by Dawn Cook, Kim Harrison, Marguerite Gavin
readable first book in a fantasy series.
This book has great world building and a very interesting plot but it moves so slow and the characters seem like teenagers with all the bickering.Will write a proper review later
I wasn't sure what to make of this book after reading all the Hollow's series and this book is so different. The writing style seems different and it was all just not what I've come to expect from Kim Harrison regardless if she was writing under a different name.The story was rather complex and at t...
Loved it!

Of course, since the book has such a trashy cover, my family teased me endlessly. My sister was like, "Brigid, what would possess you to pick up ...
