Eleanor Luhar (47 KP) rated 07-Ghost, Volume 02 in Books

Jun 24, 2019

This is the second installation in the 07-Ghost series. Teito-Klein is still at the Barsburg Church with the Bishops, learning about the battle between light and dark. His best friend, Mikage, was possessed by evil, his soul taken from him. Teito swears revenge, but the Bishops try to reason with him.

I don't want to include spoilers, but the little dragon that's introduced in this is the cutest thing ever. My boyfriend probably got fed up of me going on about it so much. I just found the whole idea of it coming along after Mikage's death so damn adorable.

Again, I got pretty lost at times. This volume maybe wasn't quite as confusing as the first, but it was still pretty all over the place (in my opinion). I think the art could be clearer and easier to follow - though I do love the art style. And it was easy enough to at least get the general gist of, so that's good.

I'm hoping the next volumes will become even easier to follow. I like the idea and everything though so I think 3 stars is reasonable.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Deathmaker (Dragon Blood, #2) in Books

Sep 6, 2019

I received this copy via the author in exchange for an honest review.

Im a huge fan of Lindsay Buroker so when she offered me the chance to read this, I jumped at the chance.

Its part two in her Dragon Blood series and takes place a little time after the first. This one is more like her Emperors Edge series with it being heavy on the action and light on the romance, though there is enough to make you happy. Its more subtle than that of the first, which is what I really like about the authors books.

I grew to like Tolemek/the Deathmaker early on in this, despite him being one of the bad guys, and I think Cas had the same problem. Hes unlike the rest of the pirates she ends up meeting. Tolemek doesnt like hurting women, unlike some of the others, and over time he softens towards Cas and she gets under his skin. It was all rather sweet reading.

If youre a fan of the author then you need to read this. If youve never read anything by her, why not?
