The Diamond Throne by David Eddings is the first of three in his Elenium series. Published in the 90s, I’ve read that this series has been heralded as a classic by many and was the author’s claim to fame. I was looking for my next political fantasy book/series when I stumbled upon this series in…

Talion: Revenant by Michale A. Stackpole is a standalone fantasy book. There will always be times when a person can take so much of something before being forced to take a break. After having continuously read fantasy books in a series, I decided it was time again to take a no-commitment approach. I didn’t want…

Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley is the Arthurian legend retold in its full glory but this time around, it’s told through the eyes of the women behind the story. I’m sure a lot of people are familiar with the legend of King Arthur and The Knights of the Round Table. Characters such as…

Weavers of War by David B. Coe is the fifth and final book in the Winds of the Forelands series. It’s been a long journey but finally, I made it to the end. As expected, this book is the most action oriented out of the bunch and I’m even going to say that it has…

Shapers of Darkness by David B. Coe is the fourth book in the Winds of the Forelands series. After being disappointed with Bonds of Vengeance, I am happy to say that Shapers of Darkness provided the redemption I was hoping for. This was the book I was actually expecting in book three. Everything from the…

Bonds of Vengeance by David B. Coe is the third book in the Winds of Forelands series.I’ll be upfront with everyone right now. I’m disappointed. I expected things to ramp up now that we’re three books in but instead, I got pretty much the same ‘ol same from the previous two books. Mind you, while…

Seeds of Betrayal by David B. Coe is book two in the Winds of the Forelands series. Truth be told, there aren’t much book series where I immediately start the second book right after having read the first. There’s obviously exceptions but in most cases, I’d take a break, read or do something else for…

Rules of Ascension by David Coe is the first book in his Winds of Forlands series. This is one of the few political fantasy series I’ve tried and it absolutely rocks! I thought this author wasn’t well known, which would have sadden me even more since he can clearly write but to my surprise, he’s…

Daughter of the Empire by Raymond Feist and Janny Wursts is the first book in The Empire Trilogy. If you found yourself entranced after having read The Game of Throne books, then you’ll most likely have also fallen into what I call the “political intrigue” spell. I wanted to start another series that so captivated…

The Wind Through the Keyhole can be considered a stand-alone novel/story in the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. I believe this was published after the series ended and as a person who likes to read a series chronologically, it was the next in line. I admit that I have forsaken the Dark Tower series…
