There was certainly a lot of action and danger for Nancy in The Mystery at Lilac Inn.

She always seems to have the right tools,...

I, Gaius Domitus, one-eyed rebel dragon king of the Provinces, know that better than most, since I have to fight off half my ungrateful family on a regular basis to keep law and order here in my lands. But I never expected to have to consort with a barbarian human woman.

In the virtual reality game Heir Apparent, there are way too many ways to get killed--and Giannine seems to be finding them all.

More mediocre fantasy from Stanton. In this one, Ari, Chase, and Lori have to deal with the consequences of taking the Scepter through the Gap. Because apparently that's a Thing That is Very Bad and upsets the balance of magic in the universe. And for some reason it means that Entia gets to issue Ari two...

I'm very glad to be near finished with this series. When it started out weak, I was sure it was going to get better. Unless something amazing happens in the last two books, it looks like I was wrong--things have actually gotten worse over the course of the past few books. Ari has turned into one of the worst...

This was a very fun little book! It's obviously for younger children, but I enjoyed it all the more for that because it was slightly lighthearted, a quick read, clean and not overly scary, with the good guys and badguys obvious. A delightful change from some of my other reading, especially with so-called...
