Book Review: The Curse of the Wendigo by Rick Yancey

Posted on June 29, 2013 Leave a Comment

The Curse of the Wendigo byRick Yancey I loved Rick Yancy’s The Monstrumologist so much (my review here) that I quickly picked up this one, the second book of the series. Now that I’ve finished it, I’d probably hesitate to say that it was as strong as its predecessor, but nevertheless I wasn’t disappointed. This […]

Turn Coat by Jim Butcher I seem to have developed a habit of reading the first book in a series then skipping a whole bunch to read from the series again. It worked well for me with Star Wars: A New Jedi Order and I can’t complain about my recent run with The Dresden Files. […]

I just stumbled on this in my daily Goodreads update review. The title made me smile (and sing) and the blurb made me curious. To-read pile updated!
