January 2011 PNR challenge

1/10 read

Read the Creatures

1. vampires
(undead, different species, spawned by aliens, even sparkly ones all accepted)

2. werewolves
(most popular of all weres, our lupine faves deserved their own separate category)

3. shifters
(transforms to any kind of animal except for wolves...see category 2)

4. gods/goddesses/immortals The Iron Hunt by Marjorie M. Liu


5. demons/angels
(demons: whether good or bad; angels: fallen or not, winged or not: any other denizen of either heavenly or hellish persuasion)

6. witches/warlocks/sorcerers/mages
(all of the aformentioned plus any practitioners of magic)

7. fae/fairies
(elves, seelie/unseelie, etc)

8. aliens/space cowboys/space adventurers/space mercenaries
(or any story set in space)

9. psychics/ghosts/humans with paranormal abilities
(telekinesis, mind reading, time travel, etc)

10. hunters/warriors/slayers/guardians (men or women who live to fight and/or protect)



Ok, I have to admit--I was not totally sure WHERE to post this book. Depending on what else I read, I might decide to change it from 4 to 10, since Maxine is a Hunter/Guardian/Warden. But since there was Old Wolf and Unicorn in this book (as well as a bunch of demons, an immortal youth and the Lightbringer) I figured that it fit #4 and decided to start it there.

This is the first BOOK from this series that I've read, but I did read a short story (or maybe 2) based on this series recently, which inspired me to break down and get this first book. I will be adding the rest of the books from the series to my tbr pile as I find them available.

Aww, that's too bad. I was looking forward to reading about the Gardellas again.

Maybe for Guardians or Immortals? I think Carpathians would work for either of those.
