In a little over twenty days the final book of The Chorus of Dragons series, The Discord of Gods by Jenn Lyons will release. Although the cast of No Page Unturned, a book podcast, received advance reader copies of the book from Tor Books we decided to make our predictions for how the series will …
As someone who has read a hefty amount of detective novels, I knew precisely what Richard Swan was doing in The Justice of Kings, the first book in his The Empire of the Wolf trilogy. It’s written like a classic Sherlock Holmes or Hercule Poirot in a fantasy setting, with elements of both making up …
