Yeah! I love that series so much and I get so happy when someone else discovers her :) Enjoy. I can't wait for the next book, it has been sooooo long!


I know its terrible. But gives us some thing good to look forward to.

I'll be curious to hear what you think of Beautiful Disaster. I tried to read it, but just couldn't get into it. Right now, I'm reading

I like to call those filler books, what I read in between what I really, really want to. lol





I think I might start



I know right! I hated the ending. I read somewhere on a message board that the author was going for a king Arthur kind of retelling and he has gone to that island to heal and be reborn sometime or something like that. I loved the series and then that ending just sucked for me lol.


I'm glad it wasn't just me. And I didn't quite get what happened to Boston and everyone there. Does life just go on like before? Was anything changed? And that bit with Maeve at the end (view spoiler) ["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>







Is number 6 the last book of the series?

I think so. It's been over two years since book 6 came out and I haven't heard anything about another book. And it felt like the final book with the way it wrapped up most of the threads of the series.

I love the Eileen Wilks series. The interactions between Lily and Rule make the series for me and I adore Lily's grandmother.


On audio, I'm giving



Thanks. If they are done, then I will be able to read the whole series straight in!



Ah well, it is still a lot of fun, excitement, magic, and mystery, with an evil grandmother, an obsessive and a family obsessed, xenophobic clan. Overall? If you love Dresden or Nightside, I will be recommending it in my review...






And I'm almost done with




Now I've been reading/listening to some PNR. Loving Immortals After DArk series by Kresley Cole and slowly getting into Lords of the Underword by Gena Showalter. So far, I hands down prefer IAD. But both are worlds above my current listen



I want to roll back to those, Mitabird. Just haven't had time. I just finished reading







I love that series as well. And the audiobooks narrated by Robert Petkoff are incredible.


Also finished

I'm finally in the mood for Kitty again, so next up in print is

impressed so far"
I thought it was a good book as well. The world building wasn't my favorite, but it was very unique. What I liked was the main character and the tone of the novel.

OK Here is my review... tell me what you think. Does it sound like something you would enjoy? I am trying to get more attention to my blog, but it seems like a slow slog.... (sheepish grin)

I really didn't care for the writing I found it to be very amateur like. Plus pages were missing from my EBOOK yea Idk how that happened but I am not a happy customer.


I got a book, it was a book of short stories and involved two short stories that I bought from Science Fiction Book Club and forty pages from the beginning were repeated in the middle. I contacted SFBC and they sent me another copy.
I just finished yesterday

Anyway, complex world building, well crafted and original mythologies, and interesting characters are exactly what I look for in a new series. It's definitely on my list of things to read now. Thanks for sharing the review!

Some of the reviewers complained because there was 'too much archeology' (?!?!)
She DOES talk about the "Hot, dusty, tedious" part, LOL. When this starts she is doing mindless grunt work cataloging site pieces. It is pretty interesting stuff, and I like action, so I was all over it.
