I just bought the first Vlad Series book last night. It was on sale at Amazon for 1.99 Have you read The Black Sun's Daughter Series yet? The first book is I LOVED this series!

Oooo, no I haven't. I'll have to check it out!

I'm jumping in here and I have to agree with Christal...you've got to read Cat and Bones, Jennifer. He's one of my top 5 book boyfriends :)

LOL I promise I have it right here on my desk. It will be my first March read for sure. I don't think I have heard one bad thing about the series so thank goodness I have the first 3 or 4 ready to go. I do have a quick question for you ladies though that have read them...I see them listed as just Night Huntress (9 Books) and then as The Complete Night Huntress which has 15 books. Should I go ahead and read the Complete or does it bear any change to the story or what do you suggest?

Jennifer, the "Complete" list incorporates the Night Huntress (NH), Night Huntress World (NHW), and Night Prince (NP) aka Vlad books with all the short stories and novellas. It's up to you if you want to read the off-shoots or not. I personally don't think you have to. Here is the reading order from Jeaniene Frost's website.

HALFWAY TO THE GRAVE (NH)
ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE (NH)
AT GRAVE’S END (NH)
DESTINED FOR AN EARLY GRAVE (NH)
FIRST DROP OF CRIMSON (NHW)
ETERNAL KISS OF DARKNESS (NHW)
THIS SIDE OF THE GRAVE (NH)
ONE GRAVE AT A TIME (NH)
ONCE BURNED (NP)

Great! I haven't read any by her. I'll have to check her out.

Pam Jenoff writes really historically gripping stories :)

Ok...so...done:)

Book: The Ambassador's Daughter..Pam Jenoff

Review:although this isn't listed as part of her Kommandant's Girl series.....I wondered from the beginning if it is somehow a part of it.....only it comes before those 2 books historically...............I can't help but wonder if it was meant to set the stage for them...because it takes place between the 2 Great Wars, whilst the others take place during WWII. Her description of Paris, and Versailles, and even Berlin...seem to take one on a journey into the past, where one could get lost in the romantic feeling of the time period....state dinners, dances, conferences, and a lot of "diplomacy" are the backdrop for all the spying that was going on....all the subterfuge creates quite a setting.

Not sure what points I get

You get cover, setting, and bonus word = 9 points

thanks for figuring those points up, Gisela :)

off to request our last dancer...

Congratulations on getting our last dancer Teal We Meet Again!!! I've updated your dance cards for the last time in Post #2 :-)
