Book Nook: Ten Best Books I Read in 2015
Book Frivolity 10 Fantastic Fantasy Releases for
September 2015 [Starred Review] "From the
first moment, this collection of fantastical tales sizzles with
dark promise, rich world-building, and complex, often haunting
characters. In 'Rakshashi, ' Amrita has long since completed her
penance for the crimes she committed as a mortal, and is willing to
take any avenue to capture her reward. Tanya is a woman with a
gaslighting husband and a complicated history in 'A Haunted House
of Her Own.' 'Dead Flowers by a Roadside' features a grieving man
who can speak to ghosts--all but the ones he most longs to hear
from. 'Harbinger' introduces a group of spirits who have a message
but no voice. Each story feels innovative and exciting, and they
work together to create a harmonious whole from glittering
supernatural fragments. The stories are set at various times and
places but all feel as though they spring from the same dark,
dangerous, and fantastical world. This excellent anthology will
thrill Armstrong fans and new readers alike."

of the supernatural world with that of horror and you might just
find yourself looking over your shoulder or wondering about the
things that go bump in the night."
--Penny Dreadful Book Reviews "[T]his collection shows
just how versatile Armstrong is as a writer. She does supernatural
just as expertly as she does thrillers and suspense. This is a must
for her fans, and new readers alike."
--My Bookish Ways "Armstrong's writing pulls you in and
keeps your interest. All the stories were well thought out and
imaginative, and the conclusions to some will definitely not be
what you expected!"
--Readers in Wonderland "Overall, this would be a terrific
introduction to Armstrong, but it is absolutely essential to
someone who wants to have everything related to a particular
series."
--The Qwillery
