The Review

Anyone who loved TJ Nichols’ Mytho series would adore this book. Various pairings and relationships have been depicted in extracts from the novels with beautiful black and white illustrations. As this is a PDF they could presumably be downloaded and colored. The accompanying extracts have hints on the colors to use.

The scenes have been carefully chosen and range from romantic pairings, including that of Jordan and Edra, to baby dragons, mermaids, and nymphs. Once enjoyed as a colouring book the result could then be kept to add to the pleasure of re-reading the novels.

The artist is very talented and has captured the atmosphere of the books whilst retaining a very clear style that would allow the reader/color-adder to develop their own style, and the details, while fascinating, are never so small or fussy as to detract from the clarity of the presentation. The extracts remind one of the stories in the series.

Highly recommended, for all lovers of coloring books and also just for enjoyment by anyone who loves the beings brought to life by the author.

5 stars.

The Reviewer

I’ve been doing book reviews on my website, crossposted or linked to various social media, for a few years. I read a number of genres but I really enjoy all kinds of speculative fiction so thought I’d like to share my views with you. I love sci fi and other speculative fiction because of the way it can, at its best, make us see ourselves in a new light. Quite apart from the exciting stories, of course! I used to be an English teacher, and I’m a writer (fantasy) so I can be quite critical about style etc. but I hope I can also appreciate properly some books that don’t appeal to me personally but might be simply perfect for others. I have, obviously, read widely, and continue to do so.

Summary: A Reverie of Flames is the new, spell-binding third installment of 'The Fae Souls' series. Born again into the mortal world, I'd hoped to escape the war between light and dark fae. I wasn't alone - Sorcha (my love) and Princess Saphira of the seelie (who we were sworn to protect) were with me. Rings gifted by Queen Carisse of the seelie ensured we were born in the same timeframe and we'd remain together. More than chance brought us to the city of Grayhaven. It was magic and destiny. Sorcha had returned to my life the day she saved me from an unseelie attack; that was when my memories had come flooding back. Now I found myself regaining my awareness of who I was and discovering how serendipitous fate can be at bringing you to the right place at just the right time. In the unique position of remembering our fae origins, Sorcha - now Angelica, a white witch who opposed unseelie interests in the city, and I had a lot to catch up on. As she brought me up to speed, I realised the depth of my feelings for her, and that I wanted to continue our romance into this, our next lifetime. Princess Saphira was reborn as Ayla: my sister. Now an 18 year old student and budding witch, she was a prime target for the unseelie who sought to overthrow the seelie royal family. We had to protect her, and Angelica and I would do our best to ensure she stayed safe. A Reverie of Flames is a romantic urban fantasy novella of just over 20,000 words, which contains strong steamy content and language.
