Paper and Smoke is an excellent conclusion to the Chronicles of Whynne series! I have been so curious as to what was going to happen with Adam and I was not disappointed in the least. Wren and Luka are as snarky as ever and I could read a whole series based on Lindy. It's been so interesting to read about the aftermath of the events from The Night King.
I can't wait to see what Bethany Anne Lovejoy will come out with next! Thanks so much to the author for a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review. ...more
I officially love this series! Stones of Light by Zack Argyle is just as good as Voice of War if not a tiny bit better.
First and foremost, Argyle is jI officially love this series! Stones of Light by Zack Argyle is just as good as Voice of War if not a tiny bit better.
First and foremost, Argyle is just a good writer. The story flows and just really draws you in. He expands the world-building, fleshes out the characters and thickens the plot. Even more impressively, this does not have the 2nd book drag that a lot of series fall victim to.
Stones of Light continues to follow Chys, Laurel and Alverax as their paths twist and weave around one another. I'm very intrigued by Willow and was glad to see more of her. I enjoyed the new characters introduced as well.
There were several quotes I highlighted while reading but the quote below is the one that stuck with me the most.
Mocking others’ appearance is the lowest form of humor. If a man is cruel, speak of his cruelty. If a man is vain, speak of his vanity. Physicality plays no part in the morality of men.
I was surprised and very pleased as well that he included a brief recap of what happened in Voice of War. It's a small thing I wish more fantasy books had.
Overall, this was an excellent sequel and I cannot wait for the 3rd book! A huge thank you to Zack for a copy of the book!...more
This was so good! The Japanese background is delightful and nicely executed. It's a short book but despite that, Shou and Masaru were very i4.5 stars!
This was so good! The Japanese background is delightful and nicely executed. It's a short book but despite that, Shou and Masaru were very interesting to read about and I'm very curious about Katashi and Yosuke. It's a fast paced, intriguing read and I can't wait for the 2nd book!
I received an early e-arc of this in exchange for an honest review.
I have no idea why I waited so long to read Spellbreaker but at least I don't have to wait for the sequel to come out! I absolutely adore Els4.5 Stars
I have no idea why I waited so long to read Spellbreaker but at least I don't have to wait for the sequel to come out! I absolutely adore Elsie and Bacchus and I have been eaten up with curiosity as to what in the world is going on with the Cowls, these murders, Elsie's family, etc, etc. Spellbreaker ends with some teasing answers but there is still a lot to unravel. Once again, Charlie N. Holmberg thrills me with an intriguing plot, delightful characters, and enchanting writing....more
