Banner of the Damned by Sherwood Smith The Leaning Pile of Books

Thanks to a gift card I got for my birthday, I bought some new books that came out this month that were being recommended around the Internet.

Other features include new author spotlights, fantasy artist spotlights, movie reviews, and reading lists. I’m particularly fond of the large […]

Women in SF&F Month: Moira J. Moore

Today I’m excited to have a guest post from Moira J. Moore, author of the Heroes series! I have been having a great time reading the books in this series starting with Resenting the Hero. They are character-driven fantasy books centering on Lee, a young woman who has been trained to become a Shield, and Taro, the Source she has to work with (and isn’t at all happy to be paired with!). As a Shield, Lee protects Taro’s mind while […]
