Excellent book, recommended (#2 in series, read Curse of Chalidon first for background material, although that is also recommended)

The first quarter of this was ok and I was just following along, wondering if it would grab me when suddenly the main character (redacted) and I was completely hooked and had trouble putting it down! As with all the author’s works, recommended!
Lea finished reading Ep.#1 - "Aurora : CV-01" by Ryk Brown
Feels like schlocky space opera, hoping it’s fun!
Well, surprising no one, this wasn’t very good. The plot line was a bit predictable, yet underdone, the writing was only ok and I found it really irritating that all but one of the non lead characters were female. Apparently there are like 16 books in series. That’ll be “no” from me

This is rather good, although the ending is a little abrupt
Lea finished reading Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell by Kate Reading
A nice short
(I keep finding this short stuff when looking for novels. I wonder if I should count them…)
Lea reviewed The Original by Brandon Sanderson
The Original (AudiobookFormat)
Thought provoking work
5 stars
I was disappointed that this turned out to be so short - novella - as I enjoyed it a lot. Imagine a world where nanites have made us all rich, but at the cost of taking away all the difficulties of life that keep us interested. Some have rebelled against this, and in the midst of all that, there has been a murder, and a young woman must figure out why she did it. (no, thats not a typo!) If Sanderson and Kowal collaborate again, I will be reading it!
Lea reviewed Ysabel by Guy Gavriel Kay
Ysabel is a fantasy novel by Canadian author Guy Gavriel Kay. It was first published …
Ysabel!
5 stars
Content warning surprise! This is a Fionavar sequel! (although you wouldnt need to read it first to enjoy the book)
Like all Kay's work, this is excellent
