This book was provided by Rebekah Teller in exchange for a review! I can't recall whether it was supposed to be an honest review or a dishonest one, so I'll trust my fingers to guide me towards the more preferable type. Song took me a while to get through. On one hand, Song has an... Continue Reading →
Ah, recommending the second book of a trilogy, that's a new one for this blog! The Walls of Air is the second novel in Barbara Hambly's Darwath trilogy. The second book of a trilogy is always a bit tricky; you have to find a balance between answering some of the questions that the first novel set up... Continue Reading →
Some time ago, I wrote about an appreciation thread on reddit; it was about author Barbara Hambly and her many works, which include but are not limited to vampiric noir, dark fantasy, world-jumping fun with wizards and much more! The Time of the Dark was the first amongst these recommendations, and the favourite of the... Continue Reading →
Diary Entry #0170 Mine power sizzles and crackles with a terrible itch to be used. But I mustn't allow myself any distraction for the chase grows ever closer and more heated. Strange, this heat; unnatural, even. Almost does it remind me of...but no, it cannot be. Great challenges did we overcome since the foul princeling's... Continue Reading →
Read the previous Volume here. Diary Entry #0160 I am told that I have entered the first of many identical free human kingdoms. This one shares a border with mine lands. That is what makes it special. Bah, humans are strange folk. So glad am I that I no longer fill their ranks that I could incinerate a... Continue Reading →
Movement's difficult with so many arms. You wouldn't think it was by looking at all those naked statues of four-handed sex goddesses, but it is. It really is. I wouldn't be doing much of it at all; not properly, anyway. I WILL NOT give the fat demon lord massages. No, I do not care how... Continue Reading →
New body, new set of rules! Let’s start off with movement. Nope, moving on four legs isn’t as easy as it looks. Why am I going to that hole? Wha—No, stop it! LEGS! LEEEEE— New management. I was a freelance lich in my last incarnation, but this time around…demon lords are all the buzz!... Continue Reading →
Regret my past life as a miserly old wizard. Screw that guy, he dead! No time will be spent in moral considerations, akin to (but not excluded to): “Is necromancy evil? Is angering the gods of death wise, in any world, including this one? How can my apprentices possibly be this useless, even as reanimated... Continue Reading →
I would get me a nice little ice cave, with loads of stalagmites, stalactites and the skulls of my long-dead apprentices and army comrades. I would begin raising my apprentices from the dead. They were an incompetent bunch in life—doesn’t mean that they have to remain useless in death. I would discover that death really... Continue Reading →
I would NOT mean to harm anyone with my illusion spells…It would just sort of happen. No one’s to blame, really. I would NOT cross bridges if I had the choice. These things are dangerous – shoddy masonry, demonic infestations, not to mention the rotting wood…I just don’t trust any of it. I would NOT... Continue Reading →
