Novella Review: ReDawn: Skyward Flight: Novella #2 by Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson

First, before the review, I do have to make an apology. Somehow, I glossed over the fact that these novellas were written by Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson. This would include the previous novella I reviewed. I am sorry but to make it clear, it would be both Sanderson and Patterson who’ve worked on these, … Continue reading Novella Review: ReDawn: Skyward Flight: Novella #2 by Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson

Book Review: Kane Chronicles #1 – The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan

Initially I was planning to cover this series after finishing the Harley Merlin series, but after the mysterious disappearance from Kindle and it not being stocked in my local bookstore, I bumped this up the line. I’ve always been a fan of mythology and stories based around the idea of ancient gods and myths. But … Continue reading Book Review: Kane Chronicles #1 – The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan
