About this author

edit data

I've always been a compulsive reader, but I came to writing the long way 'round. For some reason I thought only a demi-gods could write a novels. (So many words!) It took me a while to figure out I could do it, too. To misquote Hyperbole and a Half, "I Write All the Words!" Now I'm fighting tooth and nail to find time enough to write all the books inside me.

I live in Los Angeles. My favorite authors include Lois McMaster Bujold, Judith Ivory and Patrick O'Brian.

Evie Byrne added Swordspoint (Riverside, #1) by Ellen Kushner	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
This is one of my favorite, repeat reads. I adore Alec and Richard--they're mad, bad and dangerous to know. However, I wanted to post a warning about the audiobook, which I just returned to Audible. If you're considering buying it, you probably alrea...more

I don't think I'm going to finish this book. This series came to me as a recommendation, so I know other people like it. But for me, it's not working. The main premise, about the Hunt Lords and their bonded Hunt Brothers, is really interesting, but...more

I'm very happy with this series so far. I loved the Farseer trilogy, but couldn't get into the one about the ships--barely finished the first book of it. So I'm really happy to have found another Hobb series to love. It's sometimes a little slow, but...more

I'm a little worried about this series. I really admire what she's trying to do--i.e. not dish up the same old young male fantasy hero that we all know so well. She's not afraid to make her characters suffer and fail and be unlikeable. As an author,...more

] She pulled it out of the fire. Sort of. This one wasn't as bad as #2. I don't know what to say, because I'm a sucker for her writing. Because when she's good, she's really, really good. Her settings and characters are wonderfully rich--I love to dive...more

I really liked the first two books in this series, but this one was not as good as the others--it was as if the series literally ran out of steam. Or perhaps it really should have been a much shorter book, but had to be a doorstopper like its sibling...more

Evie Byrne added At Last Comes Love by Mary Balogh	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
This was a very sensible book, and I respect that, especially after reading too much emo romance. The hero and heroine were mature, sensible people. The (somewhat melodramatic) conflict is cleared up sensibly with a minimum of fuss. If that makes the...more

Once I got over mourning the fact that the hero from Book 1 would not be the subject of Book 2, I settled in and really enjoyed this story. The protagonist is a minor character from the first book, but one given enough attention in that book that you...more
