Review: Great Novella - read book two first!
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 01 10, 2013
I read this series completely out of order and this novella was the one that got me started; although I enjoyed each book, I would have appreciated the character development and nuances if I had read the books in order. Having read this book first (and ironically all the others in reverse order due to library availability), I was not able to immediately appreciate the author's long-range plot development. As a full body of work, Thea Harrison's series is very complex and the books interlock well without taking away from each set of characters' individual stories. Like all the books in the series this book was really well plotted and well written. Aubrey was a sympathetic character from book 2 (Storm's Heart) and it is nice to see such a gentle man find a worthy partner. Its a nice short story that gives this guy a second chance. I enjoyed it as a stand alone, but I think it should be read after book two to appreciate Aubrey's background.
