Azarinth Healer Book One: A LitRPG Adventure by Rhaegar

4/5 Stars, With a psychotic hero, this was a surprisingly fun read First up, I enjoyed this book, more so as I got deeper into the story but I will say it did start in that rather cliched way of being in our world one minute and somewhere else the next with nobody any theContinue reading “Azarinth Healer Book One: A LitRPG Adventure by Rhaegar”

The Poppy War by R. F. Kuang

4/5 Stars Masterfully penned, vividly brutal, wonderfully unique fantasy I borrowed this book from my son who recommended it to me and after hearing much about it I was intrigued to give it a read.

The Grand Game – Books 1 -8 By Tom Elliot

5/5 Stars – (Adult, YA) Unputdownable LitRPG shenanigans. Well, it has been a little while since my last review and it’s not my fault, really it’s not.

Midshipman Henry Gallant At The Academy by H. Peter Alesso

4/5 Stars (YA) Richard Bolitho in Space. I’ve had this book on my reading list for a while and I was overdue a sci-fi read so here we are. It’s pretty softcore sci-fi, with the science and tech easy to follow with enough to it that it satisfied my itch. It is a coming-of-age taleContinue reading “Midshipman Henry Gallant At The Academy by H. Peter Alesso”

5/5 stars, Fun-filled, imaginative and gory LitRPG with Princess Donut the talking cat…oh and Carl Got this on a whim,  looking at the high rating and large number of them I took a peek inside and found I liked the easy tone, the snarky banter and the gory action.
