Five-year-old Nadia has Hobson’s choice: become a slave to malevolent Elven Mage Morvilind and have him heal her dying brother; or have her brother die and become orphaned as the only remaining member of her family.

Nadia saves her brother’s life and begins arduous training as a thief for the mage. He sends her to get magical and historic artifacts for his collection. Her failure would mean her brother dies, as well as herself.

Then comes the greatest challenge of all–stealing a magical tablet from a billionaire. What’s worse, there’s another mysterious agent prowling around as well. And he has no shadow.

On to the good stuff! If you’ve seen Poultrtgeist: Night of the Chicken Dead or Thankskilling and liked them, you’ll LOVE this. The sarcasm is there, the humor is dark and twisted, and our killer Tom Turkey wakes up every day feeling great and ready to see who he can kill in the state of Illinois with his massive flock of wild and domesticated zombie turkeys.

I loved this book. The end is a bit predictable given the fact that it’s a series, but it’s definitely the predictable you’d expect from something like this. I think this book would make a great low-budget movie like the two I mentioned earlier; and let’s be realistic, thanksgiving is a pretty much open holiday in the book and movie business.

I give this book 4 of 5 Paws and I look forward to reading the rest of this series.

I enjoyed The Big Easy novella enough that I was disappointed when it ended. But on the other hand, it didn’t seem to have the same stakes and tension the other novels in the series had. So I rated it as an Average, three-star apocalyptic fantasy.

I consider RPG novels as fantasies since they involve magic.

My rating scale:
5 stars = best of the genre, still selling after 50 years.
4 stars = above average for the genre
3 stars = average for the genre
2 stars = below average for the genre
1 star = execrable, not worth reading.

Secret Supers in Space: The further adventures of disabled teen superheroes

Andy Zack is my favorite author!

November 11, 2023

I met Andy Zack at ChambanaCon several years ago. I walked by his sales table looking for something to read in the hotel room. The title “Zombie Turkeys” caught my eye so I bought a copy. I read it and found him to be so interesting that I sought him out again and we talked about the setting of that book. He knew all the places that I knew and described them accurately. I then bought all his new books as they came out, and I am now one of his biggest fans! I hope he keeps writing because I brag about him to my friends and family, and I want to add to my Life After Life and Secret Supers collections! I’ll buy everything he ever writes!

Your August SciFi > In Enemy Hands

Get Your October SciFi and Fantasy Books – My Review #1

This is a mamoth series, of over 350 chapters released over the last two years. It’ll be published soon as multiple books.

The book blurb: The Butcher of Gadobhra

Life is rough. Jobs are non-existent. And far too many people live in poverty in the real world and can only find work online in VR worlds. And it’s getting worse. The old internet is unusable and hacked to pieces. The new system needs AI to run things, but most of them are destroyed. Now everyone is scrambling to get into the GENESIS ENGINE, as it becomes the new global market place

Everyone wants a piece of the new game. The guilds are competing to be the first to find the dungeons and kill the biggest monster. The corporations are claiming land and putting in their online market places. Ozzy and his friends just want a paycheck.

Four friends find they are locked into five year contracts as virtual serfs in a small village, and can’t go adventuring at all to gain money and buy their way to freedom. They don’t have many choices. They can work as a blacksmith, barmaid and shepherd for all those years….or they can cheat and find ways they can take advantage of the system.

When they give you a mop and not a sword, you have to find the loopholes and change the rules.

My Review

This is the first book I’ve read by the Walrus King. It’s a classic RPG (Role Playing Game) set up: a dystopian world where the poor a placated by putting the in pods where they can spend all their time in a virtual game world.

A group of friends has played previous gaes and eavesdrops on a virtual conference about a new game from ‘The Genesis Engine. It’s more realistic than ever before, inseparable from reality. So the gamers all join together as some of the first players.

The company, Acme, rooks them by making it impossible to free lance and gain points. They have to work. The company has given the crazy strength and endurance and immunity to boredom and depression so they can work sixteen hours, sleep four, and be happy.

