I seem to have picked up quite a few books in multi-author series lately, and here I am with another one, H.L. Day’s King of Lies, which is part of the eight book Mayhem Manuscripts Season One: 1nf3ction series a set of dystopian romances (which can be read in any order) set in a world…
The Quarterlands brings Xanthe Walter’s compelling Dark Water series to an exciting and thoroughly satisfying close, trying up all the loose ends and resolving the intricate mysteries at the heart of the series. As this is a story spanning four books, it’s essential to have read the first three before this one, and this review…
Claire Kent’s Sanctuary is the sixth book in her dystopian erotic romance series Kindled and follows the events of Citadel. While previous books in the series have been loosely connected and easily read as standalones, it’s recommended that these two be read in publication order for continuity. Eight years after a meteorite destroyed civilization as…
Ever since I read Kit Rocha’s dystopian post-apocalyptic Beyond series, I’ve had an interest in romance books that are similar (no zombies required though). Claire Kent (a.k.a Noelle Adams) started a new series, Kindled, in the same vein in 2021 and Citadel is book five. It’s the first of a duology about two sisters featuring…
If there’s one thing readers can learn from Kit Rocha’s dystopian world, it’s that we’ve got roughly sixty years to get a grip on society before it all goes FUBAR. Because in the post-apocalyptic world that went dark after the Flares (the solar storms that damaged global power grids), darkness isn’t the worst thing that…
Romeo and Juliet – but in space, with the addition of some Wuthering Heights thrown on top of the pile. That’s the theme of Kathryn Barker’s Waking Romeo, which plays with and modernizes the play’s tropes. It’s dizzying, it’s messy, but it’s nonetheless compelling because it’s fun and inventive. Overall, the book will likely please…
Why should YA have all the dystopia fun? Elle Kennedy takes the post-apocalyptic US in a decidedly adult direction in Claimed, the first book in her Outlaws series of erotic romances. Rather than marry the psychopath who wants her hand, Hudson Lane fled her privileged life in the city and joined outlaws living in what…
Curious about a gender-based dystopia where women have been erased as a concept and testosterone, inborn and taken via shots, rules the day? Check out Y Negative. Ember is Y-negative, a person born without a Y-chromosome. In his early years, he was forced to bear children; now, with the help of testosterone injections, he is…
We Unleash the Merciless Storm is the sequel to 2019’s We Set the Dark On Fire, a Mexican-inspired young adult fantasy novel with a fabulous female/female relationship at its core. The first installment did end on a rather sizable cliffhanger, so I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of book two. This is a duology that…
In the far-flung future, Medio has been run for thousands of years on the principle of the ancient legend of the thieving Salt God and the financially ripe Sun God. The upper crust of society are the descendants of the Sun God and his two wives; women are expected to behave in either the manner…
