Robyn Bee<\/a>‘s Tomb Divers<\/a> novel is, rather surprisingly, quite good for the most part. Both our protagonist and his love interests have engaging personalities and the setting is pleasantly unusual, going for an Egyptian theme rather than generic fantasy. It’s the harem elements which end up the main problem, as they both appear quite suddenly and develop at a blistering pace.

The eighth<\/a> of Stuart Grosse<\/a>‘s Reborn as the First Boss<\/a> novellas is very strange. The protagonist has spent nearly all of the previous seven books hiding her heritage and yet here she just instantly reveals it to the first person of authority she comes across.
