review 1: I picked up these books after finishing another of Lindsay Buroker's series' "The Emperor's Edge". I love Buroker's writing style, and found this book refreshing. 'Flash Gold' is the first book in a series of novellas. So far there are 4 and I'm waiting as patiently as possible f...

review 1: Yeeeessssssss. These books are awesome and delightful. They make me laugh out loud. A lot. I feel like the characters grow and develop from book to book, and I like seeing the tiny changes carried through the stories until they become larger changes of character and intention.On ...

review 1: Lindsay Buroker is an expert in writing charming heroes and heroines, witty and funny dialogue and break-neck adventure. Balanced on the Blade's Edge is a perfect example. The world building and character depth here is much lighter compared to The Emperor's Edge series but it has...

review 1: Dnf at 65%.I tried, I really tried here but I just didn’t manage to find any interest whatsoever in this short story. The whole thing simply feels meh. Little happens and the interaction between the characters is just boring. I have to say that this series seriously lacks the fu...

review 1: What can I possibly say about this book? I have LOVED reading The Emperor's Edge series, and I am devastated that it's over... or at least Lindsay Buroker wants us to THINK it's over. This book was written from the POV of 6 different characters. Amaranthe, Sicarius, Tikaya, Mahli...

review 1: I was pleasantly surprised in this book because it started to really focus on one of the minor main characters. But was a little disappointed at the end because ultimately even though Maldonovo was given so much page time, I didn't even learn that much about him than I could foun...

review 1: This book had me gripped right from the beginning. And feeling so many different things throughout it. I still love all the interaction between the team, but especially Sicarius and Amaranthe. I finished it in less than a day, even though I kept telling myself I would only read o...

review 1: I don’t usually enjoy reading short stories as I tend to find them unsatisfying and badly developed. This was not the case here and although I didn’t like Ice Cracker II as much as I did the rest of the Emperor’s Edge series, it was still an entertaining read. The two stories fea...

review 1: This is a good book, but it is a little odd. I think that it qualifies as Steampunk, but the somewhat odd steam based technology seems to have nothing to do with the plot. The plot is a little simplistic. The protagonist is awfully lucky, and in fact, it seems that her luck dr...

review 1: Actual rating: 2½A very short story preceding events in the Emperor’s Edge series.. This is a very simple story featuring Sicarius back in is “assassin days” and Sespian as a child. It was nice enough but overall didn’t add much to the series. As the story is so short, the charac...

review 1: So stinkin' glad there is one more!! I'd hate to leave these friends behind :/. This series is one that I have wholeheartedly enjoyed over my last (oh, the sorrow!!) days of summer. The characters are well developed and multifaceted, the plot is pretty dang solid, and the vocab...

review 1: I generally try to read everything chronologically, but this time I'm reading a liiiiittle out of order since I read Republic before this set of novellas and I was saving these for a terrible health week. (Hello, terrible health week.) So, I'll confess I was already intrigued b...

review 1: I happily read more or less everything that Lindsay Buroker writes, because it's consistently good. This is no exception. In a short compass, she manages to include several layers of relationship complication, a conflict of loyalties, and a clever heist. I do enjoy a good heist. ...
