A Lot of Tension

Forgotten in Death by J.D. Robb
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This Time it is mostly Eve who solves on one but two deaths. Each has its own unique flavor and requires time in both the past and the present. I really nice addition to the series. Plenty of tension as the plot develops and added information is added. Can stand alone but great if you started at book one.

Second Book Failure

The Devil You Know by Kit Rocha
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This falls into what I call the second book chasm. It fills a need to get everyone on the same page. It sets up the next book. It gets two characters together. It just does not make that good a read. I kept waiting for the plot to reveal itself as I read the first half. The second half did get two characters together. There was danger and tension with the romance. It just took getting to the ending to set up the next book. I loved book one. Was somewhat interested in book two and have hopes that book three is a have trouble putting it down like book one. Not a stand alone.

More to Come

The Russian Cage by Charlaine Harris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lizbeth Rose is back and off on another adventure. Eli is in trouble and she travels to the Holy Russian Empire to save him. Along the way new and old characters play a part in the story line. There is tension but not as much as I expected. I enjoyed seeing Eli's family and watching Lizabeth interact with both high and low members of the government. All is well that ends well so that is true for this part of the story. More to come so we will see what happens next.

Faithless in Death

Faithless in Death by J.D. Robb
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Eve is into something much bigger than she expected. When a woman is killed she has a suspect but that leads to a cult. Watch for echoes from the past, this time Eve's. Interesting take on cults and what they do. Nice addition to the series.

#50 in Series

Golden in Death by J.D. Robb
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Eve has a new case, in fact two new cases. They appear to be from the same person but why these two who do not have a connection. Great new case. Roarke is more a side character in this one. Eve and team do most of the work with just a little help from the civilivan consultant. One of the better books in the series.

A Longer Fall by Charlaine Harris
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Gunnie Rose has taken a job that is not what it seems and when it all goes bad Eli returns to be a part of the solution. This is great world building and the world is filled with interesting characters. As the characters drive the plot Gunnie faces more trouble and danger. I love how she and Eli work together. Of course as all seems to be settled the last actions leave a lot open ended. Great action and tension.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 375 - Native Tongue by Suzette Haden Elgin, Vox by Christina Dalcher

Native Tongue by Suzette Haden Elgin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a book that has stuck with me for years. In this world women are property, denied civil rights and banned from public life. Written by Suzette Haden Elgin a PHD in linguistics it highlight the importance and power of language. It is one I recommend for anyone who read Vox (the next book in this post) and The Handmaidens Tale. The characters are  very well drawn, the world building is clear and concise and the language fascinating. The book is no longer in print but it is well worth your time to find a copy.


Vox by Christina Dalcher
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was our Science Fiction Book Club selection for March. Vox like Native Tongue is written by a linguistic and highlights the importance of language. In this book women are again denied rights and are stripped of free use of language. They can use only 100 words a day. While the story was a little uneven it still highlights how easily the world can go backwards and groups can have their rights stripped away. As a group we agreed that this was a great read for establishing discussion. In fact it lead to a very long and varied meeting where thing happening today were brought out and compared to events in the book. In Vox language

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 363 - Severed by Shona Husk, Jake's Redemption by Jamie Schulz

Severed by Shona Husk
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Severed was a hard book to put in a category. It is science fiction that flows over into erotica, There is a lot of sex and much of it male/male. Then it goes to a triad for two males and one female. Both are the norm for this world that Shona Husk has built. I loved the three main characters. All are strong but have very human weaknesses. The world building is unique as women fly and men walk. Halle Ish, Avin Lent, and Jarro Coblic end up together while facing danger. Their reactions to each other drive the story. This is the start of a new series and I look forward to seeing what happens next in the very fascinating world.

I received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review.


