Pushy: Ahh…Jane and David. It was with immense pleasure that I delved back into the world that Mary Robinette Kowal built for them. Magical is such an inadequate word for the rich, lush, amazing alternate history Regency era world of the Glamourist Histories, and Without A Summer is as exceedingly enchanting as its predecessors. Heather: Stepping back […]

My Thoughts: I’ve really loved the Experiment in Terror series so far, but all six books have been written in the female main character’s point of view. Come Alive is the first book where we get an unfiltered and uncensored look at what it is to be Dex Foray, and I’m pleasantly surprised to say […]
