| This felt a little like kismet because someone posted a recommendation for This Is My Church that got it added to my TBR literally days before I met the author themselves. In person. With the book sitting right there in all its signed glory, Lacy's ...more | |

"I am the Light Bearer, Traveler of Worlds and the Great Adversary. Do you really think a shark is a threat to us?" I snorted. "I doubt the sharks will know about all your fancy titles. They'll just see a tasty snack with a smoky aftertaste." What ...more |

While I will always have a soft(er?) spot in my heart for Red Heir, I greatly enjoyed the return to Aguillon and being thrust into (geddit? ;) ) Benji and Calarian's With a setting so picturesque you ...more |

| Mind-centered magic - telekinesis, in my case - was best wielded by those with great mental fortitude, self-control, and the inner peace of a Buddhist monk. Having been blessed with none of those qualities, I made do with self-loathing, bouts of r ...more | |
“The world doesn’t fix itself just because someone points out its inherent unfairness.”
― A Knife and a Blade

“I’d said fuck it then, hadn’t I? What had changed? My future – my life – was far from certain, and Ren had many enemies. What did tomorrow matter if it never even came?”
― A Whisper and a Breath

“But if this was to be my end – and it sure as fuck was coming, for my breaths were slower, my heartbeat faster, and everything was starting to feel ever so cold – then I wanted to go out like him. Like my beautiful Mathias, proud and determined, and the best man I’d ever met.
And so even though it felt fucking impossible, I moved my hand. Not much: just an inch, and even that cost me every remaining scrap of strength and willpower I had left in me, but enough to wrap around Panarin’s ankle where he stood over me. Enough to tighten my fingers so that he glanced down in surprise, and then disdain.
Not enough to achieve anything more. I couldn’t pull him off balance, or keep him away from Mat, but I could distract him for that tiny second, a moment that could make a difference even though it probably wouldn’t.
It was a useless, futile move, but I did it anyway.
Because it’s what Mat would have done.”

“The Commander gave a soft snort. “Naww. The little cub doesn’t realise he’s lost his claws.”
“He will,” Velichkov said with some amusement now playing about that normally serious-as-fuck face of his. “When he realises that what he did to Nathanael, I will do to him.”
