Thief of Camorr

Katharine likes to think she’s a Sky Pirate and that takes up most of her time. When she isn’t treasure hunting, she’s writing or playing video games and wishing Doctor Who and Farscape were real.

My Own Kind of Freedom: A Firefly Novel

My Own Kind of Freedom: A Firefly Novel - Steven Brust Everyone is so incredibly in-character - this really is just like an actual episode. The author is quite good at his craft, and I wish there were more to read.

Heir of Night (Wall of Night 1)

The Heir of Night - Helen Lowe I've given it a month, and now I'm giving up.Though this is not Lowe’s first work, it is her first entry in the fantasy genre. It’s a tale riding on the weight of honour and the demands that must be made when you have promised your life to a certain purpose. Undertones similar to Lord of the Rings are evident, though the naming of things leaves a little to be desired (Raptor of Darkness, darkspawn, then the stark contrast of ‘Yorindesarinen’) and the tropes are heavily in favour of regular fantasy fare.Review continued here: http://sentientonline.net/?p=3474

Ready, Set, Novel!: A Workbook

Ready, Set, Novel!: A Workbook - Lindsey Grant, Tavia Stewart-Streit, Chris Baty Another gem from the Office of Letters and Light. I need to buy another so I can keep one in perfect quality and another to write in!

Fed (Newsflesh Trilogy #1.5)

Fed (Newsflesh Trilogy #1.5) - Mira Grant Really quite interesting. Very awesome of the author to have shared this.

Countdown: A Newsflesh Novella

Countdown - Mira Grant Very short, but effective.

Glitches (Lunar Chronicles, #0.5)

Glitches (Lunar Chronicles, #0.5) - Marissa Meyer Quite good short that introduces a few extra bits of information to the Lunar Chronicles world.

The House That Sailed Away (Red Fox Funny Stories)

The House That Sailed Away (Red Fox Funny Stories) - PAT HUTCHINS I read this book as a child, and never since have I read something so completely DIFFERENT - nothing could ever match what this author has thought up.The characters are true to life - ugly, annoying, yet human. A fantastic read.

The Bear Nobody Wanted

The Bear Nobody Wanted - Janet Ahlberg, Allan Ahlberg A story from the eys of a bear who thinks he's pretty fantastic. Sadly, he is treated as this is not so. The book has a happy ending though, so don't worry.In this book we see war from the eyes of the bear, children, and olde England. A fantastic book from my childhood - the thought of this book being forgotten and the next generation not getting to read it makes me sad, this is a book that really needs to be shared.

45 & 47 Stella Street Hb (A little ark book)

45 + 47 Stella Street And Everything That Happened - Elizabeth Honey As you can see from the image, the story starts on the front cover. Everything about this book is fantastic, the characters are well defined - it's such a good story to grow up with. I probably wouldn't like reading as much as I do now, if not for this book when I was younger.

Heroes, Gods and Monsters of the Greek Myths

Heroes, Gods and Monsters of the Greek Myths - Bernard Evslin, William Hofmann A fantastic view into the lesser known characters. I adore the story of Petrelli, and I won't say any more than that.

48 Shades of Brown

48 Shades of Brown - Nick Earls Not as good as some of his other work, but still worth a read and it'll get a few laughs :)

Firefly: The Official Companion: Volume One

Firefly: The Official Companion Volume One - Joss Whedon, Abbie Bernstein The perfect edition to something we could never get enough of.

Firefly: The Official Companion: Volume Two

Firefly: The Official Companion Volume Two - Joss Whedon, Abbie Bernstein Possibly better than the first, or maybe only because my favourite episodes were in here.All I can say is, WE NEED MORE!

Vampyrrhic

Vampyrrhic - Simon Clark Quite surprising - at the start you don't see how it's going to continue at all.In short, I loved it.

The complete Peanuts vol. 4 - Dal 1957 al 1958

The complete Peanuts vol. 4 - Dal 1957 al 1958 - Charles M. Schulz Linus grows up so fast.

Shadowplay

Shadowplay - Christina Z;Ashley Wood I bought it for Ben Templesmith and in that I was right. Although Ashley Wood's art style is nice, I just didn't like the story, sadly. Ben though, as always makes up for it all.
