Rabbits by Terry Miles ~ a Review

by MK French


Rabbits is an alternate reality game that began in 1959, using the entire world as its canvas. Ten editions had come out since its beginning, with nine winners that no one can identify, and no one knows what they actually won. Now it's the eleventh iteration, and the millionaire Scarpio, rumored to be the sixth winner, hires the Rabbits obsessive K to fix what went wrong with the game. But Scarpio goes missing before K can figure it out, and the world may pay the price.

Crown of the Sundered Empire by J.C. Kang ~ a Review

by MK French


Tomas has a misshapen face and a glass eye, so the townsfolk make fun of him. The only person that doesn’t is the Rune vendor’s daughter, and he tries to convince her that he has second sight to impress her. However, when magic-fearing invaders remove his mismatched eye, the glass replacement is actually demon-infested. Now he truly has second sight after a fashion and has to use his cunning to maneuver through the world without letting the surrounding armies know about the demon, which would carry a death sentence.

2 Audiobooks for Fans of Historical Fiction

by Donna Huber


There is not much I love more on a warm summer day than to lay in the shade with my eyes closed and a breeze softly wafting across my skin. What makes that scenario even better? An audiobook that transports me to a different time or place. Two audiobooks that I recently listened are perfect for such a day. Both are historical fiction stories based on real people in real places.

The Librarian of Saint-Malo by Mario Escobar ~ a Review

by Susan Roberts


"My hope is that someday when humanity regains its sanity, people will know that the only way to be saved from barbarianism is by love:  loving books, loving people and, though you may call me crazy, loving our enemies.  There's no doubt that love is the most revolutionary choice and, therefore, the most persecuted  and reviled."
