Uncharted, because no one knows where their going..
Uncharted is a live action take on the extremely popular video-game franchise of the same name.

Featuring a bunch of top Hollywood names both past and present, the first installment focuses on the fourth installment of the games and changes a lot of the original plot making for some very interesting possible sequels.

A lot of great action scenes and sequences and some light humour (although more humour was needed) and a straight forward plot made this a very enjoyable action adventure.

The duo of Mark whalberg as Victor sully and Tom Holland as Nathan drake is a very odd but fitting piece that seems to work naturally.

Did you know?

Mark whalberg was originally set to play Nathan drake before being bumped to play Victor sully so Tom Holland could play Nathan drake.

Nathan fillion was also poised to play Nathan drake as fans wanted it, although it didn't happen, fillion did make a short film where he played uncharted's protagonist.
(it's on YouTube).

-maybe we'll see MW play Nathan drake one day.

MY MASKED SHIELD is the fourth book in the Beautiful Stalkers series, finishing with Basia, whom we've met in previous books. She's got a stalker, and not the good kind, but more the sending body parts through the post kind. Along comes Caleb, ex Green Beret, here to save the day. It's not the daytime when you need to keep an eye on him, though...

There's something here for everyone, if BDSM and somno is your cup of tea! Caleb didn't stalk Basia, as the others did their women, but I guess that's because she already had one. Instead, they both get their rocks off in a different way.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, especially the way it brought all four men together. It leaves a new series wide open, while finishing this one off nicely. It wasn't my favourite of the series, but I still definitely recommend it.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

BORN OF FIRE is the first book in the Myths and Whispers series, and we start way, waaay back, with the beginning of the Myths. Then we fast-forward to the current day and Jax, a twenty-year-old carpenter who lost his parents in a tragic accident. Or was it?

Being as this is the first book, be prepared for a lot of world-building and explanations. They are done in a way so you don't really notice them, which is excellent! Jax is completely unaware of who or what he is, so we learn as he does.

Told completely from his perspective, this story has some interesting aspects. I found the latter part of the book more interesting, but I realise that the first part is absolutely necessary.

The one question I had all the way through is what about Gertie? He played chess with her all those Saturdays but then she's never mentioned again. I wanted to know more!

A great start to a new series and definitely an author to keep a lookout for. Recommended by me.
