Victories Greater Than Death (Unstoppable #1)

Cover for Victories Greater Than Death (Unstoppable #1)

Review:

1) Great YA book
2) Yes, sure, the pro­nouns and such are a bit much for me, but that's just me be­ing old, I can take it
3) It has a gen­uine­ly scary idea for a "weapon" I had nev­er seen be­fore!

Review:

Can't say I re­mem­ber much of the first book in this se­ries oth­er than "I liked it".

This one is some sort of gob­lin-noir, and while the res­o­lu­tion felt a bit abrupt there's quite a lot of world build­ing packed in a small book which fore­bodes good things for the next one.

Review:

Love­ly

The epis­to­lary nov­el! Drac­u­la was one, this is an­oth­er one. And in ev­ery oth­er way this book is not Drac­u­la.

It's pret­ty good tho!

Review:

Do­mes­tic fan­ta­sy is a thing?

I had nev­er even heard of this gen­re, but I would prob­a­bly read Jo Wal­ton's gro­cery list, so I did and I am hap­py to have done it.
