Generally, I do not read fantasy, however this one lures you in, and you forget it is set in the future. A scathing commentary on government, capitalism and the power of money.
awesome!

Hmm, not sure if I'm really much of a Burroughs fan in the end. I remember quite enjoying the book, but is it a question of style over substance, a pseudo-intellectual con-trick ? I still don't know. I quite like a well-written story, to be honest and the "outrageous" nature of this book seems to have rather had the edge taken off when viewing from the 21st century. I could be wrong though.

This is my third Shana Abé book and I'm still in love with all things Drakon. The previous book The Dream Thiefhad my favourite character Zane, and Amalia - the daughter of Kristoff and Rue from Book 1, The Smoke Thief. This one is the story of the Transylvanian Drakon Queen Maricara and Lia's elder brother, the Darkfrith Alpha Kimber. Mari has come to Darkfrith with news of an Old enemy of the Drakon who are trying to wipe them out. But the arrival of a unknown Drakon into a Darkfrith that's been discussing her and her Transylvanian home for years - one who is beautiful, a alpha and who can Turn causes chaos in Darkfrith, with the council, the other men and Kimber all with ideas of their own. Good thing Mari is headstrong to handle them all. This book for me was mostly the story of a courtship among enemies, doubt, mistrust, and longing. Almost all of it from Kim's side. I found Mari to be a well drawn character who knew what needed to be done and was very much like Rue and Amalia in her strength and stubbornness. Kim was a bit more confusing for me - an alpha thrust into the position with lil or no experience at handling everything thrown his way and a man who knew what he wanted but bumbled about while he got to it. I'd have hit him over the head and found someone else in some instances if I was Mari. Other times he was a gem. The Alpha part seemed like second skin to Kristoff, and I guess I missed that in Kim. (btw, I always thought Kimber was a girls name?) The enemies were pretty much confusing and a lot of the story that involved them, especially the ending, left me with a huh? Which brings me to the ending. After all that build up, anti-climax is a mild word for it. I found it too abrupt, and what really upset me was the cliff-hangers. What happened to Rhys, the other brother? Kit, Rue, Lia, Zane ..so many people I want to know about. . It wasn't really a cliff-ending as such, but it left a lot of things up in the air. Now I HAVE to read the next book. I would have anyway, but being forced to due to abrupt endings is not a happy feeling. I love that way Abé writes - poetry and prose all together. Each new book has new characters that have their own abilities and only add to the Drakon world. While not the best book from the 3 I've read so far, this is still a good book that'll keep you turning the pages till 3 in the morning. Do read in order of series to appreciate them though.

I have forgotten how rough and raw this book gets, but it is still fantastic. I wouldn't recommend it without qualification, but it still one of the finer books I have read.

Love it so far! I'm enjoying it more than any of the Yada Yada books - but that husband is a jerk! Just about finished with it and anxious to read the next one due out in september. Also eager to read "Harry Bentley's second chance".
It was a bit darker than I was expecting, but not bad.

I enjoyed the actual case being solved and the setting of the book with the history but there was a bit too much sexualtiy for me. The author also chose to use modern day swear words (the really strong ones)which sort of confused me because the story is in the late 1800's in Istanbul so its hard to imagine such language being used. I will admit that I am not up to date on my history of the use of bad swear words and where/when it started but it just seemed out of place in this story. So the mystery aspect was good but I would not recommend the book overall.

If you're going to dive into the world of The Bright Young Things, you've got to read Nancy Mitford's stuff. Not as good as Waugh, but not awful either.
I loved this book in high school. But I'm about half way through and I just realized that sometimes your memory of a book is better than the real thing. I'll have to see how I feel by the end of it...
