Review - A Little Familiar by R. Cooper
My rating:
Piotr is a powerful witch. Perhaps the most powerful one in the region, but he stays apart from his coven. He prepares food for all the major events like Samhain but doesn’t attend them. Instead, he stays home alone with no company aside from his dead grandmother’s crow familiar and the ghost of his great-grandmother. Bartleby is a very rare human familiar. He doesn’t have much power on his own, but the witch he bonds to will become much more powerful.

Review - The Pillar by Kim Fielding
My rating:
Faris is the village herbalist. He dispenses the teas, tinctures and salves he makes to help cure the various ills of everyone in the town. Faris was taught by the previous healer who has since passed away. Among his most distasteful duty is tending to those punished in the town square, where criminals and misbehaving slaves are tied to a stone pillar, lashed mercilessly, and left to die. Some are beyond saving and the most Faris can do is help ease their way.

Review - The Rules by Gale Stanley
My rating:
Wil is an experienced Dom looking for that one special submissive that he can call his own. He’s tired of doing scenes with subs that he doesn’t connect with. It’s hard since the city’s ultra conservative police chief has shut down all the clubs. The only places still open are invite-only, super-secret places that move around. What Wil doesn’t know is that the remaining clubs are run by the corrupt police chief, and they make up for a chronic shortage of subs by entrapping homeless young men and forcing them to choose between jail or providing sexual services.
