Ryan and Stefan are making up for all those years apart. Slowly. Sweetly. Pouring out all of their suppressed emotions, desires and needs. One deliciously erotic message of Stefan's back (upper and lower, and lower still) now becoming more than just a message.

This book is written with such feeling by Mr. Banner one can actually place themselves in the moment.

The antagonist has taken his next victim, but they are both trapped by a fierce blizzard, neither one able to escape the other.

The Sentinel, appearing nightly, does its best the keep the Nothus confined to its underground lair and taking more young boys to transform into beings such as itself.

Plot has coalesced nicely, but life is about to become a whole lot harder for the "gifted" as a result of Tommy, the main protagonist, beating the crap out of his nemesis, Brunner, who is a "normal."

The beginning is complicated by too many characters introduced too quickly without proper development. Only on page 82 and at least 4 victims have been killed. That's a fast-paced death toll.

Written is a more serious tone than Mr. Banner's other works, but still snaky in the correct places, I find myself liking this book's pacing, prose and story lines better than or equal to the author's other books. Low heat so far, but I expect that to change shortly.

Strange, stranger, strangest. Best description of this book so far. I will warn would-be readers of this book that you MUST read its predecessor, The Sentinel, for book #1 has many tie-ins with this sequel. Without having read The Sentinel, this book will confuse the crap out of you!

The print copy I am reading has 426 total pages.

Another wonderfully written story with flashbacks to an awakening adolescence between to young boys and the men they grew up to become.

Closing arguments have concluded, the verdict handed down. A unanimous verdict.

I sense a "Storm" brewing.

My kind of book. The "haves" and the "have nots."

I can only say, "Wow!"

Discovering facts about this highly famous double murder I did not know before. A most thoroughly researched book. Impressive!!

A major complication occurs between Kai and Silas, resulting from Silas' refusal to tell Kai everything concerning his past.

The jury is being readied to deliberate.

Miss Borden's trial is underway. Lawyers on both sides are brilliant and victories, large and small, are won by the prosecution and defense.

The plotlines are coalescing and the conclusion does not bode well for anyone who dared to cross Oksana. Some truly freaky factors have changed this once young girl into something completely incomprehensible.

Oksana is delivering her vengeance!

An absolute joy of a book. Kai's constant habit of trying not to curse is humorous and cute while Silas' opening of his broken heart slowly brings love back into its emptiness.

So well researched, but yet not in a dull, boring manner. The accompanying photos of the people involved and the Borden home and neighborhood only serve to enhance the realism.

Meticulously researched, photographs included and still invariably entertaining!

Terror is closing in for the former students of Tenbury Prep School!

A tauntingly imaginative story that takes the reader places they would not otherwise dare to venture.

A well researched novel about one of most infamous murder cases of the 19th century.
