❋   ❋  ❋   ❋ I received an ARC from Reedsy Discover in exchange for an honest review. London: November 1905. England and the world are changing. Into the rooms of Sherlock Holmes come Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison-with new inventions that will alter the course of human history-only both inventions have gone missing. Can Holmes, Watson, and Irene Adler somehow unravel the latest diabolical scheme of Marie Chartier-evil daughter of the late Professor Moriarty? Can world peace be achieved by the most powerful weapon ever created? Can death itself be overcome by a scientific genius? And can Sherlock Holmes survive the greatest personal loss of his career? Sherlock Holmes and The Adventure of the Ghost Machine ( Sherlock and Irene #3) by David MacGregor released by MX Publishing is a great Sherlock Holmes pastiche. Sherlock Holmes and John Watson are a couple of my all time favorite characters in literature, so as soon as I saw that this short novel was available via Reedsy Discovery I

Happy Monday everyone!  This week I'm sharing a couple of songs from Roy Smeck , the brilliant ukulele player.  His skills on the ukulele make him a clear inspiration on the guitar legend Eddie Van Halen.  This guy is easily one of the best and coolest ukulele players I've ever seen.  I have no idea why he isn't more well known now than he currently is.  Give his work a list

❋   ❋  ❋ I received an ARC from Reedsy Discovery in exchange for an honest review. Dragons in the Clouds is an epic adventure that takes place in the land of Albian during a time when Dragons were alive and freely roamed the land. The people during this time were being devoured by a particularly vicious species of dragon. To protect his people, the ruling King finally orders the total annihilation of all living dragons. A powerful wizard, named Merlinius does not agree with the King's order. For he knows all Dragons are not what they seem. Merlinius performs the spell of weightlessness and tells the dragons to fly up and to hide in the cover of the clouds. An unforeseen ability of the dragon's spell is that a Dragon's fire now looks like lightning and their roar is like that of thunder. Merlinius' apprentice who has grandeur ideas of his own. He has a plan for evil dragons that he has hidden deep within a mountain cavern. Now enters a young boy, who has befriended a ve
