REVIEW REQUESTS ON HOLD

NOTICE RE: REVIEW REQUESTING

Due to the monumental backlog of review requests, I simply must place a hiatus on accepting review requests, indefinitely. Beginning April 30, I will not be accepting any requests for reviews.

4. This does not apply to review requests to which I’ve already agreed, nor to blog tour reviews to which I’ve already committed.






Mallory Heart Reviews welcomes all review requests but reserves the right of refusal of any requests. We also reserve the right of timetable: we are severely backlogged but agree to review any accepted requests in as timely a manner as possible. Please understand that there is currently a waiting list on reviews, but we are accomplishing these as quickly as is reasonable.

THE CONDUIT by Stacey Rourke_Review

The ConduitThe Conduit by Stacey Rourke

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


What an utterly delightful, fascinating, fast-paced, engrossing YA fantasy. It captured me from the first page-and I am not in general a devotee of fantasy-but this book is so well and smoothly written, so full of immediate suspension of disbelief, engaging characters, vivid settings-and some really villainous villains-that I could not help but delight in the story and race through it faster than I could have expected.

Although the protagonists are fifteen, eighteen, and twenty, and the book is no doubt targeted at a YA audience, if you’re an older reader, don’t let that stop you. This story is worth reading, because of the quality of the writing, the sympathetic characterizations, the plot line, and as I said above-the suspension of disbelief is immediate. Action-filled, romantic, emotional, dramatic-all one could ask for! Get this one now!
