31. Spellwright by Blake Charlton

Nicodemus Weal is an apprentice wizard studying at Starhaven. Unfortunately, he is also a cacographer; every time he tries to write a spell or study from a spellbook, his touch is enough to change the spelling and change the magic. However, he learns well from listening to his mentor, Magister Shannon.

The two must uncover who keeps sending golem after golem into Starhaven. which cacographer the golems seek, and why. Why does each golem visit wind up with another death? Who infested the libraries with bookworms? Is Nicodemus part of a prophecy? If so, which part - the one who will destroy all human language, or the one who will prevent that catastrophe?

Along will unravelling all these mysteries, Nicodemus and Shannon must protect the other cacographers - including many children - avoid (possibly) unfriendly factions during the huge wizard summit being held at Starhaven, and so much more...

Blake Charlton does a wonderful job of intertwining all these narrative threads without anything getting confusing. He plot never lets up on the pace, but the plot is paced so well that you can’t wait for the next event. The characters are fully fleshed out and feel like real people rather than the static two-dimensional cardboard cutouts that are so prevalent these days, It’s easy to tell he put a lot of thought and effort into his writing. The fact that he did all this with severe dyslexia just makes him amazing!

30. In the Time of Dragon Moon by Janet Lee Carey

Uma’s father is the village medic, known as the Adan. Uma is working as his assistant in the hopes that she someday will be his successor. They both know that girls “cannot” become anything other than mothers according to the laws of their village, yet Uma acts surprised when her father returns from meeting with the village elders and confirms this.

Then the king’s soldiers march into the village, demanding the help of the Adan. Even though the king and queen have a grown son, ready to ascend to the throne soon, it seems the queen is desperate to have another baby. Uma joins her father in the prison wagon and they are taken to the palace as most of the soldiers remain to hold the village hostage.

This could have been a good story about a young woman discovering her inner strength and developing some independence, but Uma never shows these traits very well. Take the masked ball, for example. Uma tries on the costume provided for her. At first, she loves it. Then she thinks on all the times her family and neighbors would dance at the Moon festivals - and the times they were not allowed to or not able to. She thinks about the soldiers holding her entire village hostage to make sure she cures the queen and about how they are most likely not being allowed to dance at this Moon festival. She decides to remove her costume as a show of sympathy, support and solidarity to her villagers. She goes to the king to ask their release. This is all well and good, but later that same evening, she’s at the ball in costume. It seems she forgot rather quickly about her village.

Also, at that very ball, Jackrun is dancing with a “woman wearing wings” on her costume. But Uma tells Jackrun that he was “dancing with a mermaid.” While costumes can get very creative, I have never seen any version of a mermaid that had wings.

There are other problems too. In the back story of Uma’s parents, they move faster than is believable. They met when she was new in the village and he was trying to save a mother giving birth to twins. The two of them work together and succeed. The problem here is that it’s described as “saving the life of a mother and her newborn twins.” This makes it sound as though only one life was saved. The way I count, one mother plus two babies equals three lives saved.

The next morning, the two of them celebrate their success by bathing in the river together. They soon discover that their shared bathing means they have a baby of their own on the way. These two have gone from total strangers to expecting their first child in less than twenty-four hours! While some people might move pretty quickly, this is ridiculous!

There are some grammatical errors that are relatively minor, but they are jarring enough to warrant a mention here. There are many times the author misuses the phrase “will-o-the-wisps.” This is not correct. It should read “wills-o-the-wisp.” The “o-the-wisp” part is a prepositional phrase and as such is never correct when written in the plural form.

Also, there is the phrase “bring it out to Tabitha in the foreyard.” There rule is, “bring it here, take it there” with “here” and “there” designated as being from the speaker’s perspective. With Uma as the speaker, “here” would be in the kitchen and “there” would be in the foreyard. Therefore, the correct version of that sentence would read: “take it out to Tabitha in the foreyard.”

