Ascension
Ascension, by S.T. Gibson A few months after the events of Evocation Rhys is drowning in his duties as High Priest. His anxiety and ambition are at war, leaving him very little time to navigate the complexities of his polyamorous relationships.

Having People Over
Having People Over: A Modern Guide to Planning, Throwing, and Attending Every Type of Party, by Chelsea Fagan There’s the meme about how everyone expected to encounter more quicksand after television and Bill Wallace made such a big deal out of it when we were kids. I honestly thought there’d be more cocktail parties, though the lack may have more to do with my circle than the times (though…

Which Witch?
Which Witch?, by Simon R. Green Diana is cast as Lady Macbeth, but this production is beset by more than the usual bad luck. She calls in Alistair, reuniting the Holy Terrors to get to the bottom of things and save the play—and her income. But their investigation spurs the saboteur to greater heights. A strong start and I loved the theatre drama, but the mystery’s conclusion felt rushed.…

The Bone Drenched Woods
The Bone Drenched Woods, by L.V. Russell A story of one girl’s struggle to survive in a folk horror world ruled over by ancient, hungry entities and the power-mad men who serve them. Russell certainly has a way with words, evoking a haunting atmosphere around a rural cult, while highlighting the greed and abuse of those in power. The setting is gory and gorgeous, the descriptions lush and…

Hotblood! Volume 1: The Land of Promise
Hotblood! Volume 1: The Land of Promise, by Toril Orlesky In an alternate past where mythic creatures roam the US alongside humans, centaur Rook is hired to kill Asa Langley. But how can he turn on the only kind hand extended to him? The story is a lot cleaner and more focused than I remember from the webcomic, though just as beautiful and complicated. Orlesky’s art is gorgeous, emotive-lines…

But something is wrong, and the more Emily learns about the family who lived in the house before them, the more invested she becomes in figuring out what’s going on in her new home.
