This was an interesting take on the shapeshifter sub-genre, and a much darker tale than what I'm used to from this author.Dr. Nick Sewell is a professor at Cambridge university. He's also a werewolf, bitten and turned by an ex-boyfriend, and still struggling a bit with the wolfy parts of him.Julian,...
The prose was strong and convincing, the story was atmospheric and rich with detail, and I liked the idea of a PNR set in a Cambridge college, of all places. Nick was appropriately British, and the whole thing had this air of being faintly but politely confused, which was very appropos. The probl...
4,5 stars.A werewolf m/m romance with some unusual twists."What the hell was so bloody fair about a fair fight anyhow? It didn't make you any more right if you won. It just meant you were bigger and could hit harder. Or, as if might be, had sharper teeth."Nick is a professor and a werewolf - turned ...
2,5 starsWhat I liked in this book* It's a long complex story, full of charming secondary characters * Nick is a GREAT character, but it worries me A LOT about this tendency to be an abuser (what happened to his ex... it worried me a lot)* I LOOOOOOOOOVE J.L.

I ...

I felt pretty conflicted reading this one. Parts I enjoyed and parts just turned me off. The world building was a plus, mostly liked the secondary characters... but I didn't like to overuse of the word 'dearie'. Ack. And really couldn't get away from the feeling that Julian was shagging Dr. Nick Sew...
This books fits several of my favorite book categories. It's fantasy, better even urban fantasy, it's an M/M novel and it takes place in a city I actually now and have been, which makes the whole story more real (if you can say this about a fantasy book). The story is well written. I was a bit annoy...