Overall, this book was a study in wasted potential. Uma is too passive a character to be worth following through the entire story. It’s one thing to have a protagonist who is essentially a child who must grow into adulthood through trials and hardships. At least then she would be interesting, because we could watch her grow in strength and confidence as she gains experience. After all, that is the point of a story arc. But it’s quite another to keep that character stuck in immaturity throughout the entire narrative.

Plus, the poor editing instantly and repeatedly jarred me from being able to sympathize with Uma’s story.

29. The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter

Kate’s mom is dying of cancer. She’s been fighting it for years, and now it’s the end of the line for her. The two move from New York to the mom’s childhood home so she can die in peace. This town is completely unknown to Kate; it’s so different that it might as well be another world. The only arrangement her mom makes for Kate’s future is to enroll her in the local high school so she can at least have that done by the time Mom dies. Yes, Kate is eighteen by this time, but her mom has never made arrangements for someone to help Kate with things like planning the funeral. Eighteen may be legally an adult, but it’s still awfully young to take on something so big alone. And then to provide *everything* for the rest of her life alone, living in a strange town and having no support system, Kate is essentially set adrift. She doesn’t even have any job experience yet.

At school, Kate meets some of the local teens. The one the author picks to become Kate’s best friend is Ava, a popular snob who jumps into a river knowing that Kate can’t swim - Kate’s terrified of getting in the water. When Ava lands, she hits her head on a rock and Kate *must* jump in to save her. Kate succeeds, but Ava is dead. Henry shows up and saves Ava on condition that Kate join him in the Underworld. So Kate becomes a new Persephone.

Although the premice of retelling the Hades/Persephone myth had potential, the book quickly degrades into mere adolescent “romance” of the type where hormones take over and clear thinking need not apply. Kate finally accepts that her mother is dying. Her entire reason for doing all this has evaporated, so she has no reason to stay. The fact that she falls for Henry (Hades) makes her seem more like someone with Stockholm syndrome than someone in love. After all, she doesn’t know what it’s like to be in love; her mother’s been fighting cancer since Kate was barely a teenager, Kate’s never dated, she has never had a father to give her any perspective and she’s essentially been held prisoner for months. Yes, she thinks she did this of her own free will, but she stayed in Eden only under duress; her friend Ava just died and Kate thinks that she can save her mom by agreeing to this arrangement. True falling in love is more to do with wanting to “spend the rest of our lives together” and much less to do with “I’ll stay with you if you let my mom live” or “my friend just died.”

28. Silver by Rhiannon Held

The story opens with a woman running for her life. Through the woods. She’s been doing this for some time now. With her is Death, as her companion. She’s lost much of her memory, including her name. She’s pursued by Andrew Dare for entering his werewolf pack’s territory without permission. Dare’s mission is to find her pack and take her home. What he discovers is a mystery that runs deeper than he could have imagined. There’s another lone out there - one who is even more insane than Silver herself seemed to be.

Rhiannon Held intertwines the wolf pack mentality with human societal norms through some interesting mythology. The pace of the plot and character development pull you right along through the book, so that while it may look long it never feels like it drags.

27. The Book Stops Here by Kate Carlisle

Brooklyn Wainwright makes a living restoring old books. When she appears on This Old Attic and appraises a copy of The Secret Garden, the turmoil begins. A man comes from nowhere saying that the book is really *his* and that he wants it back. Then Vera, who had Brooklyn appraise the book on the show, turns up dead.

Now Brooklyn must solve the mystery. Who killed Vera? Was the book hers? Or did it belong to the angry man who says Vera found the book at his garage sale? If he wanted to keep it, why did he sell it?

While this book explains the process of restoring older books to a readable condition a bit too in-depth for me, I find that the characters are (mostly) well-developed and hold my interest. The plot has enough mystery and drama to keep me turning the pages and the pacing is done pretty well. All in all, it’s worth reading.

26. The Wizard’s Ward by Deborah Hale

The framework for this story is the standard “chosen one” plot. The sheltered Innocent, the wizened Mentor, the Rogue With a Heart of Gold. But this book is still a page-turner.

