Jemir Johnson is a hardened thief. Well, not really. But whenever there’s a free moment to steal he does so to read the fantasy, drama, humor and crime fiction of other talents and create some of his own.

Jemir and 2 other people liked Ian's review of Doc Sidhe:
Doc Sidhe by Aaron Allston
"One of my biggest complaints about the fantasy genre is the lack of thinking-outside-the-box. Dwarves live underground and mine for gold. Elves are reedy forest-dwellers. Technological innovation is unheard of except as quaint affectations.

Jemir and 3 other people liked Kate's review of Doc Sidhe:
Doc Sidhe by Aaron Allston
"Okay, it might not be the best-written book I've ever read, but it was a hell of a lot of fun, and exactly what I wanted/needed to read at the moment!

Your fairly standard "two twinned worlds" story, with a twist - one world belongs to the fair folk, " Read more of this review »

“The one thing every creator wants to do, without question, is leave a mark.”
Jemir Robert Johnson

“If the real world were a book, it would never find a publisher. Overlong, detailed to the point of distraction-and ultimately, without a major resolution.”
Jasper Fforde, Something Rotten

“If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.”
Toni Morrison
