides to improve his skills and learn how to slow down and let things come on their own. At the end of book 1, Olbric, Dominai’s closest friend and lover, was captured and tortured by two rogue wizards. Olbric and the other members of the crux were rescued, but […]

Look Again by Elizabeth Trembley

April 12, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

VERY LONG REVIEW for this CBR15Passport genre While this review is (hopefully)tasteful, this book has several triggers.  Version one At first, Look Again, a graphic novel by Elizabeth Trembley looks like it will be this sparse, dramatic, artistic story. Then it moves in a more realistic direction. But by the end of the story (or page 118 on my online reader copy) I realized this book is one deep commentary on life and the idea of are we good witnesses to our own lives? Our own […]