Jake's Redemption: The Angel Eyes Series Prequel by Jamie Schulz
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Jake's Redemption turns the tables on male and female relationships. Jake is a slave as are most of the men in this world. Women have a new power and the fate of men was changed during a war mentioned in the book. Jake's status is not changed in the story. He is always a slave but what does change is how he is treated when he leaves a place where he is kept barely alive to one where he is treated with respect. I liked the concept and the world building. I did think the book would have been better if it had been edited down and the story presented in a more concise manner. I found it to drag between the action and wanted the story to speed up. That said I am looking forward to the next book that continues the story started here.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 303 - The Bartered Brides by Mercedes Lackey, Dragon's Code by Gigi McCaffrey

The Bartered Brides by Mercedes Lackey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is another series that plays on the Sherlock Homes character. Here he is missing and psychic Nan Killian, medium Sarah Lyon-White, and Elemental Masters John and Mary Watson have to solve a new mystery. At first there are just the headless bodies and no clue as to where they came from or why they are missing their heads. This is the first book of the series I have read but at no time did I feel lost. Lackey is a master at giving clues to the backstory in small easy to find snippets usually in dialog. I loved the strong women and how one because what she felt she had always should have been. Great story with all the tension expected and with some interesting twists and turns. Of course Sherlock did make two small solo appearances.

Dragon's Code: Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern by Gigi McCaffrey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It has been a long time since I have visited the world of Pern and it was great being back. I liked how the mix of old and new drove the story. Piemur, a journeyman harper, is as lost as the Oldtimers. They are not adjusting to how Pern changed and Piemur is looking for a direction for his life after his voice broke and he can no longer sing. The danger and adventure keep the story moving as both finally find a direction and place in their life. Nice addition to a old and familiar world.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 276 - Duchess of Terra by Glynn Stewart, 1636: The Vatican Sanction by Eric Flint

Duchess of Terra by Glynn Stewart
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a fun series to read. It has great characters, both human and alien, interesting science and a plot that started in book one and continues in book two. The backstory continues to develop and the world building supports the story and is presented as part of the plot. There is danger developing as the book starts and it is taken care of before the book ends. That does not mean there is nothing left for another book. This is a developing story just as the world building continues to develop. There is more to come.


1636: The Vatican Sanction by Eric Flint
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This picks up where a previous book left off. Pope Urban is trying to get the different Christian religions together to talk and perhaps stop fighting. There are those who support and those who oppose. That makes the undertaking dangerous. There are several main characters from the first book and many from history. This is a complete story and the reader is the same for all the Ring of Fire books. He does a very good job of the different voices helpings keep the story moving.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 260 - Black Chamber by S.M. Stirling, An Affair with a Spare by Shana Galen

Black Chamber by S.M. Stirling
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This started with a bang as Teddy Roosevelt became president a second time as WWI started but then bogged down as the story progressed. The Black Chamber is the spy agency and the main character is Luz O'Malley Aróstegui. She is ruthless and on a mission to discover what the German's have developed in secret. The secret is indeed deadly but in setting the scene and telling the back story the tension left the story in the middle but returned in the end. It will be interesting to see where Stirling will go with this series. This history is set up with the US in grave trouble and the German's close to winning. That makes the Black Chamber more important than ever.

An Affair with a Spare by Shana Galen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This has a nice twist. This survivor spent his time seducing secrets from the local women while his squad mates fought. Rafe is a great character. He is so charming that no one takes him seriously. Enter Collette Fortie, a French woman on a quest. Everything changes as Rafe first sees her as a job and then gets drawn into more danger than he ever faced during the war. This has great characters an interesting plot, a unexpected romance and a surprise ending. Another survivor finds his HEA but there are still more who need their story told.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 93 - Behind the Throne by K.B. Wagers, The Alexander Inheritance by Eric Flint, Gorg Huff, Paula Goddlett

Behind the Throne by K.B. Wagers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is great space opera. Hailimi Bristol is anything but the heir to the throne but when her sisters are killed she is forced to come back and be just that. Notice something different. It seems that the women rule the planet and gender roles are reversed. Not everyone is happy to see Hailimi back and her life is in constant danger. She has a great group of characters who are helping her stay alive. A fun and hard to put down story. I really liked this book and am off to get book two, After the Crown, which is already out.

