The Immortal Abyss

 

Book: Immortal Abyss (Duology Book 2)

Author: Katherine Briggs

Genre: YA Fantasy

Release date: September 17, 2024

Seize the throne. Seek the legend and conquer the Abyss.

Nations rise and fall in the aftermath of war over the Eternity Gate. The corrupted desert throne stands empty, and the Immortal Abyss awakens. Drought ravages the continent, and people long for the rebirth of a starpalm, who will rise from among mortals and end their judgment.

Orphaned at birth, Tol grew up hiding in the farthest corners of the desert, training under powerful rebel fire wielders. She now dedicates her life to the Rebellion’s cause to seize the throne and Abyss from the surviving dynasty and deliver both to the coming deity.

Chosen as the Rebellion’s messenger, she travels to reach sympathizers capable of identifying the starpalm. Familiar figures haunt her dreams, and her path twists with every step she takes. Can Tol fulfill her purpose and summon a legend? Or will her country perish under the judgment of the twin gates?

 My thoughts: While I enjoyed the first book in this duology, this one wound up being my favorite! I enjoyed how everything came together in the story and that we had the chance to visit one of the other lands and see things through the eyes of a different character. 

My heart went out to Tol as she gave her all to help fulfil an ancient prophecy and aid a rebellion. I thought that the author did a wonderful job with the world building and adding more to what we discovered in the first book. I also loved the surprising twists and turns! This is an excellent story to pick up and enjoy! Just, be sure to read the series in order.

I received this book from Celebrate Lit. This is my honest review.

More from Katherine

Hello friend!

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t overcome something difficult in your life? Maybe it was a bad habit you wanted to outgrow, a closed door you wished to open, or a choice you needed to make.

Within God’s will, Jesus in Matthew 19:26 says, “With God, all things are possible.” (ESV)

This is why I wrote The Immortal Abyss. Like you, I have felt stuck in my limitations and circumstances. My protagonist Tol, an orphan, strives to carve a new life for herself by joining a rebellion and bringing reform to her corrupted country. But how can she serve her cause if she can’t overcome her weakness in her fire gifting?

Like Tol, we can’t rise above challenges alone. So, what do we do?

• Ask God for help and thank Him for promising to never abandon us.
• Seek friends who will reciprocate spurring one another on to persevere.
• Remain focused on our purpose.

If you’re looking for an adventure fantasy that will encourage you to never give up on what is good, please enjoy The Immortal Abyss, sequel to The Eternity Gate and conclusion to The Threshold Duology.

Cheers to journeying across forbidden lands, meeting new friends, taming dragons, and overcoming the impossible!

The Sign of the Calico Quartz

 

Welcome to the Blog Tour for The Sign of the Calico Quartz audiobook by Jan Drexler, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

About the Book

Title: The Sign of the Calico Quartz
Series: The Sweetbrier Inn Mysteries
Author: Jan Drexler
Narrator: Gillian Wiggin
Publisher: Swift Wings Press
Audiobook Release Date: July 24, 2024
Genre: Cozy Mystery

Solving a murder is easy, right? All you need to do is follow the clues, and they will lead you to the culprit. 

 At least that’s what Emma Blackwood thought before she and her cat, Tim, came to the Black Hills to work in Aunt Rose’s Sweetbrier Inn. Before she found a dead body in her living room. Before the hunky Deputy Sheriff accused her of murdering the poor guy. And before the real killer put her name on their list of victims. 

For this fan of Agatha Christie and a plethora of television crime dramas, it’s an intriguing situation that demands her skills. Investigating might not be as simple as it looks in fictional mysteries, but Emma’s organized mind and OCD tendencies start making sense of the clues…until she finds a second body with no apparent connection to the first. 

Sifting through evidence is easier with the help of her new friend, Becky, who provides baked goods for the inn, and Aunt Rose is always willing to take time from writing her mysterious memoirs to give support and advice. Wil, the inn’s chef, moves things along with a barbed comment or two, and Tim the cat and Rose’s corgi, Thatcher, make themselves available for fuzz therapy and to point the way to another clue. 

