Angela’s Minis- Reviews for books by Rin Chupeco, Catriona Ward, and Megan Bannen 

September 15, 2022 by Angela 3 Comments

Silver Under Nightfall by Rin ChupecoLGBTQ FantasyPublished 9/13/2022 by Gallery/Saga PressARC I haven't read a vampire fantasy in a good long while, so when I spied this for review I immediately snapped it up. The first thing you should know is the worldbuilding in Silver Under Nightfall is quite unique for a genre that is full almost to bursting with scary and even sexy men with teeth. This book reads like a regency historical polyam romance with horror and fantasy elements. Lots of Continue Reading

Review: The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen

August 26, 2022 by Melinda 6 Comments

The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan BannenFantasyAugust 23, 2022 by Orbit BooksARC Review by: Melinda This book was such an incredible and weird delight to read, I loved it so much. But it has a plot that’s hard to pitch well.  Mercy is an undertaker, and Hart kills zombies and is required to take their bodies to specific funeral homes. The two hate each other from their very first meeting, which was a complete disaster. They both are intensely lonely and end up writing Continue Reading

Review: Hot Blooded by Amanda Carlson

May 20, 2013 by Tori 6 Comments

Hot Blooded (Jessica McClain #2) by Amanda Carlson Urban Fantasy April 23, 2013 Orbit Reviewed by Tori It hasn't been the best week for Jessica McClain. Her mate has been kidnapped by a Goddess hell-bent on revenge --- but Jessica is playing for keeps. Because she's the only female werewolf in town...it comes with its own set of rules...and powers. Aided by two vamps, two loyal Pack members, and one very reluctant human, Jessica must rescue her man while coming to terms with what being Continue Reading

September 14, 2012 by Tori 4 Comments

Review: Blue-Blooded Vamp by Jaye Wells

June 7, 2012 by Tori 4 Comments

Blue Blooded Vamp (Sabina Kane #5) by Jaye Wells Urban Fantasy May 22, 2012 Orbit Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “It’d be super embarrassing if you got eaten ten steps away from your destiny“ Blue Blooded Vamp is the conclusion to the wild ride of Sabina Kane, vampire assassin and mage extraordinaire. An addicting noir urban fantasy blend of horror and humor. This series has led me on an intoxicating roller coaster ride of infinite proportions. Deception and lies are the Continue Reading

Review: Cold Magic by Kate Elliott

December 14, 2010 by Tori 8 Comments

Cold Magic by Kate Elliott (Spiritwalker #1) September 2, 2010 Fantasy, Steampunk Paperback, 528 Pages Orbit Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote:”When I saw you coming down the stairs that evening, it was as if I were seeing the other half of my soul descending to greet me.” Catherine (Cat) Hassi Barahal’s life is about the change drastically when she is mistaken for her cousin and forced in to marriage with a cold mage she doesn’t know. When it comes to light that she is not her Continue Reading

Review: Married with Zombies by Jesse Petersen

August 24, 2010 by Mandi 8 Comments

Married With Zombies by Jesse Petersen September 1, 2010 Urban Fantasy Paperback, 241 Pages Orbit Reviewed by Mandi I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I like zombie books so when I saw this available at BookExpo America, I picked it up right away. Many don’t share my opinion – or at least don’t like it when the hero or heroine is a zombie. I mean, if vital parts fall off, the romance is kind of over, yes? But Married With Zombies gives us two very mortal protagonists Continue Reading

April 3, 2010 by Mandi 19 Comments

Changeless by Gail Carriger (Parasol Protectorate #2) March 30, 2010 Historical Paranormal Steampunk Paperback, 374 Pages Orbit Reviewed by MandiWhy I read: I loved the first in the series, Soulless and preordered my copy of Changeless long ago.Favorite Quote: Anything out of Lord Akeldama’s mouth - “I suppose, you know all about it, you high-powered political daffodil, you.” Preternatural Alexia Maccon (she was born without a soul) and her werewolf husband, Lord Woolsey, have Continue Reading
