Book Review: Elven Council in Ashes by K.J. Dawson
Elven Council in Ashes is a perfect sequel to Elven House of Ivy. With surprises around every corner, this fast-paced page-turner grabbed me from the start.

"Respectable lady scholars shouldn’t be dodging evildoers, escaping lost tombs, and chasing down magical artifacts." It was ten o'clock at night, and I was seventy percent of the way through Tomb of the Sun King. I knew better as I climbed into bed, my Kindle in hand. "Just one more chapter" turned into many different... Continue Reading →

Have you ever started a great book and had it interrupted by a cold or some other bug that sneaks up on you quickly? That was me reading Haunted Warrior.

Book Review: A Touch of Magic by Rita Boucher
When I read the description of this book, it grabbed my attention so much that I immediately read the first two in the series. I am so glad I did. Although A Touch of Magic stands well on its own, reading the first two added more depth to an otherwise wonderful story. Ms. Boucher's writing... Continue Reading →
