Silver Wolf Clan

review 1: I bought Silver Wolf Clan when the Published approved my ARC request for book 2. Silver Wolf Clan is an Urban Fantasy novel with a girl on the cover and wolf in the background. In a tradition of Urban Fantasy by a female writer with a female as a dominant image on the cover, I expected a UF with a female lead. Male POV dominates this book and thats ok, but not my reading preference. However, I was really interested in this man's internal struggle. He made sense to me as his animal is taking over while he fights to control this new side of him. My heart went out to this guy. At about 30% when the POV switched to the female, her reactions, actions and dialogue were stunningly poor. She takes martial art classes to learn to defend herself. Her scene enters with attempted rape... more where the female who is into martial arts does not even try to use her martial art training to defend her self. I don't think she even thinks about it. Odd, but hey I will go with frightened because its a horrible thing to be put through. When she sees the hero half shifted she is delighted. Wait what? He is partially shifted just like that one time in camp in the woods where a werewolf attacked her and her sister and her sister DIED. The man who fought him was wounded. I would think she would approach the creature with glowing eyes with caution regardless if she knew him or not. Furthermore, she immediately gets jealous of Alexis and she has no clue who or what that is. She hears him mention the female name and she inquires about her. Anyway, the writing style leaves much to be desired, the male POV in a UF with a female on the cover needs to work harder for me and the female UF heroine's dialogue is...well a bit ridiculous. In this genre we have the mighty Kate Daniels, Kim Harrison, Anita Blake and Merit, the mighty Sentient. So lets see what what I want from another Urban Fantasy? - a girl who will kick ass and take numbers OR a girl who makes sense with mighty Alpha male/s. DNF @43% for UF character failure. 1 star.
review 2: Being more wolf than vampire, from the start, I was intrigued by this new series. The blurb gives hints of a romance, the title hint the universe, but in globality it is the total black out. We can only immerse ourself better in this reading. After saving Morgan's life one year ago, Grey became a monster at the same time. A little like an equitable exchange. Unfortunately he is left alone without knowing too much what to make of this wolf which lives in him, violent, savage, spreading blood in its wake. Grey is a man for whom we can only love. Of an Olympic physical shape, looks sure of himself, he is in fact on the wire of the razor. He is a complex man, who fights internally. Morgan on her side has to try to live a normal life after the attack which unfortunately costed the life of her sister. She raises her niece Lana since then. Morgan is an young woman in reconstruction, courageous, soft, generous. We sticks eayly to her. Little Lana is just too cute! She is afraid of the others, does not speak much but clings immediately to Grey. We feels quickly a father-daughter love between these two. Grey/Morgan romance will be more complicated. They are bonded in a rather macabre way, feeling both of them regrets. However the feelings which they have are powerful and solid. They form quickly a couple, a family with Lana. But obviously there are obstacles to surmount, like Grey's animal nature, his possessive and violent wolf. And don't forget about the bitch clingy girl in the person of Alexis, who will make her possible so that does not function between them. I won't say any more, like the book is short, it is a novel after all, so it is necessary to leave you a little mystery. The writing is simple, direct, pleasant. The auteure does not lost herself and puts everything in her universe, which is packed primarily in the last pages. The end leave us in the expectancy of the continuation and with a lot of questions without answers. A nice reading which I recommand. less
