Review of Age of Myth (Michael J. Sullivan) / The Legends of the First Empire 1




7 stars.
Magic, war, false gods, mages, elves, dwarves, seer, politics, rebellion, slave, pursuit, revenge, outcasts..
It is worth reading, the beginning of a fantastic series.
It is worth buying it, giving it away and lending it to whoever likes fantastic literature.
Since time immemorial, humans have worshipped the gods they call Fhrey, truly a race apart:
invincible in battle, masters of magic, and seemingly immortal. But when a god falls to a human blade, the balance of power between humans and those they thought were gods changes forever.
Now only a few stand between humankind and annihilation: Raithe, reluctant to embrace his destiny as the God Killer; Suri, a young seer burdened by signs of impending doom; and Persephone, who must overcome personal tragedy to lead her people. The Age of Myth is over. The time of rebellion has begun.

Review of Inda (Sherwood Smith) / Inda Series 1
6 stars.
Bulling, politics, militar academy, friendship, intrige, kingdom, children..
Adaptation of a child to life in a military academy of a kingdom, where learning, intrigue, harassment are intermingled.
I would buy this book, but I would not give it away. He lets himself be read.
Indevan Algara-Vayir was born the second son of a powerful prince, destined to stay at home and defend his family's castle. But when war threatens, Inda is sent to the Royal Academy where he learns the art of war and finds that danger and intrigue don't only come from outside the kingdom.

Review of Clean Sweep (Ilona Andrews) / Innkeeper Chronicles 1
8 stars.
Magical inn, werewolves, vampires, alien killer, flirt, romance, deaths, neighbors, nexus between worlds, disappearance parents, cannibal guest ....
A good mix between science fiction and fantasy. Book according to my review good to read, to buy, to give and to lend. It is very worth it.
Another good book by Ilona.
On the outside, Dina Demille is the epitome of normal. She runs a quaint Victorian Bed and Breakfast
in a small Texas town, owns a Shih Tzu named Beast, and is a perfect neighbor, whose biggest problem should be what to serve her guests for breakfast. But Dina is...different: Her broom is a deadly weapon; her Inn is magic and thinks for itself. Meant to be a lodging for otherworldly visitors, the only permanent guest is a retired Galactic aristocrat who can’t leave the grounds because she’s responsible for the deaths of millions and someone might shoot her on sight. Under the circumstances, "normal" is a bit of a stretch for Dina.
And now, something with wicked claws and deepwater teeth has begun to hunt at night.. eeling responsible for her neighbors, Dina decides to get involved. Before long, she has to juggle dealing with the annoyingly attractive, ex-military, new neighbor, Sean Evans an alpha strain werewolf and the equally arresting cosmic vampire soldier, Arland, while trying to keep her inn and its guests safe. But the enemy she’s facing is unlike anything she’s ever encountered before. It’s smart, vicious, and lethal, and putting herself between this creature and her neighbors might just cost her everything.
