Dream of Wings & Flame #1
Kobolds, normally a joke race in any fantasy world, get their time to shine in this sweet progression fantasy by Cale Plamann. Samazzar, or Sam for short, is a freshly hatched Kobold. One of many growing up in a creche with his many brothers and sisters. Unlike them, though, Sam believes he is destined for greatness. After hearing the story of how kobolds are kin, of sorts, to dragons, Sam is determined to better his bloodline and evolve into a full-blooded dragon. «more»

Vigor Mortis #3
Honestly, I both enjoyed the heck out of this while being completely irritated. Usually, Podium Audio can be trusted to put out polished works. Yes, the previous books in the series did have a few minor things going wrong, but this one was next-level bad. I genuinely thought at some points that Jessica must be narrating in her garage while someone drove in and out occasionally. And it wasn't just occasionally; it was all the way through the 26 hours of this. In some parts, the audio quality dropped off so badly that it sounded like it was recorded over the phone. «more»

Chronicles of Sir Crabby #1
I pre-ordered Deepwater Dungeon, written by Ryan Rimmel and Boe Hagen, on the strength of Rimmel's other series, "Noobtown", and am regretting my haste a little. Maybe that's where I went wrong, assuming the humour and writing would be on par with his other work, but when split between two writers, it doesn't quite hit the mark for me. Overall, it felt slow and a little awkward most of the time, while other parts had me looking up the biology of sea creatures because of descriptions that didn't make total sense. «more»

Prophecy Approved Companion #1
I honestly had high hopes for this one, as it sounded great. A story told from the perspective of a Non-Player Character (NPC) in a video game world. After being glitched into surviving her death, Qube, the tutorial character, experiences life outside the starting village where she has lived her whole life. Unfortunately, due to her programming and the completely unlikable hero of the story, this just failed to win me over. «more»
