About this author

S. A. Bolich is a fulltime freelancer with a number of published fantasy stories as well as many nonfiction articles in print and on the web, covering a wide variety of subjects from horsemanship to travel (usually with an historical slant) to the state of Flash web design. A native of Washington state, she resides there again after serving six years in Germany as a regular army military intelligence officer. She graduated summa cum laude from college with a degree in history, which she confesses was greatly aided by devouring historical fiction of every era and kind through her formative years.

Since then she has taught web design, trained horses, spent a few hectic and thoroughly enjoyable years volunteering with the United States Pony Cl

Heh, heh, heh. It has been a good day. Not only is it a gorgeous Indian summer day in my neck of the woods, tinted with gold and crowned with blue, but it has been productive as well. At long, long last I have all the threads of Seaborn in my hands.

This is a bigger victory than you know. This year has been a struggle on the writing front because of the concentration factor caused by my back. I'... Read more of this blog post »

Bag of Bones by Stephen King
Bag of Bones
by Stephen King
read in April, 2013
Stephen King is one of my favorite authors, and this is not a bad offering from him. I confess to stalling out in the first 50 pages the first time I tried to read it a couple of years ago. I must have been in the right mood this time, because I flew...more
Lincoln's Dreams by Connie Willis
" I have a few issues with this book. I enjoyed it but it is probably my least favorite Willis.
Things she did right:
The historical research, as always, was top notch. The Civil War scenes felt real and immediate and personal. Of all of the characte... " Read more of this review »
Firedancer by S.A. Bolich
" Ordinarily, I'm not a big fan of "high" fantasy, but this book ignores all the standard tropes and tackles meaningful issues in a way that makes the supernatural seem quite, well, natural. A thoroughly enjoyable read from start to finish. My hat's... " Read more of this review »
Who Mourns for the Hangman? by S.A. Bolich
" If you want a lunchtime read with a little bit of a creep factor and a strong sense of place and time, you could do much worse than "Who Mourns for the Hangman?" I did not expect to be thinking about it for hours afterward, but it really raised so... " Read more of this review »

Magic, Mensa & Mayhem (Dragon Eye, PI #2)
by Karina Lumbert Fabian (Goodreads Author)
read in December, 2012
I like Vern. I really do. Fabian has found a new twist on dragons, making hers a PI who is not the all-powerful mage of folklore, mostly because St. George got to him first. Our hero is slowly recovering his powers in good service to the Faerie versi...more

Blackout by Connie Willis
Blackout
by Connie Willis
read in July, 2012
As a student of World War II, I really hoped for good things from this book. Alas, it only got interesting about 60 or 70 pages from the end. Everything before that seemed to be the author showing off her research into the early part of the war. We s...more

Bury Him Among Kings by Elleston Trevor
I have always liked this book. It resides on my shelves to this day, probably 30 years after I first read it. I haul it out every so often and savor it for the quality of the writing and the excellent evocation of the era. WWI is, unfortunately, the...more
