Taste of the Night by Vicki Pettersson

16 January 2008 Jackie 1

Like I said I would, I gave the second novel in Vicki Pettersson’s Signs of the Zodiac series a try. Taste of the Night was definitely better than the first one, but still kind of strange. There was one point where confusion set in. There’s such conflict regarding the Light […]

Scent of Shadows by Vicki Pettersson

13 January 2008 Jackie 3

I have to admit, I attempted to read Scent of Shadows by Vicki Pettersson a couple of weeks ago, but I had to put it down when I heard the main characters referred to as “superheroes”. I will admit, I initially went into this novel expecting vampires or werewolves or […]

Serials

11 January 2008 Jackie 1

I thought I would put a list out there of different series that are, in my opinion, good. They may not be the greatest to everyone, but they are an enjoyable read. This is just a list of what I have read, so this list may grow over time. There’s […]

Iron Kissed by P. Briggs

6 January 2008 Jackie 3

In comparison to the first two novels in the Mercy Thompson series, I’m not sure how I feel about the third novel, Iron Kissed, by Patricia Briggs. In Moon Called and Blood Bound, Mercy is this strong independent woman who doesn’t let the other werewolves or vampires try to dominate […]

Kitty and the Silver Bullet by C. Vaughn

25 December 2007 Jackie 0

Talk about holiday fever – the stores were so intent on getting out their merchandise for the shopping blitz that they accidentally put out Carrie Vaughn’s new novel Kitty and the Silver Bullet two weeks early. Not that I’m complaining, that just meant I got to read it before a […]

Halfway to the Grave by J. Frost

12 November 2007 Jackie 0

This was one of the best impulse buys I’ve made recently. Halfway to the Grave by Jeaniene Frost is great. I was reading it and thinking “great the ending is so going to be predictable” and it wasn’t. I so didn’t see it coming. The heart throb in the story […]

Touch the Dark by K. Chance

17 September 2007 Jackie 1

I have to say Touch the Dark by Karen Chance was a great find. It’s a vampire novel, but it doesn’t center around a vamp hunter or a necromancer, but a clairvoyant who grew up in the vampire world. Plus, unlike most of the vampire novels I’ve been reading, this […]

Devil May Cry by S. Kenyon

1 September 2007 Jackie 0

I finally got a chance to read Sherrilyn Kenyon’s newest Dark-Hunter novel Devil May Cry. Kenyon’s vampiric world revolves around mythology and the different Pantheons that have existed. We’ve already dealt with gods from the Greek and Norse Pantheons, but this time we’re introduced to the Sumerian Pantheon and some […]

Working for the Devil by L. Saintcrow

25 August 2007 Jackie 0

One of the new authors I’m checking out is Lilith Saintcrow and her series involving Dante Valentine. The premise is even more futuristic than Keri Arthur’s Riley Jenson novels and a slight take from the Laurell K. Hamilton’s Anita Blake series. The first novel Working for the Devil introduces us […]

Tempting Danger by E. Wilks

20 August 2007 Jackie 0

While looking for a new book, I came across Eileen Wilks Tempting Danger. This novel revolves around Lily Yu, who is a detective in San Diego and she becomes involved in a case that changes her life. She’s introduced to the close-knit society of the werewolves (who are legal citizens), […]
