I've said it before, and will doubtless say it again: Anthony Francis writes the best urban fiction this side of Charles de Lint.In this, the third of the Dakota Frost books, we find the magical tattooist heroine recovering from both the physical and spiritual wounds she incurred in Blood Rock. She'...

Anthony Francis writes some of the most unique urban fantasy I have ever had the pleasure to read. The Atlanta, GA, of his Dakota Frost books features an Edgeworld where vampires, werekin, and more live in an often uneasy truce, with magical tattoo artist Dakota Frost moving among them ... as well a...

Dakota Frost is a force to be reckoned with. Tall, bold, kick-ass, and fiercely protective; she's no-one's damsel.

This book really has me on the fence. In reading books in the urban fantasy genre, I tend to look for two things: interesting world-building and good characters. Frost Moon does have some appealing world-building – the alternate reality called “Edgeworld” where the vampires, shifters, and magician...

Blood Rock is definitely an improvement upon its adult urban fantasy predecessor, "Frost Moon" in many ways. For one, the story picks up where it left off with having Dakota and Cinnamon, Dakota's adopted weretiger daughter, bonding together before being thrown into the heart of another case where ...
