This was really good! The Watchers are somewhere between a Sherrilyn Kenyon and a Robert Jordan creation -- I love both, so I had fun with this story. It's a quick read, and I was happy to see that there will be a whole series to follow. This author creates strong female characters, and in this series at least, she has a good knack for creating a setting and a sense of place without harping on the details too much, if that makes sense.

Sort of a Paranormal/Urban Fantasy by Lilith Saintcrow. Theodora is a powerful witch, who has been targeted for death by a powerful group of zealots. Dante, a "watcher" as been sent to guard her. Pretty good story. There is a subtle romance between Dante and Theo, but it is secondary. What is Theo willing to sacrifice to live her life on her own terms?
Really good book. I've just started reading this author and I love her work.
A good series about witches.
Very disappointing. Her Dante Valentine books are so much better. On the plus side its a good cure for insomnia.
