Book Review: The Name of the Wind, by Patrick Rothfuss

In a backwater town, a man with a hidden past spends his days running a well-kept inn. But then a traveller known as The Chronicler comes upon him one night and recognises him for who he really is; Kvothe, the Kingkiller. The book (and the series) opens with Kvothe passing himself off as a humble […]

Book Review: Rage of the Old Gods, by Tyler Edwards

My rating: 3 of 5 stars Gamers and movie-goers are probably now going to be familiar with mechs and giant robots, especially in content from the sf genre. Think Pacific Rim and Transformers, or Armoured Core and Zone of Enders. But how many times have you come across giant robots trying to wipe out humanity […]

Book Review: Mockingjay (Hunger Games)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars Mockingjay is the third book in the Hunger Games trilogy. I started reading this trilogy back in September 2011 and have had this final part sitting on my kindle for nearly eight months. Its not that I didn’t want to read it right away. I wanted to draw out […]

Book Review: Healer’s Touch by Deb E. Howell

Howell’s Healer’s Touch is an interesting twist on a stock fantasy character class. Instead of Healers being gentle and mild-mannered clerics, they are highly feared by the populace and coveted by military powers for their destructive abilities. Healer’s Touch title character, Llew is a street urchin who has suffered abandonment by both parents at a […]

Book Review: Life of Pi, by Yann Martel

My rating: 5 of 5 stars A boy on a boat with a tiger hardly sounds like something that could hold your attention over 401 pages. You will find the Life of Pi filed under Literary works, although Wikipedia claims its a fantasy adventure, which I am sure many readers would contest. But the story […]

Review: The Golden Queen, A Masterclass in Resonance

My rating: 4 of 5 stars David Wolverton (better known by his pseudonym, David Farland) is a master of utilizing resonance in writing, a fact that is starkly evident in the Golden Queen. The book resonates strongly with the Star Wars mythos, which makes sense as Wolverton has written a number of Star Wars expanded […]
