Book Review - Riyria Chronicles #2 Rose of the Thorn by Michale J Sullivan

The Rose and the Thorn by Michael J. Sullivan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series just keeps getting better and better. I am loving these prequels as they reveal more information that couldn't be put into the Revelations. Can't wait to see if there will be a third one!! I loved seeing how the Rose and Thorn came to be and what it took for Royce and Gwen to know each other. The tempering of the characters is wonderful. We see the origin of Hilfried, Princess Arissa's bodyguard. We learn of certain peoples betrayal and of course we witness the events that lead to the formation of Riyria, men for hire.

Book Review - Riyria Chronicles #1 The Crown Tower by Michael J Sullivan

The Crown Tower by Michael J. Sullivan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It is so interesting finding out the early story of Royce and Hadrian. I think because I have read the Revelations, this series adds so much to their relationship. We see how Gwen started, and how she meets Royce. Very well written and it was like coming home. No jaggardness you can get when you are returning to a world, especially a prequel.

Loved it and I really want to read the Rose and the Thorn when it is released, which is wayy to long away.

Book Review - Heir of Novron - Michael J. Sullivan

Heir of Novron by Michael J. Sullivan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am half way through and am marking this as a five star book!! I have loved this series from the very first book!! You have everything, thieves, murder, conspiricy, love, blood, magic... It all comes together with a seamless plot that keeps you on your toes. I read the first two then went on marternity leave. It wasn't until 7 months later that I could start reading book three - The book picked up right where I left off and I didn't need to re read the previous books.

One of my favourites is Royce, he has such character to him. You don't know if he will laugh or kill you. Or proberly do both if you piss him off. All the players in these books are well thought out and the develop over the time of the series.

All in all a fantastic series that I highyly recommend! It is a bit like a cross between Jim Butchers Codex Alera series and Fiona McIntosh's Quickening series.

Definatly check it out you fantasty lovers!!
