I bring you a Sami edition review.In other words, it was written by my seven-year-old daughter on a book that is vaguely for her reading level...Yes, that's her kindleTitle: The Key of the KilenyaAuthor: Andrea PearsonRating: 5/5It had heaps and heaps and heaps of magic! And there were special healing trees. And all the bad guys … Continue reading Review of The Key of Kilenya by Andrea Pearson

Review of Kiya: Hope of the Pharaoh by Katie Hamstead
Ugh, the cover does not do B&W wellTitle: Kiya: Hope of the PharaohAuthor: Katie HamsteadRating: 4/5Firstly, I'd like to state I am crazy about Ancient Egypt. More precisely, the mythology before this period (Atenism seems so bland next to the customary religion of that time). Let's just say that, while I enjoyed the story later … Continue reading Review of Kiya: Hope of the Pharaoh by Katie Hamstead
Review of Going Postal by Terry Pratchett
Title: Going PostalAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 5/5I was plagued by an urge to watch Going Postal all throughout reading this book. Perhaps it's because I've done so before many times. The part where the good guys are victorious is different, for sure, but no less fanciful and still in line with Moist's character and I sort … Continue reading Review of Going Postal by Terry Pratchett
Review of Monstrous Regiment by Terry Pratchett
Title: Monstrous RegimentAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 4/5Set in the strange world of Borogravia where living is practically an abomination, this tells the tale of Polly Perks as she disguises herself as young Oliver (socks and all) to get into the army to find her brother. Simple, right? Pfft, I should know better than to expect that … Continue reading Review of Monstrous Regiment by Terry Pratchett
Review of Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett
Title: Wee Free MenAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 5/5I loved the Nac Mac Feegles when they appeared in Carpe Jugulum. Though they were a little tough to understand then. They're better in this, though not laughing while reading this book in public is a problem. They are certainly a gung-ho lot.But of course, this book (bar a … Continue reading Review of Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett
Review of Death and What Comes Next by Terry Pratchett
Title: Death and What Comes NextAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 5/5This is an amusing short story (very short, actually) in which a philosopher tries to outwit Death. Worth a read.Can be got here: http://www.au.lspace.org/books/dawcn/dawcn-english.html
Review of Night Watch by Terry Pratchett
Title: Night WatchAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 6/5 ^_^I think ... I think Sam Vimes just knocked Death off the top of my most beloved Discworld characters list with this story.This is one of the best stories I've read from Pratchett. A little amusing in spots, but in a darker fashion to most. Which stands to reason, … Continue reading Review of Night Watch by Terry Pratchett
Review of The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents by Terry Pratchett
Title: The Amazing Maurice and his Educated RodentsAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 5/5This ... this is a bit of a go at the Pied Piper story. With a touch of Puss in Boots. And practically every fluffy bunny story every written. Mostly told by Maurice along with an assemblage of Changed, and quite educated, rats.The story is … Continue reading Review of The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents by Terry Pratchett
Review of The Last Hero by Terry Pratchett
Title: The Last HeroAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 5/5Simple plot to this one. The last hero wants to return to the gods what the first hero stole. In Discworld, that means fire, which would mean the end of the world. So naturally, someone's got to stop them. Of course, it's not that simple (whenever is it?).But this … Continue reading Review of The Last Hero by Terry Pratchett
Review of The Thief of Time by Terry Pratchett
Title: The Thief of TimeAuthor: Terry PratchettRating: 5/5This was certainly an interesting one. The Auditors are once again trying to rid the universe of life.As such, Susan is featured heavily in this one and, as with The Hogfather, I very much enjoyed her "at the end of the day, someone's got to tip the wee … Continue reading Review of The Thief of Time by Terry Pratchett
