  Book links: Amazon , Goodreads ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Never passing up the opportunity to speak about himself in the third person, M.D. Presley is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is. Born and raised in Texas, he spent several years on the East Coast and now waits for the West Coast to shake him loose. His favorite words include defenestrate, callipygian, and Algonquin. The fact that monosyllabic is such a long word keeps him up at night. Publisher: M.D. Presley (April 6, 2022) Page count : 376 Formats: ebook, paperback Sol's Harvest series by M.D. Presley is one of my favorite self-published works ever.

Blood Over Bright Haven by M. L. Wang review Book links: Amazon , Goodreads ABOUT THE AUTHOR:  M. L. Wang is a weird recluse, probably in a small room somewhere, planting tomatoes and talking to them.  She enjoys gruesome nature documentaries and long walks in circles around her room. Her books include Blood Over Bright Haven, The Sword of Kaigen, the Theonite Series (discontinued), and The Volta Academy Chronicles (published under Maya Lin Wang). Publisher: M.L. Wang (July 25, 2023) Page count: 527 pages (Kindle) Formats: ebook Dark, disturbing, and utterly addictive, Blood Over Bright Haven is an absolute must-read. I’m not well-versed in the dark academia subgenre, but you can’t go wrong with this page-turner. It delves into topics of imperialism, racism, elitism, and supremacy, but it’s a damn good book above all.  The City of Tiran is impressive. Enclosed within a magical Barrier, it offers its citizens comfort and industrialization made possible by magic. Refug...
