Synopsis Saturday: Tales of the Jedi

 

"Everywhere, there is life. Value it. Honour it."

 

Hello everyone!

 

As I promised when switching things up this past Tuesday, I come bearing gifts this Saturday evening, and they come from a galaxy far, far away.

 

You know we all love returning to it.

 

There are so many stories still to tell in any era to choose from that it's remarkable how there hasn't been even MORE to sustain us, yet here we are, and Dave Filoni seems to be doing something very right yet again.

 

Obviously his Clone Wars went on to become a HUGE success and managed to help fill in the blanks beteween Episode II and III, but these might be even better in some aspects.

 

Because what released just about a week ago were stories that you might have guessed at, but never truly witnessed until now.

 

So it's time to dig out those lightsabers, family. Tales of the Jedi need us to be at our best!

 

Saturday Snippet: Night of Ash

 

 

No way I'm NOT hyping this one, it releases next month and OHMYGOSH!

Tome Thursday: Idriel's Children

 

Hello everyone!

 

I return, and I bring goodies.

 

Pretty much just before my vacation starts - and let me tell you I'm excited for THAT - I've finished reading another one of those books that's just a must-have even though you would think that there's so many floating around that it's just another.

 

But no.

 

It isn't just another.

 

I was super surprised when Hayley Reese Chow reached out to me to review the continuation of her Odriel's Heirs saga, and obviously I said yes. You don't say no when an opportunity like that comes knocking.

 

I do owe the author a small apology though since it took me a bit to get to the sequel, but it's here now, and around all the packing and insanity happening all around, let's have a look at just what makes Idriel's Children such a good book, shall we? It's time to dive into some fantasy mayhem, some low-key kind of dangerous stuff, and say hi to a sarcastic cat.

 

Tome Thursday: Odriel's Heirs

Hello everyone!

In this week's book review, we take a look at a tome that hasn't actually been published yet.

That's right, I'm talking about another advanced reader's copy which I was lucky enough to be gifted.

I've been going through a few at this time, I still have one I have to finish, but out of the lot this might be my favourite, probably because it's a fantasy novel, and fantasy, as you all know, is one of those things I THOROUGHLY enjoy.

So what do you do when there's a dark sorcerer/demon rising, there's another army you've got to deal with before you can even begin to contemplate how you'll kick him back to kingdom come, and you're missing the third part of your trifecta to be successful?

Well, you kind of start an epic journey. And hope beyond hope that everything's going to end well as you do it.

While you're at it, you also listen to the advice of one crusty cat, and help keep him warm when the snow starts falling.

All that, and more, is what we're going to find in Odriel's Heirs.
