Runelight (The Aenigma Lights #1) by J.A. Andrews – Audiobook Review by Janelle Phillips I’ve enjoyed previous J.A. Andrews books I’ve read, so when I saw Runelight pop up on Audible, I knew I had to grab it. It’s a behemoth of a book, but any fantasy reader will love that, and I was n…

The Mortal Blade (Magelands Eternal Siege #1) by Christopher Mitchell – Book Review by Janelle Phillips I had high hopes for this story. From the cover to the description, it seemed right up my alley. And I wasn’t disappointed. The Mortal Blade follows four characters in a City. This City is ru…

Dragon Mage by M.L. Spencer – Book Review by Janelle Phillips Sometimes one comes across a tome so fantastic, so epic, that it’s even hard to know how to review. Dragon Mage was one such story for me. Everything, from characters, to worldbuilding, to th…

City in the Dragon’s Eye (Dragon Reich #1) by Jordan Loyal Short – Book Review by Janelle Phillips This was exactly the type of romp I needed to end the year. Short has created an engaging, hilarious, dark, fun fantasy in a way not many can.  First, worldbuilding. Set in a land much like po…

Five Broken Blades by Mai Corland – Book Review by Janelle Phillips I had no idea what to expect when I picked this up. The only reasons I did were 1) Beautiful cover and art (I know, I know, so shallow of me) and 2) I had never heard of Mai Corland and I wanted to…

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas – Book Review by Janelle Phillips I’ve previously read A Throne of Glass by this same author, and while it was fairly well done, I didn’t continue the series. So I balked when I saw she wrote a new series, and didn’t get around to …
