ALiCE – Book Review

ALiCE by Avalon Roselin Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5 stars) This story is not for the faint of heart. Delve deep into the terror of psyche and of nightmares in the world of ALiCE. The tale takes the common elements of Alice in Wonderland and spins them into a distorted story that questions sanity. Is it a dream?Continue reading “ALiCE – Book Review”

Maple Street – Book Review

Maple Street by A.M. Dorhauer Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5 stars) You’ll never notice Maple Street, but it’s there, like any road you might drive on during the day or at night. It’s filled with monsters, witches, ghosts and mummies…all the creatures from your dreams (or your nightmares). But the creatures of Maple Street aren’t out to hurtContinue reading “Maple Street – Book Review”

Stellar Eclipse: Cloudless Rain – Book Review

Stellar Eclipse: Cloudless Rain by Avalon Roselin Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5 stars) Truthfully, I’ll be frank: I went into Cloudless Rain not sure if I would like it. Usually from the get-go, stories with a mix of human and non-human creatures make me wary (let’s disregard sci-fi with aliens though – that’s a different way of looking atContinue reading “Stellar Eclipse: Cloudless Rain – Book Review”

Tedenbarr of Have Lath – Book Review

Tedenbarr of Have Lath by Esther T. Jones Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3.5/5 stars) Tedenbarr of Have Lath introduces a uniquely complex world that has many elements of well thought out world building and an array of different characters. While the story itself is a rather traditional hero’s journey, it keeps you rooting for the protagonist to returnContinue reading “Tedenbarr of Have Lath – Book Review”
