Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood book Review I've only done one prior to this, and you can check out where I talk about a very cool magic system from the *Cradle* series that I'm still reading. There are like 12 books, so I'll be reading it for a while.  This time, I am talking about something else that is cool. I just finished the graphic novel of *The Handmaid's Tale*. I did not plan to do this. I had read Margaret Atwood's novel *The Handmaid's Tale* back when it was first produced—that's not true. It was first released, I think, in 1985, and I wasn't alive, but I did read it a couple of years ago. It was great; I really loved it, and I would encourage you to pick it up and read it.  But for this one, I actually read a graphic novel that I picked up at my local library. Every once in a while, when I get the hankering, I go to my local library. It kind of sucks; it doesn't have the widest selection. I was actually looking for something else. ...

Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card Book Review Welcome back to Dragon Army Books! My name is Dustin, and in preparation for the final book in Ender's Saga, *The Last Shadow*, which is coming out at the end of this year, I am reading and re-reading the entire catalog related to Ender and Bean.  The story began with *Ender's Game*, and so far, I have read and reviewed *The Formic War*—both the first and the second series associated with those—which has led up to *Ender's Game*. The key-chord novel, which I recently finished reading and reviewing, brings me to today's topic: my 5th or 6th reread of one of my favorites in the saga, *Ender's Shadow*. *Ender's Shadow* is a parallel novel to *Ender's Game*. It takes place a little before and in conjunction with the events in *Ender's Game*, but from a completely new perspective.  The story focuses on Bean, a character from *Ender's Game*, although he doesn’t really appear until late in the original nove...

The Lost Metal Book Review  Big thanks to MacMillan Publishers for sending me an advanced copy of this book—a physical hardback copy along with an audiobook version and a cool set of Bluetooth earbuds. They also sent me some cool little vials with metals in them so that when it's time for me to burn some metals and practice my metallic arts, I've got those! These two and probably three, four, five, or six others—not all 16, not all 20, including the god metals. Don’t worry, this is going to be a spoiler-free review. I’m not going to give any spoilers because I want you to experience it for yourself. Being the fourth book in the Wax and Wayne series and the conclusion of Era 2, I don’t want to get into the nitty-gritty. But I do want to give my overall feelings and thoughts about the book, and I want to do it this way: Up front, I want to give you my quick summarized opinions of my experience with The Lost Metal so that if you don’t want to stick around until the end, you can ge...

The Alchemist book review for Assignment  I just want to get straight into a review of it today. For those of you who aren't familiar with the title at all, The Alchemist is about a young Spanish boy named Santiago. He is traveling from Spain to the pyramids in Egypt because he receives visions, notices signs, and feels like there is treasure there. Everything within his heart is telling him to go and find the treasure.  The only problem is, that he's a young shepherd boy, and he has no means of getting from point A to point B, and that's where the story begins. We follow along as Santiago makes his journey, and it's much more than just a journey of location—it's one of exploration and self-discovery.  Along the way, he meets an eclectic cast of characters. He meets people like kings alchemists, and many other kinds of people. He stays with them for different lengths of time, but from every single one of them, he learns something about himself, his quest, and the ar...