The Alexander Inheritance by Eric Flint
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a new world created by those aliens who's art keep moving parts of earth between different time periods. This time it is a cruise ship that goes from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean. But they don't just change locations they change time periods and this time it is just after the death of Alexander the Great. I did find this one a little harder to swallow. This was a ship with 5000 people on board and having been on a cruise ship for 4 months at a time the lack of information about most of those was not very realistic. It was however fun. There are the historical characters and the fictional ones all interacting as they try to get a different result from the one that is written in the cruise ships history. I do recommend it just take it with a grain of salt. I found it the least believable book of the series.

Etched in Bone by Anne Bishop

While this is a short and sweet review The Others are one of my favorite series and deserves it's own review page.  The book will not be out until March of 2017.  No spoilers here.  Read and see if you will be like me when the book comes out.  You just have a little over a Month to wait.



Etched in Bone by Anne Bishop
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this series and when I got the email from Netgalley saying I was approved I wanted to drop everything and start reading. I did make myself finish the book I was reading and then picked up Etched in Bone. I started with mixed feelings. I read that this was a five book series and this was the last book. So as I read I was trying to make the book last while refusing to put the book down. Once again Anne Bishop has put together a great story. The Story is set primarily in the Courtyard at Lakeside so the side characters at other locations do not make much of an appearance in this book. All of the Lakeside and Courtyard characters carry the story. The exploding fluff balls (I loved this name) are still around and continuing to change how the others feel about some humans. The Lakeside police play a important part in the story line and some of the Others are still around causing trouble. The ending was what a lot of us have been waiting for and if this is indeed the last story set in this marvelous world it is very satisfying. However, I hope that Bishop will not abandon this world. There are still a lot of stories left in The Others world.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 63 - The House of Daniel by Harry Turtledove, Colton Christmas Protector by Beth Cornelian, Those Texas Nights by Delores Fosses

The House of Daniel by Harry Turtledove
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really liked this book. I listened to it on CD and will admit that if I had been reading it would probably have been a DNF. This is about baseball which I like and an alternate history which was interesting. Set in the 1930's after the big bubble has bust life is very hard and the main character Jack Spivey is having it harder than most. When he get into trouble with the boss in Enid, OK he lucks out and gets a place on the House of Daniel traveling baseball team. The world is viewed from Jack's eyes and according to Jack the rules for baseball are like the rules for life. Jack is a very likable character. In fact the entire book is filled with likable characters. This is alternate history where there are all of the paranormal creatures like vampires and zombies. These are not the main focus just around in the background. At one point I thought Turtledove had included everything except dragons. Then near the end there is a dragon in the San Diego Zoo. Recommended especially for base ball fans.


Colton Christmas Protector by Beth Cornelison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review.Finally a answer to a the mystery of what happened to Eldridge. That answer is wrapped around another mystery. Who killed Andrew, Reid's police partner, and why did was Reid Colton blamed. Does the fact that someone is trying to kill both Reid and Pen, Andrew'a widow, have a tie in to Andrew's death. Reid and Pen are nice characters and throwing a terrible two into the mix lightened up the story line. A nice finish to the story line. I did think that Eldridge's mysterious disappearance could have been solved sooner but it did give all the character's a chance for an HEA. Will stand alone but best if the series is read in order.


