Sarah E Ladd is not an inexperienced author; she’s got three trilogies under her belt so it’s not surprising that I enjoyed reading The Letter from Briarton Park.

However, it was brave of Harris to use that for Sebastian’s debut novel, and I can’t argue it because it established allContinueContinue reading “When Gods Die – C.S. Harris”