Maura Woodbury has been raised by the wizard Langbard. He has taught her the old ways - magic, healing, herb lore and the original Umbrian language. He has taught her the legend of the Waiting King and his Destined Queen.

Out gathering herbs one day, she meets an outlaw called Rath Talward. Langbard insists that Rath accompany them as a guard on their journey south. They must meet up with a woman who has vital information to the location of the Waiting King. He is needed to end the tyrrany of the Han, who invaded the kindom years ago. The Han have divided the people from their heritage; the children are growing up without knowledge of their own history, culture or even their own language. Many are homeless. The people are subverted under the rule of the Han, whose core belief is that only the strong deserve to survive - any who are ill, injured or otherwise weak are unworthy of existance.

Within the “chosen one” framework are plenty of elements to keep the pages turning. And while there is a romantic subplot, this author knows to take the time needed to build a believable relationship between the characters.They don’t simply meet, then fight, then succumb to lust - as in so many “romances” these days. Instead, they see each other through many rough patches (which are kind of unavoidable when you’re out to save the world). This gives them time to know each other as people first and to build a friendship with mutual respect. More authors should understand this concept better.

25. Unhooked by Lisa Maxwell

Gwen and her mother had moved nonstop for as long as she can remember. All along, she’s watched her mom become frightened by something that nobody else can see or hear. But they run for their lives anyway.

Then Gwen learns what her mother has feared all along. Gwen and her friend Olivia are captured by flying fey creatures and taken to Neverland. The girls are separated. Gwen is taken to the ship of Captain Hook. She sees first-hand how unlike J. M. Barrie’s story this Neverland really is.

Gwen must find and rescue Olivia. To do this, she must learn the truth behind each encounter and brave the unimaginable perils of Neverland. She must uncover each layer of the truth around her and puzzle out how each new piece of information she learns fits into the big picture. Through her journey and detection, she uncovers the truth of her own past to learn why her mother had them both on the run for so long.

Not one character is as simple as they first appear to be. Each is written with imagination and complexity that make the story a quick read. Each is given some compassion, letting the reader connect in a way that is never possible with cardboard characters. The world-building is inspired.

24. The Mouse That Roared by Leonard Wibberley

The Duchy of Grand Fenwick is only three miles by five. Yet it somehow managed to win the war against the United States.

They declared war because their livelihood was under threat. A California winery was making a cheap imitation of Pinot Grand Fenwick, the only export of this tiny nation. The plan was to lose the war and have America rebuild Grand Fenwick financially. This would alleviate Grand Fenwick’s problems arising from being a tiny nation with a growing population and corresponding expansion of their land mass.

The problem is: Grand Fenwick won the war. Their declaration of war was accidentally dropped in a river, put behind a radiator to dry, and promptly forgotten. When Grand Fenwick‘s expeditionary forces landed in New York City, they found no one about. The whole city was hiding underground, practicing in case of a nuclear attack, and none the wiser about the war above them.

The invaders managed to capture a general as well as a scientist. This scientist was the greater prize because he had invented the “Q-bomb,“ which was also captured. All these spoils of war were taken to Grand Fenwick, leading to many international armies descending on the tiny nation - either to steal the bomb or protect Grand Fenwick from those who would steal the bomb... or both.

This entire book is an exercise in absurd comedy, but each component of the plot is plausible enough and interwoven into the narrative so well that not one item can be completely discounted as being beyond the realm of possibility.

23. Sherlock Holmes and the Apocalypse Murders by Barry Day

I always loved Sir Arthur’s stories on Sherlock Holmes. So it’s great to find someone who can write a Holmes story in Conan Doyle’s style. This book makes a nice tribute to the original set of Holmes tales.

Sherlock Holmes must stop a madman from murdering about half the people in London. On his side, he has the ever-faithful Doctor Watson, his brother Mycroft, Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard and a surprise teammate - Oscar Wilde. The identity of the madman - and his history with Holmes - will be an even greater surprise... one I will not spoil here...