Those Texas Nights by Delores Fossen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review. I have been a fan of Delores Fossen for quite awhile. I expected Those Texas Nights to be very similar to her other books but boy was I fooled and in a very nice way. From the start when Sophie Granger is running in her wedding grown to the end of the book it was filled with laugh out loud moments. Sophie and Clay are really great characters who do not immediately fall into each others arms. The story is spread over months making the attraction more believable. There are several interesting and laughable characters but the best are the feral chickens. There is danger and tension in the story while allowing the humorous moments to blend into the plot. This is book one in a new series and I hope the humor continues into the next books.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews #39, Fatal Identity by Marie Force, Starboard by Dave Bara, 1636: The Chronicles of Dr. Gribbleflotz by Kerryn Offord and Rick Boatright

Fatal Identity by Marie Force
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been binge reading the Fatal series for the last week. Fatal Identity is the latest one in the series. Sometimes a series does not hold up over multiple books. Fatal Identity is one that does. A lot has happened to Sam and Nick in the year covered by the series. Sam is still a homicide detective but Nick is now the Vice-President. Once again Sam has a very high profile case even though she is on a four day suspension. Others in the large cast are dealing with other problems. A lot of tension, a really unusual plot and a great addition to the story.


Starbound by Dave Bara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Starboard is a typical middle book in a trilogy. There are multiple problems that Peter has to face. First is a unexpected attack with the loss of many of the people under Peter's command. Then he has to face changes in his family. Finally he is captured and almost executed for losing the Impulse (see book one). Each of those events are a part of the set up for the next book in the series. The Lightship Chronicles continues to be an exciting and tension filled space opera series.


1636: The Chronicles of Dr. Gribbleflotz by Kerryn Offord and Rick Boatright
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a side story in the Ring of Fire series. The main character is Phillip Theophrastus Gribbleflotz, the world's greatest alchemist. He has a history before he meets some of the up-timers who came back when Grantsville was transported to the 1630's. He has tried very hard to make a name for himself but his first big success is making baking soda and baking powder so the women of Grantsville can continue to have biscuits. From there we follow him as he becomes a household name with other products. It is a fun story for anyone to read and a must read for fans of the series. Some of the main characters have cameo roles in the story but most of the characters are new or side characters from other stories.

1635: A Parcel of Rogues by Eric Flint and Andrew Dennis

Alternate History

From Goodreads:

Book #20 in the multiple New York Times best-selling Ring of Fire series. When the diplomatic embassy from the United States of Europe was freed from the Tower of London during the Baltic War, most of its members returned to the continent. But some remained behind in Britain, including notorious enemy to the crown Oliver Cromwell. Now,  the hunt for Cromwell is on, with King Charles himself demanding Cromwell’s head.

When the diplomatic embassy from the United States of Europe was freed from the Tower of London during the Baltic War, most of its members returned to the continent. But some remained behind in Britain: Oliver Cromwell and a few companions, including the sharpshooter Julie Sims, her Scot husband Alex Mackay, and Cromwell’s Irish-American self-appointed watchdog Darryl McCarthy.

Soon, the hunt is on for the most notorious rebel in English history, with King Charles himself demanding Cromwell’s head. The new chief minister Richard Boyle, Earl of Cork, brings over from Ireland a notorious crew of cutthroats led by the man called Finnegan to track down and capture the escapees from the Tower.

The hunt passes through England and into Scotland, where the conflict between Cromwell and his companions and their would-be captors becomes embroiled in Scotland’s politics, which are every bit as savage and ruthless as Finnegan and his men. To make things still more conflicted and confused, the time Darryl McCarthy spends fighting alongside Cromwell forces him against his will to admire and respect—and even like—the man, despite Cromwell’s demonic reputation among all self-respecting Irish nationalist families like Darryl’s own.

It’s a Gordian knot anywhere you look—until Julie Sims brings out her rifle. Now it’s the turn of Scot partisans and English lords and Irish toughs to learn the lesson already learned on the continent:

A safe distance isn’t what you think it is. Not after the American angel of death spreads her wings.

A Parcel of Rogues is a must read for fans of the Ring of Fire series.  In the time line this fills in an event that happened early in the series.  Mike Stern is still running the United States of Europe and the escape from the Tower of London just happened.  Alex and Julie, two of the main characters as the series began stayed in England after the escape and we are just now finding out what happened to them and to Oliver Cromwell.

