Heart of the Hunter ( Dragon Chalice book 1)
By Tina St.John (Lara Adrian)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶🌶🌶
Ariana of Clairmont would risk anything to save her kidnapped brother, a quest she knows is fraught with peril. Her only ally is Braedon le Chasseur, a formidable knight with a mysterious past, whose scarred face and brooding nature mask a soul filled with pain. Ariana fears this dangerous man and the secrets he strives to conceal - but Braedon's touch is pure seduction, his kiss a potent lure that tempts her into a passion she is powerless to resist.
Once known as The Hunter, now haunted by a dark legacy he struggles to deny, Braedon lives in a world of shadow and isolation - until he is thrust together with an innocent beauty in need of his protection. Embarking on a journey that will lead them to a legendary treasure, Braedon will be forced to confront old enemies and the stunning secret of his true nature - or risk losing Ariana and the only happiness he has ever known. . . .
I really enjoyed this book. It was historical romance with a bit of magic thrown in. It was spicy in a hot romantic way. I love Lara Adrian she never fails to bring us a good love story with the type of villains you hate forever. Recommended!

Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Doctor Who: The Settling in Books
Jan 12, 2018
While I didn't care for the story itself (admittedly, I knew very little of Cromwell going into this) I did enjoy the character moments that came out of this. Hex continues to grow on me, and Ace continues to be awesome, here acting more as the emotional anchor for Hex than her usual bombastic force of nature. It was somewhat surprising to hear Sophie Aldred utter the line "when I was a teenager" in reference to traveling with the Doctor, and realize just how much time has passed in universe with them together. The Seventh Doctor also gets some great moments to shine as well. For a full review, visit www.travelingthevortex.com

Slightly overhyped with massive plot gaps
I had read a great number of reviews about this eccentric book, but perhaps it was a little too quirky for my liking. There are major similarities with Chuck Palahniuk in terms of the exaggerated style of writing and general shock factor, unfortunately it did not seem to deliver. The characters were undeveloped and there seem to be a lot of loose ends at the end of the book such as what actually happened to B and C? While I can understand the moralistic nature of the story, attacking the usage of food as a means to control people, there seemed to be something missing.

Yet another tedious Animation
They really seem to be churning out tedious unfunny animations lately and I'm afraid Pets is no different. Apart from the opening scene (which was in the trailer) and a couple of odd background moments usually showing the quirky nature of pets (e.g. cat & the laser), this was awful. It's was trying so hard to be a carbon copy of a Disney film, but nowhere near as good, and the voice actors didn't really fit either. They would've been better off leaving the story and just doing a whole film similar to the opening scene showing the quirky and secret habits of pets.

Sep 14, 2017
A little bland and clinical, more for hardcore sci-fi fans
I struggled with this book, mainly for its mechanical nature and rather bland storyline. For hard-core fans of 2001: Space Odyssey, this may be more of an interest given it's the same writer, but for a sci-fi rookie, it was like reading an engineering manual as they clinically detail the climate and condition of this astral being named Rama. And not much else happens apart from them walking across this horizon. It may require reading the entire series of books to see the full picture, but as a stand-alone book, it doesn't seem to work.
