2019 New SFF Series and Standalones

Alright, it’s somehow already 2019! So, I decided I should make a list of the New Series and Standalones for the year.

I apologize for...

Once again, it’s time to look ahead and get excited for what the new year has in store for us.

Parker is so spectacularly different; I can’t help but love it. This...

Favorites of 2013

Expected Favorites that Delivered: The Republic of Thieves by Scott Lynch The Republic of Thieves is one of those books that makes me second guess all the other 5 star ratings I have doled out this year. In some ways it felt very familiar (in a good way) to go back to reading a story by Lynch. Once again, I love his...
