Call of the Herald (The Dawning of Power) by Brian Rathbone





If you like fantasy, you will most likely like this book. Brian has a pretty good tale going, although the beginning is a little bit dry. I did struggle past the first chapter and found myself a little bit lost at first by what he was trying to convey with his scene on the comets.

The reader will eventually find out what the comets are all about later on in the book.

It does have a pretty good hook after the second chapter and I was late getting back to work on a few occasions. I just didn’t want to put this book down after I got past the gritty stuff.

The ending is kind of a cliff hanger but I was satisfied enough with the ending to give this book four stars.

I will even be reading the next book in the series. (I did like it that much.)

Exercises in Knitting






I took the download of this book hoping it would have knitting info in it that would be useful to me. There are no diagrams and most of the patterns are for items worn back in the 1920's.
I guess it would be good for someone who is looking to make costumes for that era.
Don't waste your Kindle shelf space with this book. Even if it is for free.

Go the F**k to Sleep



I could not help but take the free download of this on audible. I do have to agree, it did bring back memories of when my kids were small and they would refuse to go to sleep.
This is a good read for the new parent. Probably would make a nice Baby Shower gift for that unsuspecting new mother or father. They may appreciate this book when their new little one keeps them up all hours of the night.

I am not one for profanity.

This is why I have only given this book 4 out of 5 ****
