Flash Gold
on Jan. 25, 2012
Great book, although too short. I got hooked on Lindsay's books when I got the first Emperor's Edge and have purchased all the other books I could find by Lindsay. I like Kali and identify with her insecurities. Cedar is my new hero, tough and humorous. It's a great mix.

Hunted (The Flash Gold Chronicles, #2)
on Jan. 25, 2012
Great follow-up to Flash Gold. I really like the way Lindsay explains the inventions or gadgets so that even though I'm not a mechanically inclined person, I can understand what is going on. I really hate feeling like a dummy and don't have to skip technical jargon just to get through the passage. I love the interactions between Kali and Cedar.

Excellent! Great prequel to The Emperor's Edge. Truly loved Tikaya and Rias. I really like reading books where different personalities can complement, fulfill and admire each other. Very well written. I literally could not put it down. I also enjoyed how it introduced Sicarias and his knife. Great romance, adventure and believable characters, warts and all.

The Goblin Brothers Adventures Vol. 1

Great stories, very humorous and entertaining. I am 56 and still enjoyed these stories with happy endings. Lindsay always tells a good tale.

Wonderful. I always enjoy Lindsay's books and this was not exception.

Peacemaker (The Flash Gold Chronicles, #3)
on March 06, 2012
Another great story. Love all Lindsay's books, but especially this series. Really looking forward to the next installment. Hopefully it will be as long as this one, but a full length novel would be really great!

Conspiracy (The Emperor's Edge Book 4)
on April 29, 2012
Another great book. I can't wait for number 5. Sicarias and Amaranthe are getting closer to a romantic episode with each new book. It's very hard to wait. I nearly screamed at the ending, but won't ruin it for other readers. Great job!

Another winner! I think Emma Holly is a truly gifted writer.

Date Night

Emma Holly is beyond question my favorite author. I automatically buy anything I find available with her name on it. This short story was worth the money paid for it, however, I don't really think this was up to her usual standards. In my humble opinion, it was more like a chapter edited out of Hidden Depths instead of a follow up short story.

Blood and Betrayal (The Emperor's Edge Book 5)
on Sep. 06, 2012
EXCELLENT! I really don't have words to express how much I enjoy all of Lindsay Buroker's books, not just the Emperors Edge series, but all her books. I've read all that I could find and thoroughly enjoyed each and every one. Thank you Lindsay.

Enigma
on Nov. 28, 2012
I loved Enigma and can't wait for further books in the series and any other books Lindsay Buroker writes. I love the style, the humor, all the characters with all their strengths and faults, in all of her books. I read everything I can find by Lindsay.

Winter's Tale
on Feb. 02, 2013
Oh yeah, another great one from Emma Holly. Really hot fairy tale. Couldn't quit reading so read it in one sitting. I really hate that sometimes, because you just don't want to see the end of the book so quickly. And again the only problem is it was way too short.
