Endymion by Dan Simmons is the third book in the Hyperion Cantos series. To say that I am disappointed in this book is a huge understatement. In fact, it saddens me to say that I have to put this book in my “did not finish” category as I absolutely loved the first two books of…

Promise of Blood by Brian McClellan is the first book in his Powder Mage trilogy series.

The Shadows of Grace by David Dalglish is the fourth book in the Half-Orcs series. I’m glad to see that the author got back on track with this book. With Death of Promises, the book was just way to action oriented for my liking. It was just battle after battle with fireballs and lightning strikes…

If you didn’t like his previous books, it’s perfectly okay. You…
