John Scalzi is an auto-buy for me and has been since I met him at a Chicago book con. Monsters of Ohio takes listeners to Richland, Ohio, a depressed farming-town who has seen local plants close and is concerned that the last remaining one will as well. Our protagonist has returned to regroup just as a transformation begins… dun, dun, dun. A hilarious, thought-provoking cozy sci-fi/horror.
From its Alaska setting to the brothers, I am loving the Knife’s Edge Alaska romantic suspense series. Shadow of Fall by Rebecca Zanetti delivers the fourth brother’s romance and a terrifying mystery as we gain hints about the next book in the series. I devoured this from start to finish.
Three Days Gone by Charly Cox has Detective Alyssa Wyatt of the Albuquerque PD, and her partner, Cord Roberts, joining FBI Special Agent Ryker Newlin in Montana to search for two missing sisters. This was an addictive tale with plenty of twists and I quickly devoured it.
Godswar by Chris Tulbane continues The Many Travails of John Smith. I was excited for a new book and delighted that Tantor Audio picked up the newest novel on audio with Joel Richards continuing the narration. He has become the voice of John and his motley crew of friends, allies, and enemies. What follows is another addictive tale with battles, humor, and bundles of joy!
I love books/series set in Alaska. When you toss in brothers, I am all in. Such is the case with the Knife’s Edge, Alaska series. Each book shares one of the four Osprey brothers’ stories. The brothers have returned from military service with shadows in their eyes and secrets in their hearts. Suspense, small-town antics, and swoon-worthy romances make these a must for fans of romantic suspense.
