Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - originality, action and adventure in this continuation of Dirk & Steele series
A small package causally toss in the lap of Blue Perrineau is the start of a new Dirk and Steel adventure. Back in the USA, Blue gets the news that his father is dead. Now he must search for his brother, the legal heir.

Shape-shifter Iris McGillis works with big cats for a Las Vegas based circus. Her cat like moves and her affinity for the big cats attracts more than just the usual crowds. Her act has pulled in some dangerous interest too.

The action comes fast and hard once all the players meet. A lost mother, a missing brother, a she-tiger and Blue with the Dirk and Steel group. The mixture of action and emotion will keep you on the edge of your seat.

As a fan of X-Men, I have read Marjorie M. Liu's DARK MIRROR and she brings the same originality, action and adventure into her Dirk & Steele series. I highly recommend reading the other books in the series in order to get the full enjoyment of this story. (TIGER EYE; SHADOW TOUCH; THE RED HEART OF JADE).

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Hard to put down.
This book was so much better than the previous full length novel, The Red Heart of Jade. The chemistry between Blue and Iris is wonderful. The complex situation that is forced on Blue by his father and the circumstances with Iris's mother are beautiful written. This is one of the best book I have read this year.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent!
Blue Perrineau has spent a lifetime escaping the shadow of his ruthless father. As an employee for the Dirk and Steele Detective Agency, Blue has sought to disrupt the flesh peddling by Santoso Rahardjo. A devastating injury and news of his father's death sends him in a different direction, one that lands him at Reilly's Circus. He's in search of his brother, Daniel, but also finds Iris McGillis, a shape shifter. Unfortunately, Blue knows the truth about his father's death and the ramifications of Blue finding Daniel and Iris may be catastrophic.

Marjorie M. Liu weaves a complex tapestry with EYE OF HEAVEN. The details of this intricate tale cleverly unveil themselves as the story progresses. Each book of the Dirk and Steele series is a stand alone but there are some ongoing threads throughout the series. EYE OF HEAVEN is starting to bring some of those threads, along with characters from previous books, together. Marjorie M. Liu provides enough details that new readers will be able to follow along but I would highly recommend reading the other books in the series in order to get a better picture of the machinations of the Consortium.

EYE OF HEAVEN is an excellent blend of fantasy, the paranormal, action, and romance! Marjorie M. Liu carefully builds up the tension to the grand finale, leaving the reader breathless with anticipation as each page is turned. While I have enjoyed each installment of the Dirk and Steele series, EYE OF HEAVEN returns to the style I fell in love with in TIGER EYE. EYE OF HEAVEN is easily recommended!

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Good followup
I like this one but not as much as the ones before. The story got a little bogged down for my taste, however I love the series and look forward a new one.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - The best shifting descriptions I've ever read
I loved this book. The author's descriptions of the shapeshifting process are the best I've ever read and I have read EVERY book about shapeshifters I could lay my hands on. The story is completely unpredictable and I cared so much for both the main characters and the supporting characters I could not lay it down until the end. I dearly hope there is a sequel because I am not at all finished with these characters!
