I read <I>Cry Wolf</I>--the first in her Alpha and Omega series and <I>Dragon Bones</I>, which is the first of a fantasy duology she wrote awhile back. Both were very enjoyable.Angiegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00353676756221692186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5146259764837045872.post-35296636782952434412009-03-10T18:26:00.000-04:002009-03-10T18:26:00.000-04:00Tia - The covers are very misleading.

I too would definitely expect sex galore if judging the book solely on the outside.<BR/><BR/>There are vampires but they only show up once or twice (although from what I've heard, they show up more in the second book). I'm not a fan of vampires either, but I did really like how Mercy dealt with them.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700004253248186101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5146259764837045872.post-60159359351126582132009-03-10T02:12:00.000-04:002009-03-10T02:12:00.000-04:00I, too have been put off by the covers of this ser...I, too have been put off by the covers of this series which, based on your review, must present a distorted picture of the story within. I would not expect a church-going, clean-talking heroine behind this cover. I certainly would expect sex.<BR/><BR/>I sighed when I got to the part about vampires, but other than that, your review made me more curious about the series.

Have you read any of the books in other series Patricia Briggs has written?<BR/><BR/>Orannia - Thank you! I loved that Mercy was very sensible too and I am glad to hear she will stay true to who she is. :)<BR/><BR/>And I am so glad to hear you liked <I>Melusine</I>. The last book comes out in about a month so you won't have a long wait for the rest of the series!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700004253248186101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5146259764837045872.post-82408439166185100452009-03-09T18:04:00.000-04:002009-03-09T18:04:00.000-04:00Lovely review Kristen!