The climax of the story is set on February 14, 1895. This date is not only when the madman “Janus Cain” and his cult of followers (the Church of the New Apocalypse) plan to carry out their dastardly scheme, but it is also when one of Oscar Wilde’s most famous plays premiered: The Importance of Being Ernest. (Personally, I enjoyed watching this play - albeit a rather later performance.)

“Janus Cain” is the current pseudonym of a murderer Holmes pursued years earlier and caught. But "Cain” was sent into exile rather than prison. Holmes must again stand against this adversary to save many lives and for the good of all England.

Even though this book is part of a series, it’s a stand-alone tale. The pacing pulls you right along without leaving you breathless - it’s a real page-turner. The characters are believable and likable (except Cain). There’s even a nice surprise with the tie-in to Norse mythology. Having read about two thousand or so pages on this subject myself, I’m always pleased to see it put to good use in modern literature.

22. The Shape-Changer’s Wife by Sharon Shinn

Things are not always as they appear. This may be a popular quote these days, even to the point of being almost cliche, but the underlying truth still holds. A young man, Aubrey, is a magician by virtue of innate talent developed through years of training under a benign mentor. One day, he is sent to his mentor’s rival to further his magical education.

His education expands his mind in ways he never could have imagined. This new teacher is rarely home. When he is, the two have thier lessons. When he leaves - sometimes for weeks at a time - Aubrey is left mainly to his own devices. As the weeks turn into months, he is puzzled by the strange servants... and the even-stranger Lady of the household. In time, Aubrey manages to unveil what he suspected almost from the beginning; that his host is up to something completely self-serving and harmful to those around him.

Aubrey must decide what, if anything, to do to help his new friends. He must unearth who the people around him are, what his host / tutor is doing to them, why the people in the village avoid this lot as much as they can. He must learn if there is anything he *can* do to help a magician most experienced, more powerful and more ruthless than he is. And he must do all this without tipping his hand too soon.

While this book gets off to a bit of a slow start, there’s still enoug mystery to keep the story moving along. Once the action starts building, the momentum escalates nicely to the climax and pulls the reader right along.

21. The Time Keeper by Mitch Albom

This book beings by invoking the beginnings of the world so vividly and so beautifully that you'll want a time machine to go see it in person. Dor is the first man to measure time. He goes beyond dividing day from night. He builds the first clock with water bowls and the first-ever sundial. Nobody understands why he does such things or why time (for which they have no concept) monopolizes his attention almost to the exclusion of everything else.

When he finds himself trapped in a cave, his isolation from everyone and everything he ever held dear is taken from him. He does not age, but he knows that his family does. In his cave, he hears all the anguished cries of the many people who want more time. He hears the ever-increasing din resultant from those who do as he once did - measuring time. He must figure out which ones he is meant to help and what he is meant to do for them.

This book pulls you in and occupies a significant portion of your attention, so it is best to set aside enough time to finish it in one sitting. Otherwise, it may distract you at a most inopportune time. That said, the story is so compelling that you'll want to find other books by this author.

20. The Mermaid’s Child by Jo Baker

There’s no reason to care about any of the characters in this book. Without such caring, there’s no reason to bother reading it.

The story centers on Malin, a child in a small isolated town where everyone hates her. I don’t mean that some of the other children bully her; I mean that the only person in the entire book who does not bully her is her father - and that’s only because he’s so lost in his own little world that he barely notices his own daughter’s existence.

The grandmother spews venom on this child. When Malin asks about her mother (who left when Malin was tiny), her grandmother merely responds, “she were a whore.” Such a word is innapropriate for young ears and such an attitude is generated by a hate-filled worldview, but the grandmother doesn’t care.

The schoolteacher doesn’t care about *any* of her young charges, but she feels most strongly against Malin. When the older children bully Malin, she can’t tell the teacher because the blame will fall squarely on Malin’s own head.

