REVIEW: Secrets of the Solstice Sacrifice by Giselle Renarde
The lovely Giselle Renarde has done it again, first capturing my attention, and then completely surpassing my expectations – if this keeps up, I’m afraid my expectations for her work are going to become simply unreasonable! Like Spring Fever, the Red Satin stories, and The Third Rail (see my reviews here, here, and here), this is another well-written story… Continue reading

Weekend eBook Deals!
Not sure what the occasion is, but I’m not about to complain – 3 of my favourite ebook stores have some major sales going on this weekend. As much as I’ve been trying to cut down on my purchases (for some reason, the bank seems to think their mortgage is more important than my books!),… Continue reading

REVIEW: Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson
With the final entry in the Malazan Book of the Fallen saga (The Crippled God) due in just a few short weeks, I wanted to step outside my usual genre of reviews and celebrate the book that began it all – Gardens of the Moon.

Hops, Follows, and Tag Alongs, Oh My!
It’s time for another Book Blogger Hop, courtesy of Crazy for Books! This week’s question is: “What book(s) would you like to see turned into a movie?” To be totally and brutally honest, not a single one. The best books never translate well to film.

REVIEW: The House of Blood by Wayne C. Rogers
Somewhere, deep inside each of us, is that one secret fantasy that we long to explore. No matter how prim and proper we appear on the surface, we all have that one fantasy that leaves us feeling conflicted and torn every time we consider it. For most of us, it’s a fantasy so intensely personal… Continue reading

Author Interview: M. Christian (author of The Bachelor Machine)
To help celebrate the ebook publication of his ground-breaking erotic science fiction collection, The Bachelor Machine, M.Christian has been kind enough to sit down and take part in a very exciting interview. Before we get onto that, though, let’s talk a little about The Bachelor Machine. New to the ebook edition is an introduction courtesy of the lovely Cecilia Tan… Continue reading

Monday In My Mailbox – What Are You Reading?
In My Mailbox and It’s Monday, What are you Reading? are weekly memes hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren and Sheila at Book Journey, respectively. Both are great ways to share the books you’re either reading, or shifting to the top of your TBR pile (because, let’s face it, sometimes a little shifting is the best we… Continue reading

REVIEW: A Night of Hunger & The Countess by Wayne C. Rogers
For those of you unfamiliar with the name, Wayne C. Rogers is perhaps best known for being the author of The House of Blood, a darkly disturbing erotic horror novel (filled with elements of female domination, BDSM, crossdressing, and sexual submission) about a husband and wife who are haunted by the ghost of a famously sadistic Las… Continue reading

Hops, Follows, and Tag Alongs, Oh My!
It’s time for another Book Blogger Hop, courtesy of Crazy for Books! This week’s question is: “Tell us about one of your posts from this week and give us a link so we can read it (review or otherwise)!“ I’m quite excited to have bookended my week with a giveaway and a review of… Continue reading
