Review: Dangerous dragon shifters
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 12 3, 2011
Book 2 in the Gray Zone series. This could be read as a standalone novel. I noticed that the author has included a glossary and an Author's Note explaining the history of the Dragon Kin world. This world is complex and unusual and I think these extras will really help readers to appreciate her stories even more.This gritty and poignant tale is told in the 1st person POV of Liam. Liam has led a tragic life, sexually abused by his alcoholic stepfather, and struggling to protect his two younger brothers from meeting the same fate. He meets Jericho, a lesser-bred in a bar and for the first time in his life he feels a strong physical attraction to another person. There are several twists and turns and a lot of danger in the story as Liam fights to keep himself and his brothers alive and also cope the the physical and emotional changes in his life.As usual the Kin and lesser-bred come across as enigmatic and dangerous. Chris and Kevin, Liam's brothers, are vulnerable and I became very attached to them. I'm really hopeful (almost sure) that they must figure in a future book because there are a couple of things left unanswered in their stories. I would call the ending HFN. Highly recommended for fans of urban fantasy.
