BOOK SERIES: The Tide Lords by Jennifer Fallon

Hi everyone, welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today, I’m going to review the series Tide Lords by Jennifer Fallon. This series consists of four books: The Immortal Prince, The Gods of Amyrantha, The Palace of Impossible Dreams and The Chaos Crystal, and I will be reviewing all four of these books here. Spoiler Alert. The Immortal Prince is a book that I added to my TBR pile after it was suggested and recommended in a fantasy series recommendations video as the first book of a fantasy series worth checking out. And when I started reading it (I’m talking about…

BOOK CLUB BOOK REVIEW: Uprooted by Naomi Novik

Our dragon doesn’t eat the girls he takes, no matter what stories they tell outside our valley. We hear them sometimes, from travelers passing through. Of course that’s not true: he may be a wizard and immortal, but he’s still a man. He protects us from the Wood. He doesn’t devour them really; it only feels that way. He takes a girl to his tower, and ten years later he lets her go, but by then she’s someone different. Hey everyone. Today I’m reviewing Uprooted by Naomi Novik. This review has spoilers. Uprooted by Naomi Novik is a fantasy YA…

BOOK REVIEW: When Darkness Falls by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory

Welcome everyone. Today I’ll be reviewing When Darkness Falls by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory, the third installment and the conclusion of The Obsidian Mountain Trilogy. SPOILER ALERT. This last book begins where To Light A Candle ended, with our heroes casting the most powerful spell they’ve all participated in—even Cilaren, who gets sick whenever he is near any sort of Wild Magic, is there—to learn why the Endarkened have not engaged them in open battle yet, as they did before in the First and Great Wars. At this point, they’ve only had skirmishes and combats with lesser creatures of…

BOOK REVIEW: To Light A Candle by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory

Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today we are reviewing To Light A Candle by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory, the second installment of The Obsidian Mountain Trilogy.

I’m going to start this review though by saying that I started reading this book a month or…

BOOK REVIEW: The Outstretched Shadow by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory

Hi everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today, I’m going to review The Outstretched Shadow by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory. Let me preface this review by saying that the Obsidian Mountain Trilogy is a re-read for me. I first read it in the early 2000s, and really liked it. And this time around, the experience was just as enjoyable. So enjoyable that I recommended the first book to my sister. She did not like it. Now, let me also say that my sister and I have completely different tastes in books, which is not a bad thing, but…
