Performance is excellent
Revisado: 03-26-25
The novel started well. Really a good narrator. But I just couldn't get into the story.

Historia
Greymond, the Scattered Kingdom, has been without a king for hundreds of years, a place ruled by squabbling barons and dukes. Occasionally, rumors arise: a king of the old blood has returned to claim his throne. These days, such claims are met with groans and eye-rolls. Pretenders abound . . . and are generally ignored. But scheming powers are plotting, machinations that have been in the works for years. This time . . . enter Merrik Niles.

Brilliant!

What can I say? The writing is smart and entertaining, the main character is redeemable, and the plot unfolds brilliantly. I'm starting the second book today!

Historia
Picture rippling muscles, clad in magical armor, perhaps, artfully splattered with the viscera of foes smote in twain. Or...ooh...alternatively, a severely tasteful robe, dusted - equally artfully - with the ashes of enemies immolated with eldritch fyre. Now picture these paragons of heroism sitting astride their muscled warhorses, surrounded by the cheering, garland-throwing peasants of a hamlet they have saved from the blight. Now, throw that image out, because this isn’t that story.

From the start of this series to the end, well done! Buroker's characters... the action... the ups and downs... I'm going to go find a new one of her books to read.

Historia
When Finlay Ashowan joins the staff of the King and Queen of Daxaria, he’s an enigma. No one knows where he comes from or how he came to be where he is, which suits Fin just fine. He’s satisfied simply serving as the royal cook, keeping nosy passersby out of his kitchen, and concocting some truly uncanny meals. But Fin’s secret identity doesn’t stay hidden for long. After all, it’s not every day a house witch and his kitten familiar, Kraken, take to meddling in imperial affairs.

Written by AI? Disappointing
Revisado: 10-11-23
Although the story started out well, the further I got into it, the more it sounded like it was written by chatGPT or some other AI. The cliche's multiplied as the story advanced, to the point that it was painful. I managed to get to the end-- cringing but I did it. If you are a reader with more sophisticated taste in terms of the use of the English language in story creation, avoid this one. As I finished the story, I kept feeling like I had been swindled. I thought I bought a novel, but instead I got canned goods.

Pet Peeve. Triggered.
Revisado: 08-15-23
The novel starts with the protagonist participating in gossip about other people at a party. Talking about other people behind their backs is presented as a normal and fun way of spending the evening instead of the toxic social habit that it can be -- which bothers me all the more precisely because backbiting is so often presented as innocuous. That said, I recognize this is my own personal pet peeve, and that such an introduction to the story and the protagonist may not bother other readers.

Historia
All across Scotland, the resistance movement is growing in both strength and numbers. For the first time in five generations, the Mages are afraid—and it's all because of one woman. But Mairi knows where the real power lies and that it is the Mages who maintain control of the country. She has become the poster girl for the resistance and her magic is growing stronger by the day. That doesn't mean, however, that she has any real chance of succeeding against the might of the Mages. And yet strange things are afoot.

Revisado: 07-15-23
This one was a disappointment. The writing just wasn't as smart as her other novels. I enjoy this author, but it was a struggle to finish this one. Nightingale felt like a placeholder.

Sleepless Nights
Revisado: 02-10-23
I stayed up way tooooooooo late for two nights in a row because I couldn't put it down. Exquisite writing, keen suspense, and a narrator to do them justice. If you are a fantasy-fiction fan, and you've not read Stephen King novels because his usual genre isn't your thing, I can assure you that this novel is worth the read.
