Corambisby Sarah Monette432pp (Hardcover)My Rating: 8.5/10Amazon Rating: 4.5/5LibraryThing Rating: 4.44/5Goodreads Rating: 4.33/5 Corambis is the fourth and final book in Sarah Monette’s character-driven fantasy series, The Doctrine of Labyrinth. The first three books are Melusine, The Virtu, and The Mirador, respectively, and should definitely be read in that order. This is one of my favorite series of all time so Corambis was the 2009 release I was most looking forward to. While I enjoyed Corambis very much and thought it […]
Recently, Ana and Thea of The Book Smugglers asked me to participate in one of their features, the guest dare. Every month they dare someone to read and review a book they may not read otherwise (which is a fabulous idea and a lot of fun!). So today I’m over at their blog with a review of Dead Witch Walking, the first book in one of Thea’s favorite urban fantasy series, The Hollows by Kim Harrison. In return, I dared […]
Being the Amazon addict I am, I logged on today to discover the new cover art for Corambis is up! Corambis is the fourth book in Sarah Monette’s riveting “The Doctrine of Labyrinth” series and is scheduled for release on April 7 of 2009. To read a brief description of the book, go here.

The Miradorby Sarah Monette432pp (Hardcover)My Rating: 9/10Amazon Rating: 4.5/5LibraryThing Rating: 4.22/5Good Reads Rating: 3.92/5 To my great chagrin, The Mirador, the third book in Sarah Monette’s The Doctrine of Labyrinth series, is the last book in the series currently available. The fourth and final book Corambis has a projected publication date of sometime in 2009. The first two books in the series wrapped up a complete story arc and this novel takes place approximately two years after the end of […]
The Virtuby Sarah Monette512pp (Paperback)My Rating: 10/10Amazon Rating: 4.5/5LibraryThing Rating: 4.29/5Good Reads Rating: 3.93/5 Note: There may be spoilers for Melusine in this review. The Virtu, the second book in Sarah Monette’s The Doctrine of Labyrinth series, picks up where Melsuine left off and ties up all the loose ends from the first book. The series could have been brought to a satisfying conclusion with this book, but I am glad there is one more book out and one more […]
