Now, the only reason that I read this novel, or gave it a 3 was because of JD Robb's Interlude in Death. THAT IS THE ONLY REASON.
Interlude in Death, by JD Robb was just what I have grown to love and expect...a wonderful read about Eve and Roarke. In this story, Eve has been asked to speak at a conference "off" planet by her Commander, Whitney. So on top of hating "space" travel, she has to solve the mystery of who killed someone she slugged hours before. It appears that someone has an axe to grind with her husband, and they aren't too particular about her as well. You will simply love as she weaves her way through an investigation with a sexy police chief who works for Roarke. This short story definately was worth a 10, hence my 3 rating. WONDERFUL.
Kinsman, by Susan Krinard was well.....had potential, but just seemed to fall flat. Two telepaths work together, one with the hope that she will locate her missing brother (and his ship), and the other hopes that she will have his child. The only thing, one of them has lost his abilities because of an accident that killed his late wife. Will he find love? Will she find her brother? Why is this story so...lacking in, maybe it is plot? Didn't make me want to go out and get another one of her books, that's for sure. TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.
Immortality, by Maggie Shayne had potential, but ended up flat as well. A witch is drowned, or rather reincarnated to......not really sure why she was reincarnated. While pregnant, she dies in a fire that she set (I think)to pay back her cheating husband and his lover. OK. So she wakes to a man (a couple of centuries later)who has also lost a wife and child. Will she fall in love with the handsome stranger? And while she waits to see, there are a host of other subplots occurring (a storm, his wife's death, etc), that makes the story less enjoyable. OK.
Magic Like Heat Across My Skin, by Laurell K. Hamilton was the most disappointing. If you read my other reviews you know that I do not like Laurell K. Hamilton, but I was willing to give her another chance. Initially, I thought ok, this is going to be interesting, and MAYBE I see why everyone likes her. But that was it, I was so disappointed. The characters that I didn't like from the later books, are present and I should have liked them more because they provided some background, but I didn't. I am still sick of Richard and Jean-Claude, and most of all Anita (who isn't Buffy, or close to it). JUST PLAIN DUMB.
So, while I read it for JD Robb, I could have done without the other stories, but you know I am a fool for a book and read it. But if you can, don't purchase, just borrow from the library.

Had it not been for Nora Robert's contribution to this book, I would have rated it with no stars. The Eve Dallas story was great as usual, however the rest of the short stories were awful. I always read what I start but in this case I should have changed that rule. Just awful!!!

I bought this book for Book #14 in the In Death series, Interlude in Death. I liked JD Robbs story and found that although short, it was very entertaining. Eve and Roarke are "off planet" for a seminar when faced with murder. She is forced to go head to head against an ex-cop considered a hero.
As for the other stories. I also found them entertaining, but have to admit that if this book didn't contain the JD Robb story, it would be going in the "good enough to read, but not good enough to keep" pile.
Interlude in Death is excellent. The rest are entertaining.

I normally do not like sci-fi type books, but I have to say that the stories in this book were very well written and I really enjoyed them.

If you are a J. D. Robb fan you will love her portion of this book. To be honest, it is the only reason I bought this book and it is the only section that I enjoyed.
