Atticus & Oberon, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
I really loved this book. It is the very definition of unputdownable! Atticus rocks. Oberon (his loyal Irish Wolfhound companion) is beyond adorable. And as for the rest of the characters, they were quirky and fun and likable and I'll stop while I'm ahead.
Supernatural beings galore populate Hounded. From gods to demons to druids to witches to vessels to fae. For me, someone who is easily bored - reading ADD - I couldn't've been happier.
And as far as romance, it's romance-light, flirting is about as far as it's described. There is, however, the greatest pillow talk scene in the history of books, IMHO.
funny, check.
actiony, check.
Sexy, manly, likable protagonist, check.
great characters, check.
fun, check.
fast-paced, check.
plot, check. (I had to put this in because apparently it's not necessary anymore for many of the other books out there.)
Yep, I have absolutely zero negatives about Hounded.

Yep, i'm one of "those", who must know how to correctly pronounce names. I can already tell I'm into Hounded because I care!" |
