The Night Awaken by Mary Higgins Clark

The Night Awakens is an anthology of shorts stories by different authors. They are well done, sprinkled with madness and love.

One is about a reporter who hates her job, and how her fear of the dark gives her boss an idea to commit a murder. The other is about an underpaid employee who is abused by his boss and how with a witch helps him get the upper…

Castledance, Vol I (From the Chronicles of Fiarah) by K. L. Morgan

Castledance is a very well-written book of fantasy. I love the story, the plot, and the romance in it. The colorful people and places are vividly described in its pages. Stories about elfs, delfs, trolls, and humans mixed with magic makes for a real page-turner.

It was easy enough that a person with English as a second language (me) could understand it.

Not only do I understand the wording…

The House of Pendragon Book one: The Firebrand by Debra A. Kemp (review for readersfavorite.com)

 This is a well-written book about a descendant of Arthur and one of the best Arthurian books on the market.

It is the story of a girl named Lin and her brother Dafydd and the courage she gives to all the slave she lives with. She and her brother were left alone after their mother died one night. Their mother was a slave of Arthur’s half-sister Morgause and thus they, too, were her possessions. Lin had seen a life of hard work, beatings, rape, famine and disease since she was old…

The Bent Sword by Stephen Gashler

I had the pleasure to hear Stephen Gashler read a piece of this book. It was clear, easy to follow, and funny. It’s a clean book that will bring families closer together and give hope to young men that they can defeat their worst enemy—Boredom.

The story begins with four friends on a quest to save their kingdom. They honor and love their princess and will do anything to be heroes. That is, until three of the friends decide it is time to change the rules. Two want a more active role in…
