Review: God Wars - Connie Suttle's series
Rating: 3 out of 5

Much as I enjoyed Blood Wars series (ten of them) I found this series less original as a second outing of a human turned vampire unwillingly.With Blood Wars Lissa's trials were at once awesome with regard to her powers and sense of what was right - and annoying with regard to her subservience to a myriad of mates (husband by any other name) except occasionally when she did what she wanted.Breanne's story in God Wars was so similar to Lissa's that I lost a lot of interest by this book as I didn't think I was learning about a new characters. I was sad to do so.With a good, solid and professional editor in her corner, Ms Suttle's subsequent tales could have still been a rollicking good story - but without the cloned characters. She has a fabulous imagination and can build great worlds. She is also incredibly prolific.Note: I had bought all five of The God Wars series so I persevered to the end but it was a bit of a slog.If I had read this series before Blood Wars I would have labelled it a rollicking good yarn in need of a good editor but would have enjoyed it. Two such similar series means I probably won't buy the other two series by this prolific writer just in case.If I were going to encourage you to read a series of Ms Suttle's it would be the Blood Wars Series (ten).
