Review: Ashlords by Scott Reintgen

Posted on April 29, 2020 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Ashlords is the first novel in a new duology by Scott Reintgen. Though I don’t yet know what the duology will end up being called (it’ll be interesting to find out though!). This is the same author that brought us the Nyxia Triad, so I knew that it was going to be well worth diving into! Continue reading →

Review: Horus Rising by Dan Abnett

Posted on April 26, 2020 by Liz (AKA Cat)

The Horus Heresy is arguably one of the biggest events to happen in the lore of Warhammer 40,000. And no, I’m not just talking about the number of books in the series (though there is that). This was an event (or rather, series of events) that impacted a massive amount of the universe. And the effects are long-lasting. Continue reading →

Review: Starsight by Brandon Sanderson

Posted on April 24, 2020 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Starsight is the second novel in Brandon Sanderson’s Skyward series, and it is as dramatic and full of chaos as ever. I don’t think Spensa knows how to keep still – or how to keep herself out of trouble, for that matter. Continue reading →

Review: Belle Revolte by Linsey Miller

Posted on April 22, 2020 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Belle Revolte is the latest high fantasy novel to spring from the mind of the one and only Linsey Miller.

It was the rumor that there’s an ace main character that drew me to this book, and I imagine I’m not the only one. Continue reading →

Posted on April 19, 2020 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Iron Company is the second novel in the Empire Army series from Black Library (the world of Warhammer Fantasy). That being said, you can easily dive right in at this point and have no trouble following along – I did. And I have no regrets about that fact. Continue reading →

Review: Handmade Tile: Design, Create, and Install Custom Tiles

Posted on April 18, 2020 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Handmade Tile is not the sort of book I expected to come across when browsing art books one day. And yet it immediately caught my attention. There’s something so appealing, both about this book and about the idea of being able to craft one’s own tile. Continue reading →
