The illegal dragon egg trade and the brutal risks, kidnappings, violence, and deadly consequences involved gave the story a sense of danger that rarely … Continue reading Book Review: Realm of Thieves by Karina Halle

Book Review: The Wind Weaver by Julie Johnson

My Thoughts on The Wind Weaver: The Wind Weaver swept me away (pun intended) with its lush world-building, elemental magic, and slow-building enemies-to-lovers romance. From the first intense scene when Rhya, a halfling, is bound and awaiting execution simply for existing, the fear, tension, and unrest set the tone for the rest of the book. … Continue reading Book Review: The Wind Weaver by Julie Johnson
