review 1: Novella by Karen Chance, I don't usually go in for Novela's but the reviews for this were very goodand I try and read every thing the KC writes. I enjoyed this very much. About Claire who is a Null...meaning she's immune to magic. She nearly gets auctioned off to her cousin Seb who plans on selling her to Harvesters who want to harvest her magic abilities. Enter a Light Fey Lord Heidar.They embark on an adventure that they did not ask for. From the human realm to the Fey realm, and notthe friendly kind. While trying to escape Claire learns shes Two Natured. Adventure and romance ensue.
review 2: I liked this short story about Claire, the null witch and Dory's room mate who encounters the fey and realises some truths about her own ancestry. I read it as part... more of the anthology On the Prowl not as a standalone but I've re-entered it here so it shows up on 'my books'as I tend to think of it as Claire's story rather than the Dory prequel.I found Claire in the Karen Chance's Cassie Palmer series quite endearing so I was pleased she had her own story, even though she had been a relatively minor character. Claire is more fun here than in the Cassie books and develops both her maternal touch and her alterego.Having said that I much prefer the Dory books, and this story provides a good way of opening up that narrative. There is a good balance between romance and fast action: I frequently lost the plot but if you are familiar with KC's novels, that's nothing new and half the reason why her books are so much fun. less
