Historia
The Merry Band of Pirates stopped the enemy from stealing a Sentinel, and destroyed its Elder starship, so why weren’t the Pirates planning a victory party? The enemy was not what they thought it was. It was much, much worse.

Alanson, you'd better be writing your fingers off right now.
Revisado: 09-24-24
It's kind of stunning that after 17 books, I'm only MORE invested in this series. And it's equally stunning that I now desperately need number 18.
As I reflect on what I read, there was some brilliant foreshadowing to the climax of the book, and the pickle everyone is in now. Joe's seat-of-his-pants problem solving may have fallen short this time.
How much do you give away in a review? I don't want to give anything away, other than my stomach is in knots at that ending right now, and I might even need some antacids.
I think I may need to do some yoga or something, maybe watch some cute puppy videos while Craig Alanson and RC Bray work to relieve me of this stress.

Historia
My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

I really enjoyed this story, and frankly, I look forward to the next one. I also loved Duke, and want just as much of him in the next book. When IS the next book, by the way??

Wonderful job...one SMALL note.
Revisado: 09-23-21
I enjoyed the story immensely. It's a fascinating character study of someone struggling to deal with the traumas of her past in a way that also keeps her life both complicated and affords her opportunities that seem to help her career, ironically.
I only have one thing that bothered me just a little bit, and only in that it would pull me out of the story at times: why would Beula (and other Chinese characters) have a Cantonese accent? The author didn't mention one, but there it is. I understand that differentiating character voices is a challenge, but assuming an Asian character is an immigrant or foreigner is...something that perhaps the narrator should reconsider in the future. Otherwise, she did a wonderful job, as always.

Historia
Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. He's a normal Italian teenager - obsessed with music, food, and girls - but his days of innocence are numbered. When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior. In an attempt to protect him, Pino's parents force him to enlist as a German soldier - a move they think will keep him out of combat.

Completely engrossing.
Revisado: 01-16-18
I absolutely loved this book. The author brings Pino's story to glorious, harrowing life. It's amazing how many people Pino encountered who made their marks on history, and to see that Pino also made his own mark.
Possible spoiler:
"Mon General" called himself a man of shadows, but Pino was, in his own way, a man of shadows himself.

Historia
Picking up from A Discovery of Witches' cliff-hanger ending, Shadow of Night takes reluctant witch Diana Bishop and vampire geneticist Matthew Clairmont on a trip through time to Elizabethan London, where they are plunged into a world of spies, magic, and a coterie of Matthew's old friends, the School of Night. As the search for Ashmole 782—the lost and enchanted manuscript whose mystery first pulled Diana and Matthew into one another's orbit—deepens and Diana seeks out a witch to tutor her in magic, the net of Matthew's past tightens around them.

Love this.
Revisado: 12-08-17
I highly recommend this series. I've read a great deal of fantasy, especially of the vampire/witch/romance variety. Harkness breathes new life into a genre that has lately become stale. Also, the performance of the book is wonderful. She reads it so well, and does a great job of capturing a male voice without the artificiality of trying too hard to deepen her voice enough. I highly appreciated it.
