THE LAST WIZARD’S BALL – Charlaine Harris
I was a little late to the game in reading this Gunnie Rose series, just as I was very late in reading Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse books (ie True Blood) but I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how much I’ve enjoyed both of these series. The Gunnie Rose series is a sci-fi, paranormal western where the Continue reading

BILLY THE KID: THE WAR FOR LINCOLN COUNTY – Ryan C. Coleman
I have to admit that I chose and started to read this book because I thought it was going to be a non-fiction book about Billy the Kid – an infamous outlaw about whom I know very little.

MONSIEUR EEK – David Ives
I fully admit that my main interest in reading this is because of the author, David Ives. I’ve seen a number of his short plays (I used to judge high school one act plays and if there was a year without a David Ives play, it was an unusual year). His plays are tremendously funny Continue reading
