This was better than the box set of works 1-4. I'm sure there are those that will dissagree with me, but this is my honest opinion.The book felt like it jumped around. A lot. Top it off that I was not fond of the main character. I was at first, but her attitude seemed to put me in a foul mood the more I read from her perspective. She lacked a certain quality that made her belivable to me. I was also put off by the fact that in the first 25 pages there were things that were not explained that should have been. She just left it to your imagination and jumped to the next scene.The main character spent more time describing her outfits than key elements in the first few pages too. One outfit was enough, tell me things I need to know.**spoiler and graphic**In the begining of the book, like the first chapter, there is a fight scene. I loved it. I liked a lot of this book and it was due to the potential of it that I pushed myself to read more. Eventually that wore off and I put it down.Back to what I was saying: In the begining, there was a man that had been attacked. His pants were unzipped and the character was disgusted. Why did this bother me?One- was it mauled to pieces by the she-wolf?Two- was it entact and she was trying to indicate he was about to have sex befor the Makhaut turned all furry on him?Three- When she picked him up in her arms to carry him the way a male would carry a female, did she happen to tuck away the Mauled/perfectly intact penis before leaping from rooftop to rooftop to take him to the coven?These were things that were just... never explained. Hooray imagination.I gave the book two stars, would have been three but I couldnt even finish the book so I didnt think that fair. Now, I am sure others would love and even become lifetime fans of the writer. But the story had too many flaws for me and felt so jumpy in the first few chapters that I could not enjoy it the way that I wished to. I hope that others find this and feel differently.
