Queen's Hunt (River of Souls, Book 2) (Fantasy)	50⁽¹⁾
Published by Tor Books on July 17, 2012

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 50
Whereas I enjoyed the slow unfolding of Passion Play's plot and character relationships, here the plot's slow pace detracted from the reading experience... Full Review Link

Monsters of Men (Chaos Walking Trilogy, Book 3) (Fantasy)	70⁽²⁾
Published by Candlewick on September 28, 2010 First Published by Walker Books Ltd in 2010

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 80
Flaws or no, this is a wonderfully moving, thoughtful reading experience and one which I highly recommend. Full Review Link

The Ask and the Answer (Chaos Walking, Book 2) (Young Adult Fantasy)	70⁽²⁾
Published by Candlewick on September 08, 2009

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 80
...I found The Ask and Answer to be more fully sophisticated in terms of the questions it offered up to the reader and its characterization, while retaining the first book's sense of tension and suspense. Full Review Link

Published by Candlewick on July 14, 2009 First Published by Candlewick in 2008

...it remained a highly effective reader book by book, extremely moving, and filled with a depth and level of thought that greatly enhanced the reading experience. Full Review Link

Caliban's War (The Expanse, Book 2) (Science Fiction)	80⁽⁵⁾
Published by Orbit on June 26, 2012 First Published by Orbit in 2012

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 82
There's a nice balance of shoot-em-up action (pitched gun battled, spaceship battles, etc.), political fighting (factions within factions, negotiations between parties), and personal conflicts (romance going sour, friendships being tested, war within oneself). Full Review Link

The King's Blood (The Dagger and the Coin, Book 2) (Fantasy)	87⁽⁴⁾
Published by Orbit on May 22, 2012 First Published by Orbit in 2012

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 90
Just as with The Dragon's Path, I zipped through The King's Blood in a single long sitting and didn't feel a moment's lag. Full Review Link

The Kingdom of Gods (The Inheritance Trilogy, Book 3) (Fantasy)	80⁽²⁾
Published by Orbit on October 27, 2011

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 80
The gods become deeper characters in this one, and the book as a whole has more of an emotional and philosophical heft to it than the prior two. Full Review Link

The Broken Kingdoms (The Inheritance Trilogy, Book 2) (Fantasy)	81⁽⁸⁾
Published by Orbit on November 03, 2010

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 80
...I was wholly engaged through nearly the entire trilogy with only a few patches of dead narrative space. Full Review Link

Published by Orbit on February 25, 2010 First Published by Orbit in 2010

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 80

The Broken Universe (Science Fiction)	60⁽¹⁾

Fantasy Literature	Review Rating: 60
It isn't a bad book; if you pick it up you'll probably end up satisfied overall if dissatisfied by aspects. Full Review Link
