Sexy Witches in Seattle

Heart of Darkness by Lauren Dane

by Leave a Comment

The cover of Lauren Dane’s Heart of Darkness drew me in at The Ripped Bodice. Upon discovery that it was a witch paranormal romance, I was SOLD. With my access to bookstores limited, I’ve started to read more books from my shelf. As this is book one of the Bound by Magick series, I’m reviewing for the CBR12 “Fresh Start” bingo square. Meriel Owen is a badass lawyer, lover of pencil skirts, and sexy as hell red-headed witch living in Seattle. In this universe, witches […]

#CBR12 Bingo: Red Official book description: Half-Fae, half-human Bryce Quinlan loves her life. By day, she works for an antiquities dealer, selling barely legal magical artifacts, and by night, she parties with her friends, savoring every pleasure Lunathion—otherwise known as Crescent City— has to offer.

Two years later, her job has become a dead end, and she now seeks only blissful oblivion in the city’s most […]

A Sherlock Holmes Retelling That Actually Works!

The Angel of the Crows by Katherine Addison

Katherine Addison might just have made my auto-pre-order list. I loved The Goblin Emperor, and she did it again with her most recent book which is effectively Sherlock Holmes fan-fiction. The cool thing about The Angel of the Crows is how it sets things up to be kind of recognizable but then drops a detail or line that makes it really clear which story you’re in and puts things recently mentioned in new and often interesting perspectives. The world of the story is a Victorian […]

Spoiler warning! This is the fifth story in the Innkeeper Chronicles series, and this review may contain spoilers for previous installments. If you want to start at the beginning, Clean Sweep is the first book. For Innkeepers, the biggest and most sacred holiday of the year is the Treaty Stay, which commemorates the ancient treaty between the first Inns, their intergalactic guests, and the agreement to keep humans safe and completely unaware of the presence of alien visits to Earth. During a Treaty Stay, Inns have to open the doors […]

Full Throttle – Another good short story collection from the Kings

Full Throttle by Joe Hill

by 1 Comment

I have enormous respect for authors who step out of their comfort zone to try new things in their writing style. Joe Hill has always done that and this collection is no different. Most of the stories work but unfortunately some fell flat to me. When one takes chances, that is invariably a result, but as a reader I respect the effort and it makes me want to read more of that author going forward. There are two stories Joe wrote with his Dad, Stephen […]
