W. Tinkanesh I have been curious about your books for a while, but I also have a high to-read pile of books. However, 'Flesh Circus' made it to the top of it when a paperback copy showed up in my field of vision at a friend's birthday party yesterday. First impression: tight writing, worth reading.

Katherine thanks for accepting my friend request - i love strange angels series, they are fantastic - your books are so good because they are so different to the books that are out atm and they feature a female protagonist who is strong, stands up for what she believes in and doesnt ntake shit from no one! Books should have more female characters like dru :P
