I really want people to read the books I like. Since I can not force you to sit down and read the book (I am a book nerd, and yes I admit it), I have to write a review and convince you that the book is worth your time, money and the other books that get put on the back burner while reading this one. The problem is I am not very good at writing reviews. Not everything that is in my head comes out on the computer screen. Nevertheless, here it goes...
The story:
Rhiannon Murphy, is a kick ass, take no prisoner chick that has an exterior that makes even vampires stand up and notice. In reality, her inner self is full of pain, and vulnerability. With an abusive past, and some supernatural skills she never wanted, she tries to make herself invisible by playing the bartender role at a strip club. However, Rhiannon's desire to fade into the woodwork does not go exactly as planned. Disco, a truly delicious, I mean good-looking man, I mean vampire, knows that Rhiannon is a Necromancer, and he has plans for Rhiannon, whether she likes it or not.
The action in this book is intense, and the scenes are vivid. I was scared when Rhiannon was scared, I was pissed when Rhiannon was pissed; when she had doubts about whom she could trust, I felt like helping her along. I really liked Rhiannon. Usually, when an urban fantasy tough chick is so tough, she comes across as almost brutish. In this case, the author created the perfect UF chick- tough but tender. Ms. Saare did not overplay Rhiannon's supernatural skills, nor did she make Rhiannon out to be too much the victim.
The other characters in this book, especially Disco and Goose, add to the story and make it very believable (can a paranormal book be believable?). The setting was perfect and described to make you, the reader, feel like you were right there.
The cliffhanger:
I would say I hated the ending. However, in truth, I loved it. The cliffhanger is huge. You will want to read the next book immediately. Like the Fever series books by Karen Marie Moning (a series that has many cliffhangers that have been known to drive the fans...off a cliff), cliffhangers are only as frustrating as the book is good. If the book were not good, we would not care about the cliffhanger since your investment in the book is not that great.
Will I read the next book?-
I HAVE to read the next book. I am dying to know what happened and I am begging Ms. Saare to forgo everything else and hurry with the next book in the series. PLEASE!!!
