Nefertiti was far more than just a pretty face.

Nefertiti may be the dutiful daughter of a commoner, but her inquisitive mind often gets her into situations that are far from ordinary, like receiving secret lessons from a scribe. And she’s the kind of girl who acts first, and apologizes...

In asking for books with gender variant main characters, I was told to look up this alternate history book about a "true hermaphrodite". Within the first five pages, the author established the character's genital status with a gay sex scene, with no lube, with a complete stranger. So right off the bat,...

Author	Peter Dickinson
ISBN	0330415468

This book caught my eye purely based on the name of the author -- I grew up loving the movie "Flight of Dragons," and not only did Peter Dickinson write the book that movie is based on, but the filmmakers named the main character in his honor. A curious reason to pick up a book, perhaps, but it at least caught...

Author	Thomas Harlan
ISBN	0812590104

If someone were to ask what this reader's thoughts are on Thomas Harlan's second book in the Oath of Empire series, off the top of my head I would say that it is mighty descriptive. Not a slight detail is overlooked on anything written about the beard on Mohammed's face, the hair on Maxian's head, the legionary...

Let's start by saying that this is a old-school literary horror. That means there are no cheap thrills here, like a bunch of mummy's jumping out of every corner jelling: "BOOO!!!ARE YOU SCARED YET???" None of that here.

Don't mistake that with this book not being scary, because its scary as hell,...
