review 1: I quite enjoyed this one. I know some of the other reviewers have gotten bent out of shape about how wimpy the heroine was, but it fit in with the mythos of this world that Rebecca has built so I don't quibble with it even if I had to grimace occasionally because of it. This isn't a human story, it is epic storytelling of a different kind of shifter race who travel the worlds and I reveled in getting a glimpse of it. I'll definitely be reading the next one in the series. I recommend it to anyone who likes quests and shifters and a little sci-fi thrown in for good measure. On the other hand, if you are seriously disturbed by a lack of women's lib in a story line then this is not the book for you.
review 2: Free Read, read for PR/UF Aug Challenge.I should have be... moreen able to get through this quickly since it's only 188 pg. Instead it was a bit of a struggle. I had a few problems. Now, I fully expected it to be smexytimes, all the time, because, hello Ellora's Cave. And those were what I expected. The struggle I had was with the various unfamiliar names for places, people, endearments, etc., that I had to sound out. Now, I don't mind a few words here and there, and actually, applaud the author for the creativity in coming up with them. But there were more than just a few of these "creative" words and they pulled me out of the story every time I read one.Also, Raven & Caidi didn't seem to be emotionally invested in each other up until the very end. Yes, they were having smexytimes a lot, but it felt kind of disconnected from them somehow. I can't explain it. Then I had issues with both characters. They were both very strong characters. Raven was kind of an extreme Alpha, and it annoyed me that he didn't think Caidi knew how to take care of herself, even though she had been ruling and protecting a large pack of women since she was 14. Also as I mention, Caidi was very strong, until Raven touched her and it seemed she 'melted' at his touch too many times, especially if he pissed her off. Just one touch and she was over it. lol I guess it's the Scorpio in me, but I tend to stay angry/hold a grudge for a long time. lolEven with that, it was still interesting even if a little frustrating for me to read. less
