In concept, this novel struck me as an inverse to Dark Eden by Chris Beckett (one of my favorite novels of all time. While “The 100” isn’t necessarily dystopic, I would tentatively put it in the same category as the aforementioned books. ![]() We’ve all read (and maybe even seen) Divergence and Hunger Games and the 100s (pun unintended) of other novels about a dystopic reality. While I’m not entirely sure “The 100” will leave the readers satisfied in the same way that a stand-alone novel would, they will definitely want to continue to read into this fascinating world.Īt this point of time in the literary world, dystopian fiction is a hard sell. While I dislike posting about serialized novels, sometimes it’s nice to see if books such as this can stand alone. Go figure, right?įorewarning: this novel is the first in the series. ![]() All the while puncturing a cyst I got from Salsa Dancing. ![]() It took me forever to find a book worth posting about, but I have to say “The 100” by Kass Morgan isn’t too shabby! Strangely enough, my podiatrist recommended it to me after confiding in me that he watched the CW show based on the novels. We’re back into science fiction and I have to say, Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s novel is a tough one to follow. ![]()

I used many of the DWWP activities while teaching various comics courses, and Trish was a literal textbook example of how you can create an interesting character using a few random traits and some index cards. It's just funny, because I had first encountered Trish as part of Jessica Abel and Matt Madden's fantastic Drawing Words and Writing Pictures textbook. That isn't some hipster cool-guy bullshit. I was familiar with Trish Trash long before volume one of this series hit the stands. ![]() 5/11/2023 0 Comments The ritual shantel![]() Things to know about The Ritual It is MF TW (Please see the author's note on the inside) J/P (jealous/possessive) Hero OTT (over the top) Hero This is a 150K word standalone romance that contains dark themes that may be triggering to some.