I found the first part of the book a little slow.  Since I am reviewing an ARC of A Parcel of Rogues some of the things that slowed the book down may be edited out.  There is a lot about Finnegan, the man tracking them down, that I could have skipped.  The same goes for all of the explanations about history and how it is changed.  That  could be shorten.  Of course that is me and some readers may think it needs the long explanations.

The last part of the book was just the opposite.  There was plenty of action, danger and tension.  Julie, Alex, Darryl McCarthy and Cromwell all play a part in keeping everyone safe.  A nice ending to the question of what happened in England and Scotland after the escape.

A Parcel of Rogues is not the best book in the series but it is an important side story and may lead to future books set in England.

Baen published A Parcel of Rogues by Eric Flint and Andrew Dennis.  The book is due out in 2016.

The Daedalus Incident (Daedalus Incident #1) by Michael J. Martinez

Science Fiction

From Goodreads:

Mars is supposed to be dead.…

Bizarre quakes are rumbling over the long-dormant tectonic plates of the planet, disrupting its trillion-dollar mining operations and driving scientists past the edges of theory and reason. However, when rocks shake off their ancient dust and begin to roll—seemingly of their own volition—carving canals as they converge to form a towering structure amid the ruddy terrain, Lt. Jain and her JSC team realize that their routine geological survey of a Martian cave system is anything but. The only clues they have stem from the emissions of a mysterious blue radiation, and a 300-year-old journal that is writing itself.

Lt. Thomas Weatherby of His Majesty’s Royal Navy is an honest 18th-century man of modest beginnings, doing his part for King and Country aboard the HMS Daedalus, a frigate sailing the high seas between continents…and the immense Void between the Known Worlds.

With the aid of his fierce captain, a drug-addled alchemist, and a servant girl witha remarkable past, Weatherby must track a great and powerful mystic, who has embarked upon a sinister quest to upset the balance of the planets—the consequences of which may reach far beyond the Solar System, threatening the very fabric of space itself.

Two Earths – Two Different Times.  That is the premise of The Daedalus Incident.

I loved the world building.  While one Earth is set in 2132 with science that matches ours the other is set in 1779 and the science is nothing like ours.  In fact it allows sailing ships to travel in space used alchemy to keep gravity and air as they sail the Void. The first two chapters introduce both worlds and as the story progresses those worlds begin to interact and not in a good way.

The two main characters for each world have to match their time.  They have one thing in common.  Both are members of the British Royal Navy.  Lt. Jain from 2132 is female and a pilot.  Lt. Weatherby has the attitudes from 1779 and does not think females are the equal of males.  It is fun when they finally meet.

While there are similar plots around what makes this book unique is the setting.  Lt. Jain is faced with events that make no sense.  The danger Lt. Weatherby faces is revealed early in the book.  Both are related.  It takes a long journey for Jain to realize what is going on.  Weatherby also faces a long journey to stop the danger to both worlds.  It does take characters from both worlds working together in the end.

Martinez dishes out clues in very small doses.  There was just enough in each chapter to keep the story going.  I found that once I started reading I did not want to stop.   There is a solution at the end but that solution leaves a big problem for the next book in the series, The Enceladus Crisis.  Book three, The Venusian Gambit will be released in May this year.  There is also a novella, The Gravity Affair.

This is a great book for Science Fiction lovers but will also satisfy Alternate History fans.

Mantle of Malice (The Tudor Enigma #3) by April Taylor

Alternate History

From Goodreads:

England’s infant heir has been kidnapped, and there’s only one man who can find him.

Luke Ballard has dedicated his talents—and his life—to protecting the throne. As Henry IX’s Privy Inquirer and Dominus Elemancer, his loyalty is no longer in question. But when Queen Madeline’s coronation is interrupted with the news that Arthur, the baby Prince of Wales, has been abducted, Luke is given an ultimatum: retrieve the royal heir and prevent future threats to the royal family or lose his head.

