(1990-1992) This is an omnibus edition of Drake's three "Northworld" books, which retell myths from the Eddas relocated to a science-fiction multi-dimensional bubble universe. It's okay, pretty much what you expect from Drake: solid plotting, detailed battle scenes, and cool military tech. But it's also excessively male-gazey: women characters are typically described by their level of attractiveness, body weight, and bust size.

🎧 Yeah, well? I enjoyed it!! Fun fast easy read. I can see it be a tv show or movie. I enjoyed the MC‘s Daniel & Tina! I love the old timey monsters. Ezma the armorist reminded me of Q (from 007). Great palate cleanser.

102/150 Solid, old school space opera. This is two stories from the Man-Kzin Wars series, both involving the ship and crew of the Rover. I liked the action, the cat and mouse tension of the first story. The second story involved hunting for a lost Kzinti ship. The second story was ruined, for me, by the inclusion of a limp romance/infidelity by the captain.
3.75/5
When is a fantasy not a fantasy? This book is labeled a fantasy but it's not. No magic or magic users, no mystical creatures, no dragons, elves, dwarves or orcs. If it hadn't taken place in a fictional land, it could have been sold as straight up historical fiction. That said, it's still a great read, full of well rounded characters, thrilling chases, daring escapes and epic battle scenes 4 🛡🛡🛡🛡
Aliana could see tents going down, pack mules being rounded up and loaded.

So I had to be at the main library branch all day today which is normally 😝 But today it was great because I got to start weeding the adult fantasy/sci-fi collection! 😃 It was way overdue! I found SO MANY older books with ridiculously bad titles or covers, and I wanted to share this one with you because I think it wins at being the worst one I came across - the cover AND title are awful! 🤣😂 #librariansoflitsy
I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.
