I was all set to start a February purchase next, but I‘ve been craving more Anne Bishop for a while now so I decided to put that plan on hold. So far, I regret nothing. I remembered this book as a smidge less engaging, but it‘s full of the characters just being themselves at each other while they clarify and strengthen their relationships. Love it.
I also love this tiny Atrociraptor I bought on my way home yesterday. Hurray for dinosaurs!
The font size of book three (on the right) is just absurd! It's so small! And that makes it tbh really hard to read and hard not to loose your place. The line spacing is smaller too. Really annoying!!
pickA really good read! I was pleasantly surprised as the friend who gave the book to me didn't like it much. The best thing in my opinion was the MC's choice of partner and why. Oh and lovely horses too! Though the author forgot some aspects of herd life, like the lead mare.
pick10/10
Superbly written, I love this series. Will definitely read again.
JAN 13 #BeginsWith Voice Anne Bishop is one of my favorite authors, I have read most of her books, this one included. This one is a short story. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I‘m a huge fan of Anne Bishop‘s Dark Jewels Trilogy, so I was excited to delve into more stories from her dark universe. This one is a prequel that for me felt more like Bishop writing fan-fiction for her own books. The sexy bits fell very flat and felt slapped in. There were a few laugh out loud moments and her writing style makes it easy to keep the pages turning. I‘m hoping the other books expanding the series are better.
I have heard good things about this series so I am excited to dive in to the first book. #annebishop
pickThe second book in the series focuses on different characters while still keeping those introduced in the previous book around. Masterful story telling, this is a middle book that is clearly a middle book but still fun to read. The powerful Fae are losing, the witches that anchor their world are slaughtered and they must decide what they will do. The Hunter is sought in hope he can lead them while the Witches Hammer strives to destroy.
pickThis is a sad but well written series. I think Bishop does a great job of slowly expanding the world through her characters and while the torture and rape are somewhat graphic, they are nowhere near the reality of the inquisition. This book does a great job of exploring what makes men and women turn their hate onto others and the characters grow and change through out the story. 3.5/5 stars, read if you want to watch Motherland: Fort Salem
pickThis had been on my TBR for ages. OMG! Totally in love. Now I have to hurry up and get the rest of this series asap! The Others series reminds me of why I love fantasy so much. So well done! Love, love, loved it!