The list of suspects grows as Emma learns more about the inn’s guests and their reasons for visiting the Black Hills. From the honeymoon couple to Mysterious Montgomery, to the famous reality show ghost hunter, to the gold seekers, no one is the person they appear to be. Even Rose’s good friend Clara is hiding secrets in her pink chenille bathrobe. 

But as Emma pursues the investigation, things start to get personal. Can she identify the murderer before disaster strikes?  

My thoughts: I love a good, cozy mystery, especially this time of year! I enjoyed getting to know Emma and her aunt Rose, as they work together in the Bed and Breakfast and then have their cozy hamlet threatened by a murder. Emma has clearly been framed for it, with the victim having been found in her room, and it will take some work to figure out who would go to such lengths. 
I enjoyed the setting, since my family lived in the Black Hills when I was little. I also loved the variety of characters in the story. It's fun that the author had such a motley crew of guests at the end, with their being several of Emma's friends, as well as a ghost hunter. I can't wait to see where the rest of this series goes!

I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.

What's the Story, Morning Glory?

 

Welcome to the Blog Tour for What's the Story, Morning Glory? by Julie Lessman, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

About the Book

Title: What's the Story, Morning Glory?
Author: Julie Lessman
Publisher: Julie Lessman LLC
Release Date: October 1, 2024
Genre: Memoir Devotional (half fiction/half nonfiction)

“DEAR LORD, JULIE ... OUR WHOLE LIFE IS IN THIS BOOK!" 

My heart went out to my sweet husband as he walked into our kitchen one day with a noticeable gulp, ashen-faced after reading my latest novel.“Yes, I know, babe,” I said with a repentant smile and a conciliatory hug, “but nobody really knows that.” 
Ahem. Until now ... 

Trust me, "What’s the Story, Morning Glory? A Memoir Devotional with a 'Novel' Approach to Practical Christianity" is not a book I wanted to write. As a novelist, I have never been partial to nonfiction, either reading it or writing it, but I had little choice when God convinced me otherwise through a number of point-blank arm-twistings I couldn’t deny and not-so-gentle proddings from family and friends. 

Despite all the encouragement, I wasn’t really sure where to begin. “It will be fiction and nonfiction combined,” the Holy Spirit whispered within, and just like that, the idea for this book took flight. First, I would tell my “real” and very personal story behind the life-lesson stories in my novels, then I would follow it up with the excerpt from my books where I teach that same life lesson to my characters, finally culminating in corresponding Scriptures, a bulleted “Takeaway” list, and a related prayer. 

Thus, What’s the Story, Morning Glory: A Memoir Devotional with a “Novel” Approach to Practical Christianity was born. A memoir devotional that when combined with scenes from my novels, becomes a “novotional” where I relate the life lessons God personally taught me through His Word. I am simply a child of God who applied these lessons and Biblical precepts to every situation in my life and consequently, saw nonstop answers to prayer and blessings galore. It is my profound hope and prayer that through my own very simple and personal stories and examples, I can do the same for others. Therefore, the format for each chapter of this book will be as

1. The Real Story (How I learned and applied the spiritual lesson in my own life)
2. The Novel Story (The scene where I teach the spiritual lesson to my characters)
3. The Scripture Story (Scriptures applicable to the spiritual lesson)
4. The Takeaway Story (Bulletized points for spiritual lesson in easy-to-read/apply format)
5. The Prayer Story (Specific prayer related to the spiritual lesson)

I pray this bottom-line, albeit somewhat quirky, 1-2-3 devotional blesses you as much as God's spiritual life lessons have blessed me! 

Hugs,
Julie Lessman  

My thought: I enjoyed this unique devotional, with its blend of real life stories and scenes from Julie Lessman’s novels. I haven’t read all of her books, but I will still able to enjoy the pieces of her stories woven throughout. The devotional is on a variety of topics from all stages of life, making it a wonderful devotional for all ages. I highly recommend picking this devotional up!

I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review. 

Excerpt: 

“But to you who are listening I say: ‘Love your enemies,

do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you,

pray for those who mistreat you.’”

~ Luke 6:27-28 NIV

Chapter Six

From Hurt to Healed: The Footpath to Forgiveness

1.) The Real Story:

“Are you out of your ever-loving mind??!!”

