Space opera & a cookie dough croissant almost as big as my fat head

A very entertaining and fast paced sci-fantasy adventure. My favorite parts of the book are the characters and the pacing. So many epics suffer from pacing problems, whereas this kept me engaged throughout. It does have some tells of being a first book-it definitely is referential to other works, primarily Dune and the author overuses foreshadowing to a frustrating degree. However, I still liked the book a lot and will continue the series. 4⭐️

I had to go out first thing to help my dad transfer the Grey Cup tickets he won but can‘t use because he has a death cold. 😔 (Luckily, my uncle‘s gonna go with his neighbour, who‘s a hardcore Roughriders fan.) Now I‘m home with serious plans to read space opera and snuggle Geo, who‘s fluffed right out since I last saw him a month ago. Is he a small dog or a mop? It‘s tough to say but either way he‘s mighty cute.

One down 5 to go … I remember why I bought the next five now after finishing this on I really needed to find out what happened… and now I‘m going to with the next book 📖

This is the series I‘m focused on this month although there are more books on my November tbr this is the series I want to finish

This is my TBR for November (with the three books from my October tbr) I‘m rereading the tagged book as I have more of the series now. There are a lot of fantasy books but I really need to get these books read … if I don‘t finish some they will of course go to December but I read close to 30 books in October so here‘s hope I g I finish these

Established in her role, her legacy, and her kingdom, Hail has a new set of challenges & a new set of folks looking to kill her. The battle between the Faria & Shen people has reached Indrana's backdoor and Hail is called upon to negotiate. Guess that's what she gets for having a ruthless past amongst the criminal element of the galaxy. Thing is...nothing ever goes to plan for Hail & dodging bullets might just be preferable to playing peacemaker.

I read a lot of reviews after this that thought it was halfassed but I had a good time with it. There is a bit of learning curve as there are no traditional chapter breaks and a fair bit of timeline jumping but once I settled into that I was engaged. I also really liked the Dwellers.

I made a small start on STAR NOMAD yesterday, before post-vaccine wooziness set in, and I‘m pleased so far! While the series‘ prequel novella didn‘t grab me, this official first book has a good hook and some intriguing characters. I‘m eager to read on.
Also of note: I refreshed my Kobo case with a fruit bat sticker from a brand new local makers‘ shop I discovered today. I proved powerless against this 3D printed dragon, too.
