![]() ![]() ![]() Kera is an ex-Marine that started managing a coffee shop once she left the service. The writing reminds me of Laurenston's Pride series so if you like that you'll probably like this. I liked Kera and Vig very much and the story was pretty good. Unless this type of thing may be trigger for you, you might want to give it a try.ģ.5-4 stars This was a pretty good story. I am in favor of all kinds of books, even those I do not choose to read. That is in part the author's doing, but to me, some narrators can make men just seem manly. The male characters sound like men - maybe not with depth of voice but with tone and, for lack of a better word, attitude. ![]() (I really need this in a book.) The narrator is, as always, splendid. She does a terrific job of keeping her characters true to themselves as established, rather than having them act randomly to drive the story. Other than this tendency for many of the characters to disregard others' suffering (see the above comment about scenes the reader can 'see'), I think this series is better-written than some of her others. And yes, a couple of the characters have their humanity intact. I'm not making judgments, other than for myself. ![]() The characters are sociopathic in their ability to switch from ripping someone to pieces with as much pain as possible and then chatting about their daily lives and how much they like dogs. While I generally enjoy Shelly Laurenston books - she is more than capable with characterization and using her words and grammar and creating scenes you can 'see' - this series is just too violent for me. ![]()
