The Four-Sided Pentacle

review 1: Well balanced with a good blend of plot and explicit sex scenarios. Cenda is recovering from the death of her beloved daughter and only beginning to come to terms with her newfound fire powers. On an evening out she is introduced to the Duke of Ombria, a man with his own tortured past, who is determined to ensnare her so he can be separated from his "demon half." Attracted to one another, each brings out a passion in the other that only unleashes the magic part of themselves that they seek to deny. One warning: if you are creeped out by multiple partner sex, then this book is not for you.
review 2: I was surprised at the erotic nature of this book as I was certainly not expecting it. This book is classed as a paranormal romance but it's much more than that. I... moret's set on an alien planet where interplanetary relationships occur. It's set in a fantasy world with witches, warlocks and evil technomages (scientists/magicians). There's even a M/M angle where "me and my shadow" has new connotations. Regardless, I enjoyed the story though it was more about sex than plot and the "series angle" wasn't even explored until the final quarter of the book setting up future installments. I will be reading the next book hoping that more of the "four-sided pentacle" theme is explained and the sex is cut back to a reasonable level. less