Yep, that’s pretty close to what I said to my spiritual mentor, Joy—give or take a few more

colorful words—when she said I needed to forgive my father and restore the relationship.

Forgive my father? The man who beat me with his belt, his shoe, and a cat-of-nine-tails until

I peed on the floor? Called me an “angle-shooter” and reinforced my womanhood by telling me,

“don’t think you’re anything special—any whore can get them excited.”

The same father I hadn’t seen for two years, since the night my little sister Katie and I ran

away after he’d screamed and forced me to make his bed at 10:30 p.m.? I’d made the mistake of

giving him a dirty look while I did so, and you didn’t do that with Daddy. He raised a fist to hit

me and I reared back to fend him off with a kick to his stomach, calling him a very foul name

before Katie and I finally fled into the night.

Forgive that father?

Yeah, I don’t think so. Unfortunately for me at the time, God did think so, mandating that

very thing as the first mission I was to accomplish as a brand-new, twenty-three-year-old

Christian.

A grunt popped from my lips. Yeah, sure—Mission Impossible!

Only it wasn’t. My spiritual mentor, Joy, implied it was as easy as 1-2-3, and I already told

you how I am a black-and-white, bottom-line, 1-2-3 type of person. So I begrudgingly agreed to

try, implementing the following steps:

1.) Forgive my father (or if I couldn’t do that, pray that God would bring me to the point

where I could forgive him and give me the grace to do it).

2.) Pray for my father, that God would bless him and give me favor with him.

3.) Put feet to my faith (yeah, yeah, I know, but you better get used to hearing this phrase

because it’s a crucial part of success in becoming who God wants us to be).

The first two points weren’t too difficult because honestly? I was at a place in my life that if

God said, “Jump,” I would ask, “How high?” I was so tired of being miserable, I just wanted to

be set free from all the hate and bitterness inside.

But, yikes, that #3? It was a real killer because the last thing I wanted to do was to face my

estranged father after avoiding him for two years.

Maid at Christmas

 

Maid in Manhattan meets Safe Haven in this Hallmark Christmas-style series starter, Maid at Christmas, featuring sweet romance and a cozy holiday atmosphere with just a touch of tension.

She wants a fresh start. He's looking for purpose. Can Christmas at the Lockwood Lodge show them the future is brighter than the past?

When Sonora Jackson searches for a way out of New Orleans—and away from her ex-fiancé—she ends up exchanging beignets for a broom when she accepts a position in housekeeping at the Lockwood Lodge. The picturesque mountains of Vermont, and the luxury of the lodge at Christmastime, is exactly what she needs, but she didn’t bargain for the handsome, bookish man she meets there.

Graham Hastings needs a vacation more than he needs the worry over selling his company, but the two come hand in hand as he arrives in Vermont for an exclusive retreat for others just like him: billionaires. Focused on relaxing and recovering from yet another failed relationship, he’s not ready for the near-instant attraction he feels for Sonora. At least she’s like him—rich—and not likely to date him for his money.

Set against a snow-drenched backdrop of Vermont mountains and the quaint small town of Middlebrook with its own set of quirky characters, love blooms even as the truth separates. Can Sonora admit her status as a low-income maid and explain why she lied? Will Graham see past her profession to the heart of her feelings for him? And will he be able to keep her safe when her past comes calling?

Maid at Christmas is the first book in the Lockwood Lodge sweet romance series. This small town holiday romance features tropes like billionaire romance, age gap, and he falls first. There is a slight suspense thread included in this book, but it does not overshadow the cozy Christmas setting or aspect of sweet romance.

My thoughts: This story is a fun, Christmasy read to pick up and enjoy when you are in need of a little holiday magic. I enjoyed getting to know Sonora and Graham as they got to know one another. Both of them have just come out of relationships that left a bad taste in their mouths, leaving them questioning if the other is hiding similar faults to their exes. 

I enjoyed this sweet, holiday themed romance and the misunderstandings that come about as Sonora and Graham get to know one another. The lodge backdrop is perfect, and I look forward to reading the next book in this series. This is a delightful, Winter read to pick up and enjoy!

I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.

