Shadowfever
Celeste,I think it comes out next spring/summer. I believe.
So long! Don't these author's know they're torturing us! ;)Thanks for the info Brandy!
I am with Laurie you should read it anyway becuase then you have a whole year to stew about it
I want to so badly!! It really is soooo hard to resist! It's inevitable, I'm going to break down and read it!!
Even though cliffhangers really suck, it does really build up the excitement for the next installment. I can't wait for Shadowfever. But waiting until August?? Ugh.

Faefever's cliffhanger was had me literally screaming in frustration! I'm glad to know this one's cliffhanger isn't quite as bad! Ok, you've pretty much convinced me, I'm going to read it. Ahh!
I think this cliffhanger was pretty bad. bc if its what i think it is..... o nooo. but you have to read it Celeste!
Yea, for me, this cliffhanger is worse. It's just so exciting because we know that in one short year we'll have the answer to all of our questions!What will we blog about then?!
Oh no! Worse? What happens?? No, don't tell me. hahaha. Now you've peaked my interest!
yea the cliffhangers are the worse. especially this last book there are so many loose ends
worse! lol. But in my opinion the best book yet!!we can still blog about it because we'll all be rereading them and finding stuff we didn't see before!!
I hope Dani gets her own series also. I would love to see her grow up. She is going to be amazing.
yeah that would be neat if dani did get her own series, there is so much more to tell. but for me it would all depend on how the last book ends.
Mod
OK! So, I read it... and I have ONE question... WHO THE HECK DID SHE KILL??? LOL.
Mod
Celeste,we are all trying to figure that one out... which is so nerve racking
When the heck is your spring/summer??? I'm way over the other side of the world and my spring is just starting and about to morph into a full-on summer, there's no way I'm going to let myself get excited yet... Well that's not true, but there's no way I'll let myself get THAT excited yet...
Dreamfever was my favorite so far. I love them all though. Dreamfever so ended on a cliffhanger and I'm dying to know what happens next!! AH, I cannot wait for Shadowfever. It's worth it to read it now!!
I don't think the person at the end of the novel is Barron. That's impossible!! I don't think Karen Marie Moning would end the novel with the death of Mac's lover and constant savior. It wouldn't seem right. Plus, I don't think that Barron is Unseelie. He is far more complicated than an unseelie.
okay so I got it. Barrons is part of the gergard. On dark highlande they talk about voice. It makes sense

I might have spelled it wrong. The gergard. They were a secret sec that wanted the evil druids to come back into the world and take over
But Barrons isnt evil. He's a macdaddy.
no he is not evil, but there is something dark about him
Hi! Karen Marie Moning posted one of Barrons' tattoos on her blog. Here is the link:http://karenmariemoning.blogspot.com/...
I have been analyzing it to see if it can tell me more about Barrons, but I am really bad at that stuff. ;D
I like the tattoo. I wonder though....is the infinity sign in the middle relate to actual infinity, like he's immortal and will live forever, or does it have something to do with "see, serve..."
Mod
do you mean the Dragghar from daegus' story?
yes thanks..... I knew I was spelling it wrong :)
Concerning the release date:This was the latest info given through her newsletter:
"SHADOWFEVER RELEASE DATE: I don’t know the release date for Shadowfever yet but I anticipate late summer/early fall 2010. I’m hard at work on it and loving it! It feels so good to be writing the final installment in Mac’s story. I’ve waited four years to get here and I can’t wait to share it with you! I’ll keep you posted about release dates as soon as I know something concrete."
As for theories on whom Mac has killed and how the finale will be...i try not to read about it since i get WAY to engrossed in it up to the point where i go insane! :) ....but once in a while i do take a peak at what other theories are...some are actually quite good.
A whole year! That stinks.Anyway....I started reading the series for the 2nd time, trying to pick up on clues and I had a question I was hoping somebody would be able to answer. Maybe I should know this, but I don't and its been driving me crazy!
Zoey keeps talking about guys being "Lefties" or "Righties" - she said Barrons was 'so a Rightie' and he replied with 'Touche'. What the HECK does leftie and rightie mean. Its driving me mad - lol! Somebody PLEASE enlighten me.
I know! I was so bummed when I figured another year for SF after finishing dreamfever in August... I just did a re-read again of all the books, and probably will re-read. again... ahhhhh!!!RIGHTIES and LEFTIES: Barons says something like, "what is in question, whether I can see fae, or whether I'm a man", cause you know I can see fae, and well, I can prove I'm a man.... then he reaches for his belt... mac says "You're a Lefty, I know you're man.... etc"... Barrons: "Touche Ms. Lane".... (this was all paraphrasing of course)
My take on this - well, she's obviously stared at his groin, and could clearly see there was something there, and that it was hanging to the left.... thus a "Lefty"... I think Barrons says "Touche" cause he realizes she's been checking out his groin, and has no doubt he's a man....
from KMM's blogs, release will be late summer/early fall 2010, and she also said she's not giving up any hints or sneak peeks into SF just yet.... I'm hoping she'll give a little snippet as a christmas present to her fans...
that would be a nice christmas gift
the whole book would be a nice xmas gift!...not that im being greedy or anything...
Swear to god im not going to sleep the night before this comes out!
Celeste, I can't believe people are saying Dreamfever is not as big of cliffhanger as Faefever. I think it's so much worse! I think it's the biggest cliffhanger ever! It is KILLING me waiting for Shadowfever! It's pure torture!

Dreamfever's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse, at least with Faefever you didn't quite love the characters as much, and now it's like OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!!!!!I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait,I cannot wait...
I am with you all. Here you with this book you saw mac and barron have full throttle sex. in the prior book you knew something big was going to happen but the big relationship and love was just building. well now that it is built. we are dying here. this is WAY worse. I want to know who died.we knew some kind of freaky was happening before
So I liked this book a tons it was by far my favorite in the series thus far but it was also the most upsetting. I was so frustrated with Mac and Barron's going back to the way they were before...he really does care about her you could tell when he was trying to help her get better (for lack of a better way of putting it). He gave her a Christmas tree for crying out loud. He danced naked with her. I think that she is the key for unlocking his heart, (and I know that is so cliched and romantic), I think that he has locked it away from whatever it was that the boy in the desert was. She is the only person who can help him, and it probably isn't even the book that he needs, just her. Of course I am a romantic so that is my romanticized take on things. Just started reading the series about a week ago when I friend gave them to me. So I have not had time to adjust and rethink these theories.
I am in love with this series and can't wait for Shadowfever. I don't have time to set and read a book so I listen to them and Im so glad that Phil Gigante help read Dreamfever. His voice has made me even more in love with Barrons. Natalie Ross also did a great job. I hope that they both Read Shadowfever. (Thanks to Phil Gigante Im also in love with all the highlanders.)
I know! He does the Scottish brogue so well.
I am with you. I am in love with his voice. (thinking) all hot and heavy :)
::listening to the Spell of the Highlander audiobook::I just heard something intersting.
Remember at the very beginning of the book, the Professor is killed? When Jessie was talking to Mark on the phone, he mentioned that right before the Professor died, he had sold property that he owned in Georgia.
Just the fact that he was mixed up with dark hallows and had property in Georgia makes me suspicious. Do you think this has ANYTHING to do with that fact that Mac was happily drumming along to her one hit wonders in Georgia?
oooooooooooooooo scandalous! I'm going to have to do some rereading i think!

But every time I go to read it, I remember my anguish of finishing Faefever and realizing how long I had to wait for Dreamfever to come out! So... I am trying my very hardest to wait. Then, I'm going to have a Fever-athon and re-read them all through! :)
