Blizzard Games I want to play!

Hey!

I always think of myself as a noob gamer so lets talk about more games I could try be a noob at! I love Blizzard games not only can they make a great and fun game they also make some epic characters, stories and check out there trailers!

Overwatch

This game has been out for ages but I think its a good one and I think brings a bit some something else to a normal shooter game. I mean not only do you get to work together and fight but you get call abilities like Mei who shoots ice, Ana who puts people to sleep or even Bastion who is just a giant machine gun robot! I think this adds so much to the game and makes it really fun! I mean you get really cool maps where you have to secure a point or escort a payload. The maps are in different places too like Temple of Anubis in Egypt or Route 66 in USA. Not to mention you get to level up and get cool tags or outfits!








I really want to give this more of a go and see if I can whip some ass!





Guild Wars 2

I have talked about this before on my blog but I really want to get into this game more especially with the new stories they add. I mean it can be a little annoying to play the same thing over and over again but they continue to add more stories to get cooler items and the expansion Heart of Thorns. It is also now free to play if you want to give it a go, you don't get everything but its a great way to have a look at the game. Its great with different races and classes like the massive Norns or the cool plant people Sylvari and then pick cool classes like Revenant or Mesmer!. I mean you have World vs World, where you get into a team and you have to take over the world with you colours, then PVP which is obvious Player VS Player where you are in a team of 5 and battle against other players. Then just the normal story where you do your own story of your character and then the new episodes the add. Another cool thing they added is Fractuals which help get awesome items and epic boss fights.








Always worth a second look this game!



World of Warcraft

I never thought I would say this, maybe its due to the hype of this game at the moment with the newest expansion or watching BF play the earlier expansion with friends but I kinda want to give it a go! Its similar to GW2 where you have different races like Undead or Night Elf and you get to be either the Horde or the Alliance! Then choose a class like a Druid, Monk or Paladin.
You can do cool quests, raids and dungeons plus its a great game to play with others and make new friends but also get some cool items. I always thought that it was too complicated because some people have so many skills and so much going on with there screen! But I have been watching a bit more and so many streamers have been playing the new expansion Legion, there is one thing that Blizzard know how to do besides make great games is to make awesome Trailers I would really look at some of these cause dam!



I need more games to play I know once I get a laptop or set up I will be able to play more and find more exciting games!

Hope your doing great and have a great day!
Peace : )

First in a Series books!

Hey!

So I have been trying to branch out and read more different and new series, the great thing about some of the authors I have been looking into have been from some really great Indie Authors!

Here is a small insight into what I have been reading and maybe some of these might be a bit interesting, if anyone has more suggestions let me know, my TBR is getting bigger and bigger! Too many books not enough time!

IGNITED by Desni Dantone

This was a series I found when I joined a Facebook group where you talk about myth books, I orignally joined for a different series but saw this was free on Amazon so I thought why not try it! I'm really glad that I did since I have been in such a mythology mood this was perfect. I went in not knowing much about it but it was great learning about what was going on with the main character Kris. There are some lovely guys and some action with great relationships, and I really love that everything gets crazy but we still have a BFF friendship shown!
It gives off a bit Jennifer L armentrout with Wendy Higgins and just epicness! I recommend if you are in the mood for some angst but badass situations I would pick this series up!

Author: Desni Dantone
Series: Ignited #1 (Still Free on Amazon)
Published: August 28th 2013 by Laine D Publishing
Genre: YA/Mythology/Paranormal
Goodreads Synopsis:

"Seventeen year old Kris Young is on the run from a throng of superhuman golden-eyed freaks hell-bent on seeing her dead, and she doesn't know why. Good thing she has her guardian angel to protect her...sort of.

Kris is aided by Nathan, the mysterious man that ends up being anything but angelic when he rescues her for the fourth time in fourteen years. Even if the handsome hero illusion is shattered by his harsh treatment of her, he knows how to fight this strange enemy and is determined to keep her safe at all costs. 

As the body count rises in their wake, Nathan introduces Kris to a world in which not everyone is human and the battle lines between good and evil are clearly drawn. Kris's piece in the puzzle is something neither is aware of and, as they uncover the truth, neither is prepared for what they find. Overcoming twists and revelations that shatter both of their lives, they discover that nothing is as it seems and nothing, least of all their hearts, are safe. 

From debut author, Desni Dantone, Ignited is the first novel in a tale of first love, mystery and adventure that will introduce you to an exciting new world as Kris discovers how she fits in it."

LADY MIDNIGHT by Cassandra Clare

This is from the amazing Cassandra Clare as she introduces us to a new set of shadowhunters and the challenges they have to face! This is one of my most highly anticipated books of 2016 especially because of how much I love the Mortal Instruments and the Infernal Devices. If you have read the Mortal Instruments then you do see the some of the characters in Lady Midnight which I liked and I did enjoy the book.

Its great to see another kick butt female character in this world so much different to the ones before her. I also love the friendship and family in this one, since this is such a larger family then the other books its nice to see and a much needed change. I'm really excited to see where this goes in the future and I hope its going to be good with just as much action!

Author: Cassandra Clare
Series: The Dark Artifices #1
Published: March 8th 2016 by Margaret K. McElderry Books
Genre: YA/Fantasy
Goodreads Synopsis:

"In a kingdom by the sea…

In a secret world where half-angel warriors are sworn to fight demons, parabatai is a sacred word.

A parabatai is your partner in battle. A parabatai is your best friend. Parabatai can be everything to each other—but they can never fall in love.

