Novellas are good for that, I agree. I admit, I don't always jump at the chance to sample an author that way though--depends on the price of the novella.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-78658506911493611172015-05-04T15:25:45.329-07:002015-05-04T15:25:45.329-07:00Athira - I am a sucker for books about magic.

I don't read a lot of UF, but when I like it I read it (example: Patricia Briggs). I'm not into zombies and vampires, so if you come across PN or UF that are different, please keep sharing :) Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-16743778031353891072015-04-23T04:03:22.650-07:002015-04-23T04:03:22.650-07:00The only book I've read in which a gargoyle pl...The only book I've read in which a gargoyle played a large role is The Accidental Alchemist, but the gargoyle "made" the book. This one sounds like fun, too, even though I prefer full-length novels to novellas. Maybe the author will take note of your hope for a longer adventure! jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-54646770010318822562015-04-23T00:49:33.950-07:002015-04-23T00:49:33.950-07:00Away to add this to my wish list.
