Review - The Silent Paths of Night by David R. Slayton
My rating:
Warning: This book is hard to review without discussing the ending. I’ve tried to keep the spoilers to a minimum, but you have been warned. Raef has freed the goddess Phoebe so the moon once again is in the night skies, driving the tides and carrying the dead away to the underworld. But the world is still out of balance. The Hierarch of the sun god Hyperion still seems determined to plunge the world into chaos.

Review - Animated by Kim Fielding
My rating:
Frank was a paratrooper in World War II, but he was injured in a drop shortly after the D-Day landings. The injury left him with a bad foot and the need to use a cane to get around. Although he had dreams of being an artist, Frank found work as an animator for a Hollywood film company, and he’s very good at it. He’s now the lead animator for the frog character of a cartoon version of The Frog Prince.
