447 pages...woah. A Long book!

4 Stars this was a great read!

I can't classify The Edge Series. It isn't Urban, it isn't Paranormal. It isn't Romance.

I could try to classify this book as 'Swampy Magical Fantasy', but I doubt there are other books out there that would fit into this new category. I suppose I could agree with Gordon and say it is Rustic Fantasy. I think it suits this particular story anyway.

Ilona and Gordon have written a complex miasma filled with Political Intrigue, Fantastic M ...more

Louisiana Bayou, by artist Bettie Jean Bordelon
description

★★★½ This is one of those books that I’ll probably re-read in a year or two and LOVE. Right now it hasn’t been fitting my mood, causing me to take forever to read it. Maybe the labyrinthine twists and turns of the Louisiana Bayou are the perfect setting for the Byzantine-like world that is presented in this one, book #2 of The Edge series. I absolutely loved the first, On the Edge, which was a total surprise. I remember trying to pick up all th ...more

I read this immediately after reading On the Edge. The premise of a boundary land between our regular world and the world of magic is very interesting. The people who live there have to struggle with poverty and various dangers. This story focused on William, a wolf changeling, that we first me in On the Edge.

He wasn't a particularly likable character there, but made a fascinating hero for this tale. He gets thrown in with Cerise early on, and the sparks soon fly. Cerise is a very strong charac ...more

This seemed to be vastly more complicated than the first book

On the Edge (The Edge, #1) by Ilona Andrews

and I don't think that it improved the story at all.

I found it dreadfully slow for the first half and only picked up the second half. Mind you the second half was good, so instead of 3 stars I gave 4.

In this book we've moved from the Edge & the Broken to the Mire. Think Swamp and dangerous animals, not all of whom are people.

Cerise Mar has to hold her large family together when her parents disappear. A long-time rival Clan is sus ...more

I enjoyed this more than the first book in the series - On The Edge. I think because I cared more about the hero in this one. I really loved William. The creepiness of the villains also makes this a very interesting read.
