Incredible, I loved how real the werewolves seemed. They were really a joy to read about.

Tanya Huff. What do you say about Tanya Huff. Every time I read a Tanya Huff book I come away both inspired and depressed. Inspired because it's so good, depressed because if I live to be a hundred I'll never write as well as she does. Amazing!

I have to admit when first reading this I wasn't very optimistic. Although I do love to read and watch everything relating to supernatural stuff, I wasn't exactly wanting to read another werewolf/vampire clash, but this refreshing take on it where they actually get on quite well, even close friends and more, was brilliant!

Vicky was just brilliant in this and her scenes with Henry where amazing!

Okay, this book was good. I liked it as much as I liked the first.

Henry asks Vicki to see some friends of his and is asked to help them. She learns quickly that they are werewolves.

Henry and Vicki's relationship progresses, but then Cellucci shows up. I must say, he is not my favorite character. Nor am I fond of love triangles. (hence 4 instead of 5 stars).

the rest of the story line was good. The wolves were unique and the bad guy was a bit of a surprise.

I like it enough to get the next in the series.

WTF contrivances. Parts of this hurt to read, while parts were pretty good.

This was entertaining, and I enjoyed the family dynamics of the werewolf family. There's nothing new under the sun, here, though, though I probably perceive it that way because this is an older urban fantasy series. Something about Vicki and Henry's "romance" makes me cringe, and I can't quite pinpoint why. It may boil down to the fact that they don't seem to have and emotional or intellectual connection l, just boring (to me) blood-aphrodisiac lust.

This was quite good. It took me some time to finish it, but I was still hooked pretty fast. The story had a great development. I still don't like Celluci at all. I also liked how the author introduced the werewolves in this story. I would also understand the zealot Christian, at least up to a point! Can't wait for the next book.

I think this second book is in someways stronger than the first - a solid mystery that is well paced, with good tension, much less cliched than the first. The character development was strong - particularly the were family who had distinct personalities, instead of being treated as a byproduct of the plot.
Again, there is interesting tension and subplot between the triangle of Henry, Mike and Victoria.
An entertaining read, I'd recommend.
