My Review of The Last Dragon Slayer

Review:

The Last Dragon Slayer by Martyn Stanley is the first book in the Deathsworn Arc series. Saul Karza is a wizard tasked with finding and killing a Noble Dragon. He is aided by two immigrants and a dwarf, but acquire the help of an elf and a dark elf along the way.

 

This story was good, but it could have used a bit of editing. I became invested in the characters as the story unfolded. It was a slow paced tale until the end, but overall a decent story.

My Review of Her Father’s Fugitive Throne

Review:

Her Father’s Fugitive Throne by Brandon Barr is the third installment in the Song of the Worlds series.

 

This story picks up where the second book ends, and I have to say that I am hooked on Brandon’s storytelling. It is by far one of the best series that I have ever read. I am so looking forward to more in this series!

My Review of The Bridge Beyond Her World

Review:

The Bridge Beyond Her World by Brandon Barr is the second installment of the Song of the Worlds series.

 

This story picks up where the first book ends. I was not expecting as much sci-fi elements, but it actually worked quite well within the story. Such excellent storytelling, Brandon has given me a new appreciation for genre mixing. This is such a well thought out and executed tale that, I have to say, it is one of the best stories I have ever read.

My Review of Her Dangerous Visions

Review:

Her Dangerous Visions by Brandon Barr is the first book in the Song of the Worlds series. This is a story of two women from two different worlds. We follow each woman on their quest to find their true destiny.

 

I loved the characters. They were so well fleshed out that I was drawn into their worlds. The world building is incredible. I found certain parts of this story to be disturbing, but it just added to the intrigue.

My Review of A Keeper’s Tale: The Story of Tomkin and the Dragon

Review:

A Keeper’s Tale: The Story of Tomkin and the Dragon by J.A. Andrews is a story about Tomkin Thornhewn, and his boredom with his role in life. He decides to seek out a dragon he heard tale of.

 

This is a wonderful story of courage and romance. I loved the way Andrews told this story. I was sucked in from the start. I’ll definitely be reading more of her work.

Definitive Sword and Sorcery: Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser by Fritz Leiber

mightythorjrs - The Black Blog of Nameless Cults

Welcome to my new series of post I am doing here on Mighty Thor JRS, Definitive Sword and Sorcery. At least what is definitive in my opinion. I will spotlight some of the best authors and books fantasy has ever known. I can’t wait to share these amazing books, authors, and the amazing cover art and artist. For my third post I am going to go with Fritz Leiber and his Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories. You do know Mr. Leiber is credited with coining the term “Sword and Sorcery” right? Of course you did! He was a true master.

As I become more and more disenchanted with modern fantasy and modern fantasy authors, I find myself going back to the books and authors that got me into fantasy in the first place. So I decided to shed some light on these books and authors. I am going…

As I become more and more disenchanted with modern fantasy and modern fantasy authors, I find myself going back to the books and authors that got me into fantasy in the first place.
