Read my reviews of previous books in the Immortals Descending series: Storm Front (#1) | Shadowfall (#2) The latest book in this fantastic series gives off some pretty distinct horror vibes at the start, but only to evoke the proper mood for what haunts Cillian throughout the rest of the book. He is an unwitting victim inContinue reading “Book Review: Daybreak (Immortals Descending #3) by Iris Foxglove”

Book Review: Shadowfall (Immortals Descending #2) by Iris Foxglove
Read my review of the first book in the Immortals Descending series, Storm Front. Like the previous book in this series, this one starts with a fascinating origin story. This time, it’s not the origin story of a god, but of the inciting event to his evolution. Foxglove kicks us off with lots of questions,Continue reading “Book Review: Shadowfall (Immortals Descending #2) by Iris Foxglove”
A Year in Reading: 2022
Every year, Goodreads invites me to its annual reading challenge with a helpfully suggested goal of 12 books. Every year, I bump that goal up to 50, because I figure that’s always doable unless the apocalypse occurs. In the last few years, I’ve more than blown that number out of the water. Here’s my finalContinue reading “A Year in Reading: 2022”
Book Review: Storm Front (Immortals Descending #1) by Iris Foxglove
I started reading the books set in this fantasy world because I was interested in how the authors play with the biological power exchange facet. Now that I’m happily sucked into the third series, I’m almost entirely here for the worldbuilding and amazing characters and relationship they have developed. The power exchange bit is aContinue reading “Book Review: Storm Front (Immortals Descending #1) by Iris Foxglove”
Book Review: Pieces of Silver (Starian Tale) by Iris Foxglove
This novella works best if you’ve read the main Starian Cycle series of novels, mostly for the identities and relationships between all of the secondary characters who make up the Starian royal family, their consorts, and their important officials. However, the narrators for this particular story are the palace guard captain and royal tailor, whichContinue reading “Book Review: Pieces of Silver (Starian Tale) by Iris Foxglove”

Book Review: Spring of the Wolf (Seasons of the Lukoi #2) by Iris Foxglove
Read my review of the first Seasons of the Lukoi novel, Winter of the Owl. Every time I think I can’t possibly enjoy the world of this epic fantasy romance series more, the author(s) uncover another stunning layer.

Book Review: Winter of the Owl (Seasons of the Lukoi #1) by Iris Foxglove
I came to this series because I’d previously read the Starian Cycle books by the same author, though I did not review them for my blog. Foxglove has created a truly expansive world in that it is not necessary to read the previous books to appreciate anything about this story. The forced-proximity element of thisContinue reading “Book Review: Winter of the Owl (Seasons of the Lukoi #1) by Iris Foxglove”
