Rayna’s Sacrifice is an excellent third novel in the Katori Chronicles series by A.D. Lombardo. The Half-Light hooked me. Mariana’s Secret felt like a whirlwind. Now, Rayna’s Sacrifice brings them both together in a completely different way.
Susan Handley’s newest crime procedural series, Paid in Blood, provides everything a crime reader wants. You have a flawed main character with plenty of red herrings to keep the story moving along at a good pace.
The second Detective Kate Young novel, A Cut For A Cut, takes readers on a painful journey. Once again, Carol Wyer brings a full range of emotions to her writing. The unspeakable acts taking place in these sleepy little villages break your heart.
Kayla Joy tells a stunning story in her newest novel, Hooverville. After reading, I have a new desire to study The Great Depression further. Joy’s research shows how dedicated she is to the story. Rarely is history the star of the show, but you find it here.
Lizzie Lane offers readers a glance of Bristol during WWII in her new novel, Dark Days for the Tobacco Girls. This book is the second volume in the Tobacco Girls series. It also works well as a standalone. I never felt lost because the author incorporates enough events from the first book.
From My Balcony to Yours is another superb set of essays from Nino Gugunishvili. Nino’s feelings about the early months of the Coronavirus pandemic are universal in each of us. Her poignant insight looks right into your soul and commiserates with our fears.
Wyrd Gods is a real treat delivered by Susana Imaginário. This story combines an interesting mix of mythologies with fantasy. It is mythology told in a way I’ve never read before. In what universe will Olympian and Norse gods come together to fight a common enemy?
