Historia
Beneath the still surface of a lake lurks a monster with needle sharp teeth. Hungry and ready to pounce. Jenny Greenteeth has never spoken to a human before, but when a witch is thrown into her lake, something makes Jenny decide she's worth saving. Temperance doesn't know why her village has suddenly turned against her, only that it has something to do with the malevolent new pastor. Though they have nothing in common, these two must band together on a magical quest to defeat the evil that threatens Jenny's lake and Temperance's family, as well as the very soul of Britain.

The story did credit to the Arthurian legend and some of the mythological beings that supposedly inhabited Britain
Revisado: 03-11-25
I’d like this book, though it took me a bit of time to get into it less than a chapter. The story is interesting and it takes quite a few turns and twists. I really liked the weaving of the art and legend in it and the use of the Faye Court and the mythological beasts

The history goes pretty quickly.

I agree with the other positive reviewers however this volume needs an accompanying set of maps and lists like the First volume on the ancient world.

Another great story in the town of midnight

I enjoyed this book is much, if not more than The Midnight Crossing, her book one. I am anxious to see how and what we learn about all the other odd characters in town.

I wish I knew what was going on
Revisado: 06-20-23
I have read Wells' Murderbot stories and enjoyed them. I very much looked forward to reading this new fantasy but the reader's delivery made it hard to follow. There are a lot of characters and names so one needs to understand the story as it unfolds. The staccato delivery of the reader was annoying to me as was his accent. I may read the Kindle version though I enjoy listening to books more. I may just have to bite the bullet and read it as I think it is a good story.

Historia
1468. A young priest, Christopher Fairfax, arrives in a remote Exmoor village to conduct the funeral of his predecessor. The land around is strewn with ancient artifacts - coins, fragments of glass, human bones - which the old parson used to collect. Did his obsession with the past lead to his death? Fairfax becomes determined to discover the truth. Over the course of the next six days, everything he believes - about himself, his faith, and the history of his world - will be tested to destruction.

Interesting but I I must have missed something.
Revisado: 02-23-23
I thought this was an interesting story. And I can see how this post apocalyptic civilization would have risen, but I missed somewhere why there were two sleeps, and in the end I’m not sure whether the protagonist lived or died.

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 loved the X force series and the Mavericks series. But this by far has been my favorite book. My only question is, when is the next one coming out?

Historia
Centuries ago, the murder of a beloved king tore apart the Kingdom of Caledun. The land was plunged into chaos and thousands perished. A new order was established in an attempt to return Caledun to its former glory. It failed, but in its place rose the beginnings of the Code. During this same period, the mystical caretakers of the Great Wood retreated from the world of Kal Maran, their disappearance an ominous harbinger of the suffering that was to follow. The Great Wood now grows out of control. Cities, towns, and villages have fallen before the relentless march of the forest.

I'm confused
Revisado: 05-06-22
I think it is mostly the British accent of the reader but because of the names and the fact that it is auditory and not visual, I had a hard time keeping track of the characters. Also, names often were similar. Pretty good story. Nice descriptive writing but lots going on and so many characters. I probably will not buy the next one.

Historia
The daughter of a Legion war hero, fighting was in Andien Broxin's blood. But the battles Republic marines face on strange and alien worlds are a far cry from the vaunted, brutal, no-holds-barred conflicts fought at the edge of the galaxy by the elite legionnaires. Until a devastating war erupts right in the Republic’s stellar backyard. Newly stationed on a mid-core planet being harassed by terrorist revolutionaries, Andien and her fellow “hullbusters” find themselves right in the middle of a desperate fight for survival.

Sad that this book was short but liked the female reader reading military space action. This is a good balance I think of action and reflection. I hope this is just the jumping off point to the tale of the first woman Legionnaire.

Very depressing but worth listening to
Revisado: 05-08-20
This account of one person's journey into and out of the nightmare of the holocaust is unrelenting in its realism. I had a hard time staying with it because of this but am glad that I did if only to reinforce the message that those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it. This is one of the darkest episodes in our history and we have to hear the truth.

Historia
The world will end on Saturday. Next Saturday. Just before dinner, according to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655. The armies of Good and Evil are amassing and everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture. And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist.

I began the read with amusement but it became too predictable. My credits are too precious.
