REVIEW: Black Powder War by Naomi Novik

JayneB- ReviewsDragon / Fantasy Romance / Naomi-Novik5 Comments

Dear Ms. Novik, I’ve now found out that even a lesser Novik book is still pretty good. But this one should come with a warning to load up on lots of chocolate, a glass of wine or some Prozac before starting. Jaysus, there were a lot of depressing events to ... more >

JaneBook Reviews / C Reviews Category / C- ReviewsAphrodisia / Dragon3 Comments

Dear Ms. Betts: What to say. Your contribution to the Pure Sex anthology featured a contemporary heroine whose work/relationship dilemna was spot on.