Emma Carstairs is a warrior, a Shadowhunter, and the best in her generation. She lives for battle. Shoulder to shoulder with her parabatai, Julian Blackthorn, she patrols the streets of Los Angeles, where vampires party on the Sunset Strip, and faeries—the most powerful of supernatural creatures—teeter on the edge of open war with Shadowhunters. When the bodies of humans and faeries turn up murdered in the same way Emma’s parents were when she was a child, an uneasy alliance is formed. This is Emma’s chance for revenge—and Julian’s chance to get back his brother Mark, who is being held prisoner by the faerie Courts. All Emma, Mark, and Julian have to do is solve the murders within two weeks…and before the murderer targets them.

Their search takes Emma from sea caves full of sorcery to a dark lottery where death is dispensed. And each clue she unravels uncovers more secrets. What has Julian been hiding from her all these years? Why does Shadowhunter Law forbid parabatai to fall in love? Who really killed her parents—and can she bear to know the truth?

The darkly magical world of Shadowhunters has captured the imaginations of millions of readers across the globe. Join the adventure in Lady Midnight, the long-awaited first volume of a new trilogy from Cassandra Clare. "

THE PROPHECY OF SHADOWS by Michelle Madow

This is another great author that I just stumbled across and never looked back! The author is super sweet and great too! I really liked this story I mean wouldn't want witches and greek mythology its a great combination, the other thing that is great about this series and it puts in stories from mythology that not very many people look into and it gives it a great edge.

I do like the characters as well! The friendships are so great and putting such a crazy group of teenage's that you get a bit of everything even a bit of love! I like the way the story goes and it has its twists and turns so excited to see whats next!


Author: Michelle Madow

When the Olympian Comet shoots through the sky for the first time in three thousand years, Nicole and four others -- including mysterious bad-boy Blake -- are gifted with elemental powers. But the comet has another effect -- it opens the portal to another dimension that has imprisoned the Titans for centuries.

All's fair when you're in love with War.

For seventeen-year-old Mia Ahlström, a world ruled by order is the only world she allows. A lifetime of chore charts, to-do lists and study schedules have helped earn her a spot in Redwood State University’s engineering program. And while her five-year plan includes finding her very own happily-evah-aftah, years at an all girls’ boarding school left her woefully unprepared for keg parties and co-ed extracurricular activities.

So nothing surprises her more than catching the eye of Tyr Fredriksen at her first college party. The imposing Swede is arrogantly charming, stubbornly overprotective, and runs hot-and-cold in ways that defy reason . . . until Mia learns that she’s fallen for the Norse God of War; an immortal battle deity hiding on Midgard (Earth) to protect a valuable Asgardian treasure from a feral enemy. With a price on his head, Tyr brings more than a little excitement to Mia’s rigidly controlled life. Choosing Tyr may be the biggest distraction—or the greatest adventure—she’s ever had.

Perfekt Order Excerpt:
“Can I come in?” Tyr asked. His hands were still open—maybe to prove he was unarmed. Not that it mattered much—a guy who could fly and battle a creature that size wouldn’t need a weapon to debilitate me.
I gave him my finest stink eye.
“Please, baby. Let me explain.”
My eyes darted wildly between the forest and my boyfriend. There was a beast in the woods, but there was a man unaffected by gravity on the porch. One who had most definitely lied to me. I wasn’t sure which unnerved me more.
What I really wanted was to understand; understand how Tyr had done what he’d done; understand how he and Freya seemed human enough, but obviously weren’t; understand how that wolf was so powerful; understand how, if Tyr was an alien or a superhero or a mutant or whatever he was, how we could possibly have any kind of a relationship; understand why everyone but me had Henrik’s absolutely awesome lighters.
“I’m coming inside.” Tyr walked slowly, palms up, and stepped through the door. Then he walked backwards to the closet, where he hung up his crossbow and the two space guns. He shut the door gently, entered a code that I assumed locked the room, and closed the cover on the keypad.
I still hadn’t moved.
“Can I touch you?” he asked.
I nodded. Tyr slowly moved to my side. He took one of my balled fists and pulled me from the door.
“No more secrets,” he vowed. He pulled the lighter out of his back pocket and threw it off the porch. “Henrik didn’t make a special lighter. This is all me.”
He held out one hand and muttered something in Swedish I didn’t understand. Light shot from his hand and I spun around to follow its trajectory. It hit what looked like a clear screen at the edge of the woods, and traced an arc around the house in a half-dome, encasing the property in a silvery coating. Tiny spots floated gently from the dome, like thousands of luminescent snowflakes, and soon the ground around the house was covered in a glittery powder. Tyr snapped his fingers and the powder disappeared. Everything was as it had been—it was as if the whole night had never happened.
My knees buckled as the room started to spin. Tyr caught me just before I hit the ground. He swept me up in his arms and carried me to the couch.
“Okay, prinsessa. Time for the talk.”
He tucked a heavy throw around my legs and sat next to me. He kept one of his shoulders an inch from mine. I cautiously turned my head to appraise him. On the outside, nothing had changed. His eyes were the same midnight blue, his jaw the same perfect square, and the enormous arms folded calmly across his chest were the same ones I loved to curl up in.
But everything felt different. I realized I had no idea who this man actually was, where he came from, and what else he was capable of. The only thing I knew for sure was that I needed answers. Real answers, this time. No more secrets.
I drew a shaky breath and spoke the words that would change my life forever.
“Who are you?”
