This is a book I would describe as way too busy. Though it’s action packed, there’s just too much to deal with in one story – from dragons, other worlds, kidnapping, scattered references to the legend of Camelot, to constantly running from things out to get them, I was tired when I finished reading. Talk…
There’s a lot of urban fantasy and paranormal romance out there on shelves now, but a good fantasy romance is harder to find. Readers of Breath of Fire won’t find werewolves, vampires, or edgy, streetwise leads, but if you like dragons and epic, otherworldly tales, this book tells a wonderful story. I can only summarize…
Though I don’t really generally care for shapeshifter romances, dragon romances appeal to me because they’re often mythical, somewhat animalistic, and incredibly sensual. The Dragon Master combines all these elements with unique characters to make an interesting tale. Working on her MBA and building up her family’s restaurant business doesn’t leave Carol Juan much time…
Favorite books are funny things. Much like relationships, they are never perfect – they just have to be perfect for you. Shana Abé works for me. I recognize the problems in her books, but, for the most part, I just don’t mind. Take Queen of Dragons, for instance, the third and latest book in her…
Master of Dragons is the latest in Angela Knight’s Mageverse, the alternate world of Avalon and King Arthur. This is not the King Arthur and the Round Table of the Dark Ages, though, and as a result, for much of the time I spent reading the book, I felt like I was involved in a…
It’s a given, for me, that any book Shana Abe creates will be a beautifully written, lyrical story that captures all your senses. She could probably turn my grocery list into some type of poetry. But is that enough? No. If there isn’t enough plot and character dimension, all the lush descriptions would fall to…
His Majesty’s Dragon is straight fantasy, no romance whatsoever, but it does have, at its heart, a very lovely and emotionally rich relationship between a man and his newly hatched dragon. Captain Will Laurence and his naval crew capture a French frigate in what Laurence assumes to be a routine skirmish. What’s hardly routine is…
Before I begin this review, I must comment on the horrid cover. Although the hero of this book does wear a purple cape and a Norse hat with horns, if the guy on this cover came within ten feet of me with that expression on his face, I would run screaming in the other direction….
