THE HARBINGER is the fourth installment in Christine Rain’s 13th Floor Collection and it’s the fourth one that I’ve read. I have to admit that my background in Greek mythology is sketchy at best. However, that didn’t diminish my enjoyment level. In fact, I think I liked it even more since I learned a few things from the story.Meira Harper is a fantastic character. A Harpy who has to fetch souls for Zeus and who loves her stunning shoe collection. I loved this bit about the shoes, making Meira an individual with personality. When Zeus calls for the soul of Sam Wright, Meira is shocked. She’s dating Sam and doesn’t want to lose him. She pleads for his life and Zeus agrees to let Sam participate in three challenges. If he can win all the challenges, he can keep his soul. One problem: the gods don’t play fair.This is a sweet romance with some action thrown in. My favorite aspect, besides the antics of the gods, was the relationship between Sam and Meira. I’m a sucker for an old fashion romance with a twist or two. I enjoyed this installment in the 13th Floor Collection and look forward to the rest of the series. Rains has an effortless writing style and her characters pull me in each time.
