Who published this? So many errors!Is Crash a spelling mistake of Crasii because I saw zero distinction between the two words throughout the series. I tried replacing the words with human and humans...nope, it doesn't work every time. She uses them interchangeably. So many other mistakes it's unb...
Brilliant finish! I love how she treated the transition from Amyrantha to earth and how earth’s faith/future/history (however you want to state it) is tied to the Tide Lords’ influences and actions (e.g. the destruction of the dinosaurs). This was a very humorous, imaginative and fitting end to...
In a follow-up that’s just as good as her series opener, Jennifer Fallon continues the Second Sons Trilogy. Eye of the Labyrinth picks up two years after the close of Lion of Senet, and further complicates a story full of political machinations and intrigue. If that’s the sort of fantasy you like...
I think that having completed this book I am going to have to say that Jennifer Fallon is now one of my top authors. This tale was... wow. It was full of action, intrigue, skin-tickling magic, fear-inducing horrors, and much more - in fact, everything that would expect from the top of the line fa...
The small country of Medalon lies between the vast nation of Karien in the north and the nations of Fardohnya and Hythria in the south. For centuries the Medalonians co-existed peacefully with the Harshini, a magical race that abhors killing. But now they are gone and in their place the Sisters o...
This is one of those books that's fun to read, but has little else going for it. If you're a hardcore fantasy fan looking to kill some time, you could do worse, but in general I would not recommend.Lion of Senet is an unusual epic fantasy in that not only is it decidedly not a Tolkien knock-off--...
ORIGINALLY POSTED AT Fantasy Literature.Up till now I've enjoyed Jennifer Fallon's Demon Child trilogy; her writing is competent (not beautiful, but competent), her characters intriguing, and the story was interesting enough. But I always had this feeling ... the same feeling I get when I watch m...
Marla Wolfblade of Hythria is determined to restore her family's great name, but conspirators surround her: the Sorcerers' Collective, the Patriots -- even members of her own family. She must make sure her son Damin lives to be old enough to restore the Wolfblade name to its former glory.Elezaar ...
When a Stargate malfunction throws Lieutenant Colonel Cameron Mitchell, Dr. Daniel Jackson, Lt. Colonel Sam Carter, and Teal'c back in time, they only have minutes to live. But their rescue, by an unlikely duo - Major General Jack O'Neill and Vala Mal Doran - is only the beginning of their probl...
She’d done it twice now, the djinni had spluttered furiously, when he finally caught up with Marcroy in Tír Na nÓg, waking him as he slept in his tree house. Marcroy emerged, wrapping a spider-silk cloak around his shoulder to find the djinni standing on the bough, hands on his hips, turning dark...
As he rode through the crowded streets of the Beggars’ Quarter he surveyed his own little kingdom and smiled, thinking he probably ruled as much of Krakandar as Mahkas Damaran. He ruled the night, at least. Since returning home eight years ago, with his reputation as a thief in Greenharbour prece...
Since overhearing the High Priestess’s plans for her, she was almost giddy with the prospect of the glittering future now open to her. They want to bind Kirshovto them, she thought, and they need me to do it. For the first time in her life, Marqel found herself grateful to Kalleen and Lanatyne.Th...
‘I think I could do a PhD on this kid.’‘Is he schizophrenic?’‘Hard to say after only one interview. I’m guessing not. As a rule, schizophrenia is characterised by relatively stable, albeit paranoid, delusions, which our boy has in spades. But the delusions are usually accompanied by hallucination...
There was no point going near her early in the evening. As Stellan’s hostess, either she was too busy organising the legion of Crasii slaves on duty for the occasion or she was occupied greeting their guests with her husband, Mathu, and the King and the Queen of Glaeba. Either way, she had no tim...
There was no special trick to it. Any Crasii who came with few feet of a suzerain knew it instantly. Her species was created for it, specifically designed to recognise and serve their masters — every canine, every feline, even those wretched, unsociable amphibians. Of course, Tiji was a Scard, wh...
He had thought this through so carefully. He had covered every eventuality—so he thought. But this … to be thwarted by something so simple … He couldn't believe it. Couldn't believe everything was lost. The events he had set in motion would all be for nothing if he wasn't standing beside Marqel o...
Darragh pondered that thought as he watched Rónán approach the cradle rocking gently in the center of the room that was somehow different from before. The room was no longer warm or candlelit. It was dark and the walls were glistening in the moonlight seeping through a sliver in the closed curtai...
“Damin?” Rorin blinked a few times, and looked around the room blankly. He was back in his own room in Cabradell Palace, daylight streaming through the windows. At first glance, the bedroom seemed to be full of people, although when he managed to focus his eyes a little better he realised it was ...
The shutters were broken, the contents ransacked, and the whole place reeked of the eye-watering stench of wood alcohol. It took nearly three days to restore it to some semblance of order. Tiji was glad of something to do, something to keep her occupied and her mind off what was happening back at...
Seeing is not the same as witnessing. Killing is not the same as murder. Kiam Miar ran through the mantra in his mind as the bare-chested stevedores secured the heavy lines of the trading ship to the Calavandra wharf, their dark skins glistening in the heat of the midday sun. The men hauled on th...
