David McK (3422 KP) rated Praetorian (Eagle, #11) in Books

Jan 30, 2019

The newest entry (and book # 11) in Simon Scarrow's <i>Cato and Macro</i> series which, in a change from setting, sees the two characters back in Rome proper and getting embroiled in the politics of Rome (undercover in the Praetorian Guard) rather than in the battles with the Legions.

I found this particular novel to be a return to form after the last couple of books - while they were enjoyable, they were in danger of becoming a bit 'samey'. Further prrof that a change is as good as a rest!

Trippy and oh so fun.

I just can't get over how much I am loving this series! The story moves along really nicely just like the first book you get to know more about the characters and our oh so charming villain the art is beautiful but most of all we get to se another key which is yhe head key and this one really made me sit back and think what I would do with a head key of my own. Can't wait to start the next volume!

The is the end (or is it?!)

Here it is, what the series has been building to. This volume sees Butcher and Homelander move towards conflict, with Vought and The Boys hoping it is avoided/delayed.
Some epic twists in this story, as Homelander's plans to press superheroes' place in society start to unfold.
If you aren't humming the tenpole tudor song every time you pick this book up, there is something very wrong with you.
This should really have ended the story nicely with minimal doubt. However, there was another volume!

Natari (73 KP) rated Death's Mistress (Dorina Basarab, #2) in Books

Jul 19, 2019

Dorina Basarab is my favourite series by my favourite author. In the second installment we get to have more exciting adventures with and against vampires and fey. Dory is strong but is not invincible (especially now she is up against some formiddable opponents). This is so refreshing to read. Not a sucky chosen one who flicks het magic wand and all is ok. It's edge of your seat, sassy never give up attitude will pull you in again. Can't wait to get my fangs into the next book.
