Book review: The White Owl

Posted on July 23, 2020 by Tomas

Book review: Michael Chatfield’s Death Knight series, books 1-3

Posted on July 5, 2020 by Tomas

My next read was a bit unusual pick – a book series promising a short, light-hearted fantasy. Which delivered on its promise. Due to the books being short, I’m merging the individual reviews of the first three books into a single post.

Book review: The Soulweb

Posted on June 21, 2020 by Tomas

After a long hiatus from pleasure reading caused my a sequence of beta-swaps, I came back to it with a book that promised a fast-paced fantasy adventure. And it fulfilled its promise, though not without (minor) issues.

Book review: Found in Amber

Posted on January 8, 2020 by Tomas

The sequel to the Sci-Fi romance Lost in Amber (my review) had came out a while ago but I only got to it now. The sequel builds not only on the SF part of the plot but also on the lighthearted writing with many quips and funny moments even when things get dire.

Book review: Harbinger

Posted on October 16, 2019 by Tomas

It somehow happens that my reading in the second half of 2019 is going to be dragon-themed. After the violent Dawn of Dragons and post-apocalyptic An Empire of Ashes, I got to something a bit lighthearted.

Book review: An Empire of Ashes (Drakin #3)

Posted on October 1, 2019 by Tomas

The first book in this loosely-connected series was my first touch of Sci-Fi/Fantasy mix. The second book followed a new set of characters and an old enemy. This one takes place 200 years later, with (almost) all-new cast.
