Review: Drama Queen

By Vance Bastian August 18, 2015 August 19, 2015  audiobook, Book Review, comedy, drama queen, joe cosentino, murder

Title:  Drama Queen Author:  Joe Cosentino Review: (I won a copy in an online competition… and I’m so glad I did!) While far too sexy to be called a “cozy mystery,” Drama Queen adds an in-the-buff zing to the normally staid, small community murder story. I love that the author …

Title: Blue on Black Author: Carole Cummings Review: I did not realize how badly I needed steampunk cowboys and Tesla trains in my life. The author of Blue On Black took me on a ride to a new horizon with this one. She favored Tesla’s studies in directing energy (electricity) …

Review: The Haunting of Timber Manor

By Vance Bastian July 30, 2015 August 19, 2015  Book Review, F.E. Feeley Jr., The Haunting of Timber Manor

Title: The Haunting of Timber Manor Author: F.E. Feeley Jr. Review: The Haunting of Timber Manor delivers a solid study in contrasts. It’s dangerous, yet tender. The author goes to some very dark places, yet dangles a sliver of hope before us. Daniel, the main character, uncovers a family history that …

Review: Dark Love

By Vance Bastian July 21, 2015 August 19, 2015  Book Review, dark love, stephen del mar

Title: Dark Love Author: Stephen Del Mar Review: Holy cow – I loved the spirit of this novel! Any time an author says, “Sparkly vampires? Screw that, wait until you see what I my vampire can do!” He also dove into the origins of fairies, and the real substance behind …

Review: I’ll Still Be There

By Vance Bastian July 3, 2015 August 19, 2015  Book Review, I'll Still Be There, Keelan Ellis, Paranormal Romance

Title: I’ll Still Be There Author: Keelan Ellis Review: I’ll Still Be There by Keelan Ellis was a surprisingly touching read. Surprising in that I went into it not knowing what I myself was in the mood for. It turns out, I was in the mood for a double-barreled love story. The …

Title: Quinn’s Gambit (Aura 1) Author: Bellora Quinn & Angel Martinez Review: I love magic in the modern world. Once I realized the authors had used magic to conjure rifts between two worlds, and then dropped fantasy beings INTO our world, I did a very, very happy dance. Have you ever wondered …

Review: Monolith

By Vance Bastian June 12, 2015 August 19, 2015  Albert Nothlit, Book Review, Monolith, Science Fiction

Title: Monolith Author: Albert Nothlit Review: I love that the author is delivering more LGBTQ heroes to Science Fiction!  In this tale, Mark is a surgeon fighting the effects of carpal tunnel. He’s no longer operating. In fact, he’s sliding deeper into depression as he withdraws from the world. His loveable, meddling mother …

By Vance Bastian June 3, 2015 August 19, 2015  Book Review, Brandon Witt, Men of Myth, Submerging Inferno

Title: Submerging Inferno (Men of Myth Book 1) Author: Brandon Witt Review: On the surface you may think the first Men of Myth book, Submerging Inferno, is another “I don’t know my origin” story. You can certainly read it for that if you want. But I encourage you to read it as …

Review: Lexington Black

By Vance Bastian June 2, 2015 August 19, 2015  Book Review, Lexington Black, Savannah Smythe

Title: Lexington Black Author: Savannah Smythe Review: Lexington Black by Savannah Smythe delivers craftily-hidden insight into the way power plays out in men’s lives. Having just been made redundant (laid off), Robin is powerless in his marriage. He’s powerless to stop the divorce. And when you meet his family, it’s obvious neither …
