I will start with Winters Curse by Felicia Beasley and Amanda Pillar. If all of the stories are as amazing as this one this will be the best anthology ever released. Verity and Gabe are by far the most interesting pair I have ever read about. They are utterly hilarious in their sarcasm and mess ups. A necromancer who hates being one and a stealer who thinks he is a regular human. The story line could not be better and I cannot wait to read more of this series! The attack of the zombie was by far the most hilarious zombie scene I have ever read or seen all while being epic. Oh and lord almighty book made from human skin (its less gross and more amusing than you imagine I promise) is quite the character. Why is it I can imagine him being the mentor thats brilliant one moment or so annoying you would rather go it alone the next. Add all that sass and sarcasm together and death has never been so funny. The next installment for this story better come soon!

A touch of death by N.R.Larry and Margo Bond Collins is next. I was intrigued the whole time. I know a bit about using Reiki in the real world but adding it to a magical world was a stroke of genius. Emerson and Riot are an unlikely pair considering she prefers to be alone and the embrace of death and he is rash and full of fire. I feel like they balance and compliment each other well despite that. Their friendship is one of those things thats unexpected but works. Emerson is a whole different ballpark than the normal girls you read about in fantasy these days. Usually there are two options victim or butt kicking but somehow she manages to carve her own little niche making this unlike anything else you will read. I cannot wait to get more of this series!
