I was excited to read this book by Peterfreund. I mean it’s about evil, carnivorous unicorns, how can you not be excited? It was a very creative book and pretty engaging. Astrid is your typical teenage girl, except she has a mother than has raised her on stories about evil, …
This anthology includes 5 new stories by popular paranormal authors. In all cases (except for Marr’s story) the stories are set in preexisting worlds created by the authors. My favorite of the bunch were “Ley Line Drifter” which gives you a closer look at Jenks’ family and “Rekoning” which introduced …
This was another one of those books where I wasn’t sure what to expect. I am super glad I read it though! It was a thoroughly entertaining, amusing, and heartbreaking read. Death is the narrator of this novel in the most literal sense. He follows the story of a young …
This is a book that tells the story of what happens between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy after “Pride and Prejudice” ends. It was an okay book. I was a bit disappointed in the simple dialogue and the lagging plot. Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy get married and are embarking on their …

This is the first book in the Glass trilogy by Maria v. Snyder. This book follows Opal, the glass maker involved in some of the Poison Study stories. It was an okay book; but the characters lack a lot of the charisma seen in the Poison Study series. I actually …
I had been wanting to read this book for a long time. Overall it is an interesting book with a creative premise. I thought it was okay, but it didn’t blow me away. It’s been twenty years since the fairies destroyed the human world by suffusing everything with wild magic; …
This is the first book in The Parasol Protectorate series by Gail Carriger. Best I can tell right now this going to be a trilogy. The second book in the series “Changeless” is due out April 2010. This was a fun read; very creative and fast moving. Alexia is one …
