This is part two of the BEA book haul including fantasy, science fiction, and horror books that are not in the young adult category.  I’ll also be posting about books I saw in fall catalogs that look fantastic and about BEA and the Book Blogger Convention later.  But for now here are some (signed!) books that I got that I’m excited to read that you may be interested in checking out. The Children of the Sky by Vernor Vinge This […]

Namely George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire and Brandon Sanderson’s Mistborn. Ubisoft has a PC game scheduled for release in September called A Game of Thrones: Genesis.  It’s a RTS starting approximately 700 years before the beginning of the book A Game of Thrones and leading up to that point.  For more information, read this article or visit the official site.

Fox & Phoenix by Beth Bernobich After reading Passion Play, I really wanted to read Beth Bernobich’s young adult book coming out this fall.  So when the author contacting me about receiving a galley to review, accepting was a no-brainer!  Now that I’ve had a chance to look through it, I’m looking forward to it even more.  It sounds really good, and I loved the opening […]
