Mage Prince is full of family, friends, and conversation – it’s noisy and brimming with life, letting you feel like you have a window into the world they are living in. That ‘life noise’ goes a long way in helping to temper that darker subject matter.
Path of Ruin by Tim Paulson
Path of Ruin explores answers to those questions, and delivers a clever, entrancing story that garners surprise after surprise until its very end.
SPFBO: The Dragon’s Banker by Scott Warren
In the next few weeks, we’ll review our semi-finalists in the same order as we announced them, starting with The Dragon’s Banker by Scott Warren. Come and see what Team RockStarlit thought of it!
Kings of Ash by Richard Nell
Kings of Ash was a very strong follow-up to Kings of Paradise. I am really looking forward to completing this series with Kings of Heaven which came out a couple of weeks ago.
Smoke and Stone by Michael R. Fletcher
Smoke and Stone is the tale of what happens when mortals are forced to fight the gods’ war while blood flows through the streets as smoke fills the lungs of Akachi and Nuru. Fletcher’s world yet again is relentlessly brutal and dread-filled. And yet, his writing is like a drug you keep wanting more and more of. Give me the next dose!
SPFBO 6 The Reaping – Nick
Welcome to the fifth and last SPFBO 6 reaping! It’s Nick’s turn to cut 5 of his books and announce his semi-finalist!
Captain Moxley and the Embers of the Empire by Dan Hanks
Overall, I really enjoyed Captain Moxley and the Embers of the Empire. If you like adventure fantasy and Indiana Jones then you definitely will love this adrenaline-filled book. Dan Hanks can be an exciting new name in Fantasy in the coming years.
Los Nefilim by T. Frohock
I’m sorry it took me so long to get on the Los Nefilim bandwagon, but now I’m here I’m going to hold on tight. This series is quickly becoming one of my favorites and I absolutely will make sure to look out for anything T. Frohock writes in the future.
SPFBO 6 The Reaping – Peter
Welcome to the fourth SPFBO 6 reaping! It’s Peter’s turn to cut 4 of his books and announce his semi-finalist!
Temple of the Oracle by Jeffrey L. Kohanek
Quick paced and actiony fun! I find these are nice bite-size breather books to read in between those heavier and darker themed chonkers that have filled up my kindle.