That the young prince has been taken by dark forces is clear. The evil sorcerers of Custodes Tenebris will not rest until they hold power in England with Catholic Mary as a puppet Queen. Luke has bested them before, but he’s never needed to defeat evil while falling in love—Arthur’s nursemaid, the beautiful Blanche Oliver, has won him over with her seductive charms.

As Luke’s investigation leads into the dark recesses of his own family’s past, Blanche’s hold on him deepens. With the fate of the Tudors hanging in the balance, Luke will need to draw upon untested strength and sort truth from feminine fiction…for the enemy’s reach is long and time is running out.

Book three of The Tudor Enigma

Once again Luke is called on to solve a mystery.  The price if he does not could be his head.  There is a new plot and new characters who want to get rid of Henry the IX and his Mother Ann.  What is different this time is that it is obvious that Luke is under some kind of spell.  Everyone around him sees it but he refuses to listen.  It takes time, travel and many hurt feelings before he comes to his senses and solves the mystery.

Look for new directions for some of the side characters.  There is also additional world building for this history where Ann does not lose her head and gives Henry XIII a son. 

I am enjoying this series.  I like that it features someone outside the court as the main character and adds magic to the mix.  Mantle of Malice can be read as a stand alone but like any series is better if you have read the first two books.

Taste of Treason (The Tudor Enigma #2) by April Taylor

Alternate History

From Goodreads:

Book two of The Tudor Enigma

Blood, frogs and a deadly threat to the firstborn…

Luke Ballard, Dominus Elemancer and Privy Inquirer into Divers Mischiefs and Grievances, has grown his magical powers since his last encounter with the Sunderers, dark sorcerers who will stop at nothing—including partnering with England's mortal enemies—to destroy the throne. But is he skilled enough to protect his own and prevent tragedy from reaching the royal family?

The continuation of Tudor rule and the future of England's true religion rest with King Henry IX's new bride, Queen Madeline of Scotland. Pregnant with a possible heir, she's nearly killed—twice—in incidents that bizarrely mimic the Plagues of Egypt. And she is not alone. All of Hampton Court, it seems, has been surrounded by a dark cloud of otherworldly danger.

Fearful for his wife and unborn child, King Henry can only turn to one man.

I loved the mix of alternate history and magic in the first book of The Tudor Enigma.  That continues in book two.  Once again Luke must face a terrible threat from the dark sorcerers and once again a large cast of characters help defeat the danger.  The world building continues, as does the character development.  While Luke wins over evil again there are still danger left in the picture so I think we will see more of this Tudor world and its great cast of characters.

The Time Roads by Beth Bernobich

Alternate History

What Goodreads says:

Éire is one of the most powerful empires in the world. The Anglian Dependencies are a dusty backwater filled with resentful colonial subjects, Europe is a disjointed mess, and many look to Éire for stability and peace. In a series of braided stories, Beth Bernobich has created a tale about the brilliant Éireann scientists who have already bent the laws of nature for Man's benefit. And who now are striving to conquer the nature of time.

The Time Roads is a difficult book to categorize.  I settled on Alternate History as the setting is around the 1900’s and some things are familiar.   Other things are not at all familiar.  Eire is the ruling island in this time line and science has gone in a different direction adding a touch of steampunk.

I am glad I read The Time Roads but I found it to be weak in several areas.  The story follows several characters on a journey that takes many, many years. I found the world building a little lacking and the switch from following one characters to another confusing.  That confusion was also there as the time line progressed.  I don’t want to add a spoiler so just let me say if you get too confused just keep reading it will all come together by the end of the book.

As the blurb says this is a group of braided stories that interact but still leave a lot unsaid.  The discovery of the time roads is part of each.  If you like books with an unusual concept and a different take on history and time travel this is the book for you.  I found I liked it much better after I finished and had time for everything to settle into place.
