Dark Side of the Moon

Sherrilyn Kenyon

(3/5)

I liked this book.  Ravyn and Susan Michaels are very interesting characters and I enjoyed reading their story.  A former Were Hunter and a former Investigative Reporter makes for quite a combination.

Ravyn is damaged by his past where the woman he loved betrayed him and caused him to lose all he loved most.  As a Dark Hunter he continues to hunt and kill Daimons who seek to subjugate humankind.  Susan was betrayed by a trusted source and her career was destroyed, and she now works for a small newspaper that publishes alien stories.

The pace is fast and the action jam packed.  Ravyn is an awesome fighter and Susan is more then able to protect herself and those she cares about.  There is a good back story about Ravyn’s history and how many women get to buy a cat at the pet store and end up with a hunky naked man in their house.

There is a lot of detail that is covered in the book.  Sherrilyn gives the reader a lot of information about the Squires that has been hinted at in other books and also fleshes out more about the Dark Hunters.  In this book it’s collected and given to the reader nicely packaged.

I enjoy reading the books of the Dark Hunter series and look forward to more to come.

Dark Side of the Moon is enjoyable and I would read it again.

The book can be bought from Amazon or Fishpond in Australia.

100+ Books 2010 Reading Challenge

I’ve signed up for a 100+ Reading Challenge at Home Girls Book Blog.  The goal is to read 100 books in 2010.

To record what I read in 2010, I’ve created a page with all the books I’ve read so far in 2010.  Check out 2010 Books.

I read many more books then I review so if there’s a book that I haven’t reviewed and you would like to read my thoughts about it, just send me an email.

I read at least 3 books a week, so I expect I will complete this challenge.  Watch my blog for how long it takes.

The Sorceress of Karres

Eric Flint and Dave Freer

[rating=4]

The Sorceress of Karres Recommendation

Buy this book if you love adventure and humour.

I loved the original story and was happy when Mercedes Lackey, Eric Flint and Dave Freer starting writing in this universe with The Wizard of Karres.

Sorceress is written by Eric Flint and Dave Freer. The authors keep close to the original author’s style so reading this book was a pleasure.  Watching Pausert and Goth grow and learn about each other has been so interesting.

This book takes us into some of the unexplained parts of the universe created by James H. Schmitz in The Witches of Karres.  Sorceress tells us more about the Chalador – one of the most dangerous places to travel to.  Even the mighty Karres witches stay out of Chalador, however Pausert heads into it at their request.  With his trademark landings and take offs, it’s a surprise when he manages to do it more then once.

Whilst Pausert is heading into the Chalador and facing near certain death, Goth is learning more about Pausert’s past and doing some growing up along the way.  This is one young lady who knows what man she wants and will do everything necessary to protect him.

This is a series that I hope has many more stories waiting to be written.

You could buy it from Amazon, Fishpond and Webscriptions.