It’s no wonder that, when the circus comes to town and everyone goes outside to see it for themselves, Malin never bothers to return to school. She sneaks into the tent to see the show and can only hide so she won’t get accused of causing problems. (She doesn’t have to cause any to be blamed this way - she only has to be seen.)

There’s only so much a sane reader can take before the entire book is tainted by all the nastiness in all the characters and thier total *lack* of redeeming characteristics. It’s one thing for people to dislike someone for doing evil, but it’s quite another to do so because this little girl was born (possibly) out of wedlock, or because her mother didn’t bother to stick around. These things are the actions of others based on decisions this child never made. If an author wants to write about pointlessly hate-filled people, that certainly does *not* mean the book is one that I would ever reccommend.

19. The Autobiography of James T. Kirk by David A. Goodman

This book ties together the entire life of Captain Kirk as portrayed by William Shatner nicely. Every story from The Original Series and the movies gets covered, but not just what was on screen. Told from Kirk’s own perspective, we find out the thinking and motivations behind many of Kirk’s decisions. A few of Kirk’s might have seemed to make little to no sense on the first viewing, but this book provides the internal dialogue the show couldn’t always share with the audience. We see what Kirk tried to accomplish and how he was not infallible. We watch as he grows up, makes his way through Starfleet Academy and then rises through the ranks.

We see how events unfold over the course of Kirk's lifetime. At the Academy, Cadet Kirk explains how he admires Khan Noonien Singh. While Cadet Kirk understands that Khan tried to take over the world, he had qualities that Kirk could respect, like his high intelligence. However, the instructor explained that one cannot and should not admire another person's abilities when they are used for such an evil goal. This particular lesson would not sink in until years later. When Kirk met Khan in person, he still held this admiration for the man. This led Captain Kirk to an act of apparent mercy; letting Khan have a planet to rule in exile rather than taking him to a Federation court. Kirk thought Khan deserved better than to languish in prison for the rest of his days. It wasn't Khan's escape from this planet that Captain Kirk finally understood his mistake - and the lesson from his Academy days became clear.

As James Kirk grew up, he never really knew his father. In those early days of the Federation, children were not allowed on starships. Many of them rarely saw the parent who served and were essentially raised by single parents. This pattern continues with David Marcus, Captain Kirk's son by Dr. Carol Marcus. There's one moment in the book that sums up Kirk's regret at not being able to be the father h wanted to be to young David. Carol Marcus beamed onto the Enterprise. Kirk was expecting to meet David (who was still a little boy at this point) and spend the day with Carol and David as a family. But Carol had only beamed on board to tell Kirk that she felt it would not be in David's best interest to meet his father at that time.

There are so many other examples of Goodman's brilliant writing throughout the book. He shows again and again his deep understanding of the characters and passion for the show. He really did his homework and obviously put a lot of care into writing this book. This tome intertwines stories from Shatner's portrayal of Kirk in a way that connects all the independent episodes into a single narrative. The contributions from Mr. Spock and Doctor McCoy are nice touches. They bookend the story beautifully. Altogether, this book should be read by *every* fan of Star Trek!

18. Midwinter Blood by Marcus Sedgwick

This story follows two souls as they reincarnate across multiple lifetimes. Sometimes they meet up and sometimes they are connected through the “six degrees of separation” concept. Other souls also pop up from time to time across this journey. They seem to be strangers to each other at first, but as we learn more about their journey, we see their connections.

Sedgwick also did his homework on Nordic mythology and culture, integrating many of these concepts found therein into his narrative. This story is set on an isolated island in the far north. Baldur’s Bane is mentioned by name. The word viking is correctly used in reference to the activity, rather than indicating the people, as in the Nordic cultures. At one point, the island is inhabited by a tribe whose chieftain is returning from a viking expedition and finds his people must withstand the onslaught of a dragur.

