Review: Moderately interesting werewolf tale
Rating: 3 out of 5

While I liked the characters in Alexandra's Legacy, I think the book could have used a sterner edit.  There was a lot of repetition and after about the zillionth time I was told that werewolves heal quickly and that Striker was honorable, I was ready to quit reading.  I'm glad I didn't, the last quarter of the book is interesting and the author has created a nice werewolf culture.The plot is simple and the story relies on many variations of the hero protecting the heroine from danger.  Alex is a plucky heroine and displays some initiative, but I did get a little tired of Striker's Tarzan-like chest beating.  It's clear this is the first book in the series when Alex and Striker return to Wolf Creek and encounter Striker's brothers, all of whom seem destined for their own books.  I'll leave them to it.
