Sometimes characters lead authors to new traits. And sometimes characters are faced with situations that change them from strong and capable to horny puddles of goo. Such is what many of my colleagues seem to feel has happened to Eugenie Markham, the human world Shaman and the otherworld Queen, who was a strong, capable and decisive woman until, well, until now. In the last book Eugenie was raped by a vapid prince whose mother wanted to him impregnate Eugenie in hopes of fulfilling a prophecy. That rape and her boyfriend, Kiyo’s (a Kitsune—fox shifter)refusal to take the life of her rapist, throw Eugenie into the arms of the ruler of another land, an ally she needs. We do see aspects of the real Eugenie at times when she fights other- and under- worldly creatures back in real-world Arizona. There is no one way a rape survivor reacts to the violent assault of rape, so I cannot say whether the change in her character is due to the rape, or a combination of factors. She does seem changed, a bit hesitant and confused. She falls right into the scheme King Dorian has contrived to get a legendary and magical artifact to end the war the two are fighting against Katrice, the mother of the rapist. You know Dorian is Dorian; he is scheming and conniving and slippery, smarmy even. Kiyo: I can never figure him out. Is he with-with the mother of his daughter or just playing her rook? I think Eugenie is spending a lot of time in the other-world because there people haven’t abandoned her and they are taking care of her. That being said, her sexual relationship with Dorian is kind of bondage-oriented. I have a hard time believing a rape survivor would go for that kind of sex, at least not right off the bat. I think the separation between Eugenie and her step-dad and mother has also thrown her for a loop. Instead of pulling her back from the gentry cliff about which she is about to fall, it seems to be pushing closer to the edge. She seems closer to becoming one of them entirely. I think the quest ordeals to get to the magic artifact were too easy. And, then what I see happening to Eugenie is the development of vindictive behavior, almost as if she is be-spelled by certain items or people, or, if not be-spelled then manipulated. Eugenie is becoming that monarch she never wanted to become; the one her stepfather warned her about. The ending marks a betrayal that sends Eugenie back into a place where I thought she might end up. She seems to be getting an idea that people (human or otherwise) are neither all bad nor all good. And, she is learning that even gentry only human. Character oddities aside, I loved the book. As a whole it was better than the sum of its parts. And, as part of the series it is maybe a bit outside the expected trajectory, but I can see reasons for Eugenie’s changes. And, do we really want the next book in a series to be a predictable entity? Like people, the book is neither all bad, nor all good, but it is mostly a good continuation of the series and a necessity if you are a fan. Mead's Website includes many excerpts.

Ahmed Soliman _eed_ore_esigns — The life of a wanderer who left a life of education and money for a life of experiences... kept me reading.

Semi Jung semiselly — This is low on my priority list of things to read, but it had a good review in a magazine for dietitians - "common sense, fad-free approach... easy for any reader to get started...". This was the best out of the reviews they gave compared to other diet books. I'll keep it in mind in case I can refer it to anyone who's interested.

Edith Suárez edithsuarez — really good! i loved it, it was romantic and just lovely

Zhu Jing jean1579974 — This was really cool. It talked about the history of spying and about some really famous spies(I didn't recegnize any of them). It is a usborne!!!!

Zaffar Qureshi _affar_ — This was recommended to me a while ago and it's a cute story about finding your place in the world.
