I am a huge fan of the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs, so when I heard she was starting another series I was ecstatic. Cry Wolf begins the new Alpha and Omega series, which centers around Charles and Anna. Taking place right after their story, Alpha and Omega, in […]
Fangs, Fur, & Fey has an interview with Chris Howard, author of Seaborn. Also, MTV posted the first official trailer for the sixth Harry Potter movie, which comes out in November. Here’s the imdb entry. So what do you guys think of Harry Potter and the Halfblood Prince?

I couldn’t wait for it so I made a trip to Barnes and Noble yesterday just so I could get my hands on a copy of Jenna Black’s new Morgan Kingsley novel, The Devil You Know. I’m going through a whole demon lovin’ period at the moment and the fact […]
