Visions of Zarua #giveaway and #review update

Posted on January 16, 2016 by Suzanne Rogerson Author

Last week I had my first delivery of merchandise. It’s so strange to hold a bundle of my very own books. I love ebooks, but there’s nothing quite as special as seeing it in print.

3 of these books are destined for the Goodreads Giveaway which is running until 14th February, and the other 2 are for giveaways I am planning in the future.

Review update – Visions of Zarua is currently rated 4.5 stars on Amazon uk thanks to 2 5 star and 2 4 star reviews.

‘The perfect amount of epicness…’

‘A gripping, well written story…’

‘A brilliant read…’

Another reviewer ‘really enjoyed this book.’

It’s so lovely to see that people have enjoyed something I created. And these reviews are important in helping other readers decide if they are willing to take a chance on a debut author. So if you have read Visions, would you consider leaving a review? I’d love to know what you think.

Book Review of Ink and Bone – Volume 1 of The Great Library

WP_20151228_18_14_42_Pro

I picked up this YA fantasy novel purely on the strength of one review from fantasyreads.

I’m so glad I did, though I have to admit to several late nights where I just couldn’t bear to stop reading. This was one of those books that helped me rediscover the joy of reading and allowed me to become completely immersed in another world. Not just for the fact that I loved the premise of a society focused on protecting books, but the story and the characters had me hooked right from the beginning.

It is a very fast paced, entertaining read and I loved the alternative history that was so cleverly portrayed, with plenty of magic and intrigue thrown in. The characters have such depth, especially scholar Wolfe, and there are so many details that add to the world, like the sometimes murderous Automatons and the Burners with their Greek Fire. There are many aspects to this story that I can’t wait to explore more, so many possibilities…

Even as I write this review, I could quite happily read the whole book again.

I give Ink and Bone 5 stars and have no hesitation recommending it to anyone who enjoys fantasy.

The worse thing by far in discovering a new series is to know that the next book is not available until July 2016!

Book review – Trisha Ashley’s Creature Comforts.

Posted on September 12, 2015 by Suzanne Rogerson Author

I rate this book 4 out of 5. I recently won a free copy of Creature Comforts by Trisha Ashley in a twitter competition and I’m really happy that I did.

The premise of the book draws you in and the story keeps you turning the pages. I enjoyed every aspect of it, but especially the dogs at Debo’s Desperate Dog Refuge. The characters were fun to be with and I was sad when the book came to an end. I recommend this book, but beware you won’t want to put it down.