Most weapons are not allowed. Everything is stacked against them. But our intrepid band of gamers outschemes the schemers through sheer hard work.

You get the general idea of the characters and their approach in the first few chapters. They make steady progress, but hide it from the company.

Complexities ensue, as they get better and better at dungeon diving.

Highly recommended! Click here to start reading for free online.

Don’t miss this book or the series. 355 chapters, and he’s still writing.

October 17, 2023

Fun Read. Andy’s take on Zombies is fresh, unique, and above all… entertaining. A group of zombies working for the US Government but not employed by the government get up to a lot of mischief taking out Crime Lords, more Crime Lords, and aliens. Who know that Zombies had hobbies like knitting and scrapbooking? The Korean adventure is a highlight of the story.

Bodacious Creed: a Steampunk Zombie Western

The blurb:

U.S. Marshal James Creed has known loss, starting from the untimely death of his wife and daughter in a sudden fire. His work, chasing down and arresting outlaws across the Wild West, is all he has left to live for. Then one day, in 1876, the infamous killer Corwin Blake catches Creed by surprise and guns him down.

Creed awakes after a mysterious young woman resurrects him in a basement laboratory beneath a brothel. Half alive, Creed feels torn between his need for justice and his desire to fall back into the peace of death. Creed’s instincts drive him to protect the city of Santa Cruz, California, from the outlaws it harbors while searching for Blake.

He uncovers a secret criminal organization, likely protecting Blake, determined to use resurrection technology for its own ends. The former marshal, now faster, stronger, and a more deadly shot than ever before, must work with a brothel madam, a bounty hunter, and the remaining marshals to uncover the criminal syndicate before they can misuse the machines of rebirth and create more mindless zombies. Meanwhile, he must also stop Blake, before the outlaw kills the only people he cares about.

His own death can wait.

Your October SciFi Fantasy Review

After a slow start, this novel took off and I finished well-satisfied with it.

I didn’t care much for the characters at first, they seemed somewhat underdeveloped. Perhaps more backstory or flashbacks would have helped. But as they went through adventures together, you cared more and more about each.

I especially liked the last half of the book when author Jonathan Fesmire gave the villain’s point of view. This humanized them and made them seem more realistic.

I recommend this book for lovers of historical fiction and steampunk, mixed with magic and zombies.

I posted my most review the other day on Goodreads:

New Review – Mageling

September 14, 2023

Wow! This was my first exposure to J.L. Mullins and I can’t wait to read more!

He devises a world that is inherently magical and humanity must fortify itself within cities to defend against natural magic. Into this world comes a newly graduated mage, Tala. She was sold to a mage school by her impoverished parents to pay debts, so she graduates with a boatload of debt.

Tala foregoes the normal apprenticeship to a senior mage as a mageling and hires herself out as a full mage to a guild of caravan mages. She’s super cost and money conscious. She has a great deal of power and knowledge, but she is ignorant of much of the customs and economy of mages and caravans. But she learns.

That’s her best strength–learning quickly and diligently. Her greatest weakness is taking great risks. Her magic is focused on protecting her life–she has little offensive magic. But she’s very creative in using it.

If you like strong characters and magic, this one’s for you!

New Reviews – The Arcanist

My Review

September 8, 2023

Seth Ring continues his RPG fantasy about Thorn, a Titan and his main squeeze Vellin, who’s a plant mage, among other things.

Both characters are ridiculously overpowered, but that makes it fun, as other characters continuously underestimate them. Also, I like seeing how Seth Ring dreams up new adversaries for them to fight.

They also get sidekicks, such as Alph, a the Mad Master Alchemist. He also gets a romantic interest in this book, but she loves him for his mind. You see, he kept casting intelligence potions upon himself. As he got smarter, he brewed a better potion. Rinse and repeat.

So much for the characters. The plot? They’re climbing this tower. They have more powerful characters arrayed against them. They have to beat them, and improve their abilities at the same time.

Rinse and repeat. Enjoyable, if you like this sort of thing.