Exploring the journey of the protagonists, we see their connections through time. Their choice to be soulmates through several lifetimes shows us the evolution of life on this island through the centuries and how each lifetime affects those who live them. We see the meaning of the artist’s mural - perhaps better than he himself understands it.

17. The Foreshadowing by Marcus Sedgwick

Precognition is not a new concept, but this author explores it well.

Ever since Sasha was little, she somehow knew what would soon happen to the people around her. Now a teenager at the start of WWI, Sasha must figure out exactly how her powers work - and to what extent she is able to control or change the outcome they predict.

Sasha watches as the brother Edgar goes off to join the cause, believing (as many did) that the war was inevitable and that fighting was his duty. Thomas joined the medical college, preferring to save lives because he believes that he can do more good that way. Whether as a soldier or as a doctor, each brother pursues the goal he sees as most noble.

As for Sasha, she chooses to become a volunteer nurse in a local hospital. When her father’s support for this endeavor is withdrawn, she does what she feels she must. She has just forseen Thomas’s death and is convinced that she must reach the front lines in order to prevent it.

Marcus Sedgwick cleverly folds into his narrative the story of Cassandra from Troy. She foresaw the meaning of the huge wooden horse left by the Greeks outside the city gates, but nobody believed her. They all thought she was mad. Many of the characters Sasha encounters treat her in much the same way (but this is minor compared to how Jack is treated).

Sedgwick uses WWI as the framework for this story, but it never overpowers the telling of Sasha’s journey. That’s no small feat when using something so big, but Sedgwick manages it without losing the impact of either the huge events or the more personal ones.

16. The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman

Neil Gaiman is a writer who never takes you where expect, or where you’ve been before, but he always gives his readers an interesting journey. His imagination goes places no other can.

The narrator returns to his childhood home because he must attend a funeral. While there, he pays multiple visits to the family who lived down the lane. They take him on a wild journey through his own childhood, helping him re-connect to the magic he had forgotten. They show him the small pond that contains a huge ocean, he helps them battle the inter-dimentional “fleas” whose origins are explained only as “the old country” (though it’s never named), and so much more.

Through all these fantastical adventures, Gaiman never stretches believability to - or even near - the point of breaking. That is his real magic. He keeps his characters real and his stories entertaining while never once breaking the rules of his world’s own internal logic.

15. Midwinter Tail by Sophie Kelly

Well, kids, this time we learn about the use of exposition. Basically, exposition is where characters explain things like their back stories (their pasts before the book began), their motives, the way their histories intertwine, etc.

Exposition exsists for a reason: to explain what the reader will need to understand in order to follow the story in its entirety. In other words, the characters might believe that they exist beyond the page - before page one - but this is not so in the mind of the reader. Using exposition helps the reader catch up on the lives of the characters. Using it well help the writer focus on the pertinent plot points rather than having to tell of every moment of a character's existance. This focus helps the action of the story keep moving along a good pace, keeping the reader interested and giving incentive to finish reading the story.

Good writers know how to incorporate exposition into the narrative and keep the plot moving. Other writers have trouble with this concept. This author in particular is overly fond of exposition. She keeps interrupting the plot to explain the backstory. These frequent, long-winded tangents derail the narrative and distract the reader no end. The effect of these interruptions is like watching a television show with commercial breaks that are so frequent and so long that the viewer forgets what show is on and eventually changes the channel. Or it could easily be likened to a live play where the actors are only allowed to say one or two lines before the lights on stage dim and out comes a narrator to stand at front stage center in a spotlight explaining the innermost thoughts and motivations of the characters. Skillful playwrights work harder than this and give the audience a play whose characters reveal their motives themselves, rather than relying on a non-entity to interrupt the action to explain things to the audience. Competant writers know that most audiences can figure out what's explained by the characters without needed such information further simplified at the cost of the story being told.

Someday, this particular writer may develop the skills needed to weave the exposition into the narrative in a fashion that is not so disjointed, but this particular book does not give the reader such a coherent experience as further improvement of Sophie Kelly's craft may eventually provide. We can only hope for better books in the future.