A Thieving at Carlton House

 

Welcome to the Takeover + Review Blitz for A Thieving at Carlton House by Erica Vetsch hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

About the Book

Title: A Thieving at Carlton House 

Series: Of Cloaks & Daggers #1 

Author: Erica Vetsch 

Publisher: Kregel Publications 

Release Date: Kregel Publications 

Genre: Regency Mystery Romance

Unlikely alliances form when a killer is on the loose... but who can be trusted?

The Home Office has asked Sir Bertrand Thorndike to head an investigation into stolen royal jewels. And as with everything concerning the Prince Regent, discretion is paramount. 

It's the perfect chance for Bertie to step out of his brother's long shadow. Unfortunately, his superior, The Duke of Haverly, has a plan that makes him balk: in order to sell his cover, Bertie must play the part of a man looking for love, ready to reform his rakish ways. The duke is willing to let Bertie name his own investigative team, but his recommendation that the team include 

Philippa Cashel has Bertie on his guard. Does the duke--known for his behind-the-scenes machinations--have an ulterior motive? Philippa Cashel escaped her life as one of society's best-known courtesans, devoting her life to helping other women in dire straits. So when Sir Bertrand Thorndike approaches her about joining his team as an agent of the Crown, she is skeptical. Why her? She's focused on getting her school for underprivileged women up and running, not in cloak-and-dagger skullduggery. Her hope is that if she labors hard enough at her charity work, she might begin to feel worthy of God's forgiveness of her past. 

When one of Philippa's rescued girls is arrested for stealing the royal jewels and another is murdered, Philippa will risk partnering with Bertie to find the loot and stop the killer. 

Two brilliant minds--with two wary hearts--and one cunning deceiver are on a collision course in Regency England. 

Beloved Regency author Erica Vetsch begins this new series with all the elements that keep her readers coming back. From historical accuracy to rousing mystery to deep character faith journeys, A Thieving at Carlton House will please Regency lovers--and anyone else who loves a great story.

My thoughts: I have enjoyed most, if not all of Erica Vetsch's stories, so I was thrilled to see that she has a new series out and to get my hands on an early copy. I love how the stories overlap, so we have the chance to catch up a bit with the characters from previous books. That said, she does a good job of including a list of the characters from previous series in the front of this book, so readers can read this one as a stand alone series. 

I loved the themes of this mystery! Bertie has been content to life in the shadow of his older brother and continue working for the crown in the same way he has for years. When he has the chance to lead his own missions, it starts to pull him out of his comfort zone. 

Philippa's life has totally changed since we first met her, giving her a chance to start a ministry to help other women in similar situations. As she starts her ministry in earnest, it is met with challenges at every turn. 
The mystery is interesting, though I would have loved to have a bit more twists to it. I also found the historical aspects of the story fascinating, learning some new things about the Regency time period. 
This is a wonderful start to the series! I look forward to reading the next book and getting to know Philippa and Bertie more!

Mossycoat

 

Troll Princess Horra Fyd may have succeeded in getting the druid seed to the magical Weald forest in time to sprout, but she’s finding that getting her kingdom back in order is not as easy as she hoped. Oddar’s subjects are rebelling and trolls are mysteriously disappearing without a trace. Horra and her father King Divitri are at a loss on what’s happening, but they know who’s behind it all.

When Horra’s summoned back to the Weald to meet Rowan, the new druid warrior, she finds the woodgoblin a know-it-all stick in the mud. Rowan’s not impressed with the troll princess, either. However, after a suspicious magical fire destroys the Weald, they’re forced to rely on each other to venture out in a kingdom that’s becoming more dangerous by the day.

Will Horra and Rowan be able to set their differences aside to become a strong team? Or will they fall into the Erlking’s traps, stopping their mission before it even gets started?

My thoughts: I enjoy the first book in this series and was looking forward to seeing where this one would take the characters! I highly recommend starting with the first book before diving into this one, since a fair bit of world building was done in the first book. But, I digress.

Troll Princess Horra has succeeded in her quest, but must set out on an adventure to figure out what is going on with the trolls going missing and why some of their subjects are rebelling. 

I enjoyed returning to the world and watching the characters develop over the course of the story! I love fantasy style books, especially ones that I can share with my daughter. I can't wait to see where book 3 takes the story!
