Rating: 5 out of 5

Dear Lanie Jordan,I am writing this review as a fan letter to you in hopes that you and many other fans will see it.First of all, I think I am in love with you. You are amazing. As a writer myself, I couldn't decide whether to be jealous because you are so much more awesome than I am, or to just throw myself at your feet and worship your awesomeness. I guess I chose the second. Though, truthfully, I am still a little jealous. But, well, in a good way. Like, in a way that makes me want to strive to be like you. Will you be my best friend?Second of all, I am definitely in love with your books. I finished reading Breed of Innocence (which was included in one of those super reasonably-priced bundle purchases Amazon has been teasing me with more and more lately) just the other day, and I had to curse my Kindle because I didn't have Wi-Fi access at that exact moment and couldn't immediately download the next books. But once I had my Wi-Fi back, I bought the next two in the series. I am in the middle of the second one, and so far, you haven't let me down at all.Now to get into why I love you/your books so much. The story = amazing. The characters = amazing. Pace of the book = amazing. I can't put the thing down. And since I tend to read while commuting on a crowded Tokyo train during rush hour, this is dangerous! Have you ever tried reading while on a crowded Tokyo train during rush hour?!? It's a challenge, let me tell you. Almost as dangerous and chasing after demons! Okay, not really, but I'm just so excited that I have to exaggerate a little. I feel like I have stepped into Jade's life just from reading this book. I really want to go out there and hunt me some demons!Also, I love how you have categorized the concept of "demons" and then have the subspecies and hybrids and all that. Amazing. I love it. It's so simple, yet so original and an amazing breath of fresh air. Have I said the word "amazing" enough in this review? Amazing. There. There's another just for good measure.I can't write enough good words to express my feelings about this story. Maybe I could throw in another "amazing," but that might be overkill. Also, I'm itching to get back to the second book! I'm sure you will be hearing more good words from me again soon!Your Newest Fan,A. Lynn Powers
