Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon...
Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon-transcending Magimal Weiqi Wang
This is the first book of a teen fantasy book series that nurtures the bloom of MAGIC in the soil of SCIENCE - something rarely attempted. The transition from magic to science will be bit by bit, so the early books do read like a "mainstream" magic fantasy.
Soarame has a pair of special eyes. He can see magic elements in this world, which are supposed to be invisible. This enviable gift of his could reveal the truth of the world, but it also puts him in danger.
Many animals in this world possess magic power, so they are called “magimals” - dragons as examples. Soarame fortunately got a baby magimal as his best friend, but they got into troubles together - troubles that were a lot bigger than dragons.
Could they survive?

Don't be fooled by the beautiful cover, this is a story about an over-the-hill hedge-trimmin' ninja with a heavy metal listening grandma. The characterizations are well-done and the book is an engaging, light read.
Overweight fish finger addicted ninja gardeners? Samurai ghosts? What's not to love! If you're a keen Robert Rankin fan, I'd recommend giving this book a read.

Anti Life
Anti Life Allen Kuzara
The opposite of life isn't death; it's something far worse.
In an anarcho-capitalist future, space-based corporate settlements have replaced the State. Colonel John Alvarez, a fifteen-year veteran, is unwilling to waste more years leading missions into deep space. He wants to start over and make a new life with his wife and son.
But when a distress message from a distant research probe is received, Novos Corp reactivates Alvarez's contract. He must carry out one last mission, a rescue attempt. Unknown to Alvarez, however, is the hidden threat that awaits him, one that—if he cannot stop it—will doom humanity to a fate worse than death.

Great descriptions and an unexpected ending.
Sounds so good! Can’t wait to read this one!
I love this theme!!! What could be better than a space-based anarcho-capitalist future! Giddy up!

Happily Every After: The Nonsensical Story of How Llamas Were Made Jack A. Warren
A princess, an alcoholic vampire, and a honey badger walked into a bar… Actually, it was more of walking out of a bar. Let’s start from the beginning.
Once upon a time, there was a knight in not so shining armor who harmed more damsels than he saved, a kidnapped princess being held for ransom, a depressed unicorn searching for love, an alcoholic vampire with just a slight drinking problem, and a honey badger who was a bit of a party animal living in a world of fantasy. They must come together to battle vegan goblins, thwart the plans of trolls (that only speak Deutsch), listen to a group of passive-aggressive gnomes, and save a group of really baked tree elves in order to bring the princess home.

Go big or go home. For privateer Captain Magdalene Landon, it's all about going big. For Kay Ellis, it's about getting home. Together, they're about to architect the most daring heist in the galaxy.

This is one great space series. I read all four of the books in a matter of one weekend. Hope more is to come...
