Review: Book 4 - and it only gets better
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 11 9, 2011
I bought the first book in the series after seeing all the rave reviews that followed and found myself reading all night and buying the next one on my kindle as soon as I finished - I think I read all 4 books in 4 days!  And boy, I wasn't disappointed!  I love this series - it moved away from the typical vampire/heroine type novel and just kept on moving.... to wonderful new worlds that are described and accepted just as naturally as our world is!I initially found myself annoyed at Lissa for not standing up for herself, for just accepting her lot in life as if there was nothing left for her to fight for.  It was only in the 3rd novel that I realised that Ms Suttle was slowly building many background stories that, even in the 4th book, are still coming together. And Lissa - well, she came through in the end and I was cheering her as she told the Vampire Council where to stick their views and laws.The 4th book has veered so far off course from the first book, if Ms Suttle hadn't dropped little tidbits throughout you would probably think you were reading a different series.  But it flowed so well, I just accepted it and enjoyed the story for what it is - a story! Full of imagination, hero's, bad guys, myths and legends.. the list is endless.  And Lissa, well, she's had a hard life and it looked life her vampire life would be just as bad... but her sacrifices will pay off in the end, making her the true heroine we all want to see.I can't wait for the next book to come out!  Well Done Connie Suttle!
