Blog Tour Review - Of Blood and Fire by Ryan Cahill

 Blog Tour Review - Of Blood and Fire by Ryan Cahill Born in fire. Tempered in blood. Epheria is a land divided by war and mistrust. The High Lords of the South squabble and fight, only kept in check by the Dragonguard, traitors of a time long past, who serve the empire of the North. In the remote villages of southern Epheria, still reeling from the tragic loss of his brother, Calen Bryer prepares for The Proving – a test of courage and skill that not all survive. But when three strangers arrive in the village of Milltown, with a secret they are willing to die for, Calen’s world is ripped from under him and he is thrust headfirst into a war that has been raging for centuries. There is no prophecy. His coming was not foretold. He bleeds like any man, and bleed he will. I loved Of Blood and Fire! It feels like a proper, old school fantasy. There are echoes of Tolkien here, as various races with long-seated antagonism towards each other have to come together to overthrow a great evil....

Six for Sunday - most anticipated books of 2018

Hiya.

Today's Six for Sunday is my most anticipated books of 2018.

I did have this worked out a few weeks ago, when I first saw the topic. Two of my most anticipated books were due for release on 4th January. But as it happens, Waterstones got both Sky Song and The Fandom in early, and I now have both the ARC and final release books for both these wonderful titles. Expect reviews soon!

So, with them excluded, here are my six most anticipated releases for next year:

  1. The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert. I love fairy tales and wonderland, and I am very excited about this book.
  2. How Do You Like Me Now by Holly Bourne. Honestly I still haven't read the copy of It Only Happens in the Movies I bought at the launch event, but I'm already excited for Holly's adult debut.
  3. Winds of Winter by George R R Martin. My most anticipated book of the last four years! This one still doesn't have a publication date, but I'm hoping it'll be out sometime in 2018. As soon as it has a date I'll be excitedly counting down the days. 
  4. Fire and Blood vol 1. by George R R Martin. I've read a couple of GRRM's 'history' of Westeros short stories in the anthologies Dangerous Women and Rogues, and really enjoyed them. He's planning a two volume collection of these with further stories fleshing out the history behind the Game of Thrones world, and has suggested that volume one might be out in 2018. Could we really get two GRRM books next year? Or will there be none, yet again?
  5. Song of Sorrow by Melinda Salisbury. I have issues with The Sleeping Prince, but I absolutely loved both The Sin Eater's Daughter and The Scarecrow Queen, so I've got high hopes for this new novel.
  6. Spark by Alice Broadway. Ink was one of my favourite books of the year, with a unique set up that really drew me into its world. This is the second volume of a planned sequel and I can't wait to see where Alice goes with the story.
Thanks again to Steph for coming up with these. I'm looking forward to seeing what she's got planned for next year. Check out her blog at https://alittlebutalot.wordpress.com/

    Printing custom designs has never been easier, especially when you have access to high-quality materials. Many businesses rely on innovative solutions to meet their clients' needs efficiently. For example, dtf transfers ready to press provide a convenient way to achieve professional results quickly. By choosing the right transfer, you can ensure vibrant colors and durability in your finished products. This approach streamlines the production process and enhances customer satisfaction.
