Review: Waking the beast
Rating: 3 out of 5

The story starts with an interesting legend about shapeshifters and the h's obsession with it, but it gets bogged down due to repetition, lack of action and lack of interesting dialogue.  The action in the book is in the beginning and at the end, but so many characters are introduced in the latter part of the story and too much is happening all at once after having mentally slept through the middle of the book.  But definitely got slapped awake by the yucky, unbelievably sick ranting of the h's uncle.  The author's writing style is pretty good and knows how to bring the hotness, but the story needed more work and was overpriced, hence 3 stars.  Totally disagree with anyone who compares this to Laurann Dohner.
