  • The Comic Book Mystery

    Book 93 of the Boxcar Children Mysteries. This was a fun mystery about a serious topic of people forging other people’s work. With the advent of AI we are seeing a lot more of this with people using artists/authors good names to pass off work they never did. It is sad that this is not…

  • The Unicorn Quest

    This is book 1 of The Unicorn Quest series. If you’ve read CS Lewis’ Narnia series then this will speak to you. This story is very reminiscent of that and is a fun adventure of two sisters and the bond they share. This is an exciting adventure of sickness and healing. A fun read that…

  • The Call of the Wild

    The story of Buck who went from tame to wild in a look at a way a dog could move back to its own roots of life. This is a masterpiece that stands the test of time. Amazing in its details and brutal in its story. I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.

  • On A Pale Horse

    Book 1 of Incarnations of Immortality. This was a fun and exciting look at death from a different perspective. I have been a long time fan of Piers Anthony reading his Xanth series. That started this book is far more serious than that. However there are points that you will find humorous even ending with…

  • Kingmaker

    Book 3 of the Dragon Corsairs series. This was the concluding book of the series. It was a thrilling end to this epic series. Margaret Weis is a solid name in fantasy and in this imagined tale that is half swashbuckling and half magic / dragons. A beautiful blend that leaves an indelible memory of…

  • Escape From Grimstone Manor

    Book 1 of Monsterious. This was a middle grade book. There were a few things to warn young readers of. This could be scary for too young of readers and it does touch a bit on bathroom issues, which were unimportant to the story. All in all it was a decent story that took a…

  • In the Time of Dinosaurs

    Book 2 of the Megamorphs series. This one takes the Animorphs back to prehistoric times with a fun look at different dinosaurs and even its own take/nod at The Time Machine. Overall a fun fast read with plenty of danger and excitement. In the end it leaves you asking how man always takes his own…

  • Tree Dungeon

    Book 1 of the Divine Seed series. I will start off by saying that I loved this book. For me it fired on all cylinders. There were areas I wish he would have explored a little more. But if you have read the Divine Dungeon series then you will love this one too. They are…

  • Another Fine Myth

    Book 1 of the Myth series. This is a classic. Super fun and exciting. The story keeps you engaged all the way through. A great balance of wonder and humor that will keep you laughing all the way through. If you get a chance read this one. It is an oldie but a goodie.

  • The Andalite’s Gift

    Book 1 of Megamorphs from the Animorphs series. This was interesting as all the characters got their own chapter. Aside from that it is all the action you have come to enjoy. It was interesting to read this novel as it actually takes place mid series of Animorphs and the author kept the tension high…
