Master of Plagues by E. L. Tettensor Guest Post: Sympathy for the Devil by E. L. Tettensor

Today I’m happy to welcome E. L. Tettensor as part of the Master of Plagues blog tour! Master of Plagues, the second Nicolas Lenoir novel following Darkwalker, will be released on February 3. While I haven’t yet read these books, I’m quite curious about them—especially after reading reviews of Darkwalker at Bookworm Blues and Not Yet Read and this interview with the author at The BiblioSanctum in which she discussed Nicolas Lenoir as an antihero. Since this aspect of the […]

Get In Trouble by Kelly Link The Leaning Pile of Books

The Leaning Pile of Books is a feature where I talk about books I got over the last week – old or new, bought or received for review consideration (often unsolicited).

If I can find them, links to excerpts, author’s websites, and places where you can find more information on the book are included. This week brought […]

Vermont SF Writer’s Series: Vermont Stories of Imagination!

The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison Favorite Books of 2014

2014 was not my best year for books since I both read and reviewed fewer books than usual, especially in the second half of the year due to moving to a new state. I am hoping to read and write reviews more regularly in 2015! It wasn’t my best year in terms of quality of books read, either. Last year I rated three books 10/10 and this year not one book received that rating, although there were two 9/10 books. […]

Uprooted by Naomi Novik 15 Most Anticipated Books of 2015

It’s really hard to make a list of 2015 releases I’m looking forward to because there are so many of them! Some books I’m really excited about reading—The Galaxy Game by Karen Lord, Golden Son by Pierce Brown, Half the World by Joe Abercrombie, Shadow Scale by Rachel Hartman, The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman, and A Crown for Cold Silver by Alex Marshall—have already been discussed on the site so I’ve decided to leave those off this list to […]
