Blood contract
By Jon Ripley

Signed over two hundred years ago, the Blood Contract ensured the sanctity of the Blood lands. In return, the Blood family dedicated their lives, and their deaths to the protection of the town of Thorne.For many years, the town of Thorne was nothing more than a picturesque New England village. But in modern day, the town is enjoying a boom in real estate development. To satisfy the developers with enough land, the town has decided to break the Blood Contract.And the Bloods are not pleased.Not at all.Now, as Autumn moves ever on towards winter, the Aldermen and the people of Thorne are going to learn that there is a price for ignorance.And it's higher than they could have ever imagined.




I absolutely loved this book! Full of gruesome deaths and horror plus the fey too what more could you ask for? It was just brilliant to read. I loved his style and the characters were brilliant! Looking forward to reading more from Ron Ripley!

Kidnapped, tortured, and cut-off from everyone she loves, it won't be long before even that bright spark burns out.

Detective Lucas MacConnell is not used to losing.

A master at piecing together the clues others often miss, Lucas is backed into a corner when the Druid manages to trick him. Now he's unsure how to keep going when it feels like he's already lost.

The stakes are higher than ever before, and each moment that passes puts their enemy closer to meeting his goal.

Their lives are the only thing standing in his way.





I have loved this trilogy I’m fast becoming a fan of both these authors! We finally see this foursome get an happy ending! It was hard fought for and fantastic to read I think this is the first book Series I’ve read based around druids and gypsies and I really enjoyed it!

That night turned into two blissful weeks where it felt as though their passion would never end.Until Graham walked away without a backward glance.Now, Lena finds herself uprooting and moving a state away to confront Graham, unsure how he will react when she confesses a heartbreaking truth she's not sure he will accept.Facing him will be the most difficult thing she's ever done, and could prove to be the biggest mistake of her life. After all she's betting a whole hell of a lot on the man he used to be



I was in two minds about reading this book I just wasn’t feeling it from the synopsis. But I’m so glad I did as I really enjoyed it! The whole story and way it was written was so emotionally charged.
The characters and story were so easy to read and fall in love with!
Think I need myself a lumberjack.

I originally started to read this book on my mum's kindle years ago but never got round to progressing past the first few chapters. So when I was going solo on a day trip to London,I needed something light to read on the plane and I decided that it was the perfect time to pick it up again.

A light read is really what this is, it doesn't stretch you very much and not a lot actually happens yet it's written in such a way that it keeps you engaged and wanting to read on.

The ending however, everyone always tells of the ending right? well the ending is annoyingly open ended forcing you to question everything you just read.

I ended up bringing it to America with me as well just so I could finish it which I inevitably did. And when I finished, I guess you could say that I was satisfied, I wasn't left hungering for more or wishing it had ended pages ago so I guess that's just the sign of a good book.

The whisperer In Darkness
By H.P. Lovecraft

Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments

The Whisperer in Darkness is a 26,000-word novella by American writer H. P. Lovecraft. Written February–September 1930, it was first published in Weird Tales, August 1931. Similar to The Colour Out of Space (1927), it is a blend of horror and science fiction. Although it makes numerous references to the Cthulhu Mythos, the story is not a central part of the mythos, but reflects a shift in Lovecraft's writing at this time towards science fiction. The story also introduces the Mi-go, an extraterrestrial race of fungoid creatures.


I really got into this story! He has a way of making you actually question whether there is life out there like that! Then you finish the book and realise it was just that a story! Told by a man with such an amazing imagination! I don’t know why I waited so long to read these!

This is the last book in the series! How am I going to survive without more Kieran and Lexi and co?

Anyway, they are now at the Magical Summit. Kieran is hoping for his place as San Francisco's Demigod to be approved as well as his link to Alexis. In the meantime, every Demigod's minions are prowling the grounds of the ginormous estate looking for battles, including Lexi and co.

This was quite fun. It was clear to see that Lexi and the gang were some of the most skilled fighters in the place. We met some fun characters and some stuff comes out that I hadn't expected, which was great. And then that end bit with Jack. I really do love this group of people.

I don't have the words to express how much I enjoyed this.

And then that bit with the green eyed jinn and Daisy... I'm thinking she may get her own series where that bit will be explored.
