I really enjoyed this book. Although, I was a little confused by some of the character references since I've only read a few of her short stories, I truly enjoyed this book. M'Cal and Kitala were not the typical romance novel characters. I appreciate the dark side of the romance that developed between them. If you are new to Marjorie M. Lui, you may want to read a few of her other Dirk & Steele titles before this one, or you may feel a little lost. I also think this book could have been a little longer to take time and develope the story involving Kitala's grandmother, and M'Cal's father. There is a missing link there. If you like your romance with some sharp edges, then this book delivers. I wasn't sure until the end if they were going to make it through. I read it all in one night and couldn't put it down.

Having read several of the earlier books and been intrigued with the tensions of good/evil and who are the bad guys really..., and the gradual development of a romantic bond between the two main characters i found this book vastly disappointing. If you were to rip out the pages of lubricious activity (which goes on and on and on and...gets repetitive) and "soul searching" this book would be about 1/3 as long as it appears.
Heck. Certainly in the earlier books there was a lot of yearning and mental speculation between hero and heroine, and the usual "suspicion" still there was more of a plot, action, adventure, movement of the story. And wow...condoms. This book seems more a vehicle for mechanical and formulaic erotic fantasy, and an endeavor to channel Laurell Hamilton that gets in the way.

I had to really work hard to make myself put this book down. This book started on a rollercoaster high and kept speeding up from there. Even from the beginning this book vibrated with tension and the author kept turning it up. The main characters Kitala and M'cal are so hot together I can see the smoke pouring off of them. I was really creeped out by the Ivan character and he reminded me of all the bogeyman stories I was told growing up. The main witch of the story surprised me with her turn around from being throughly evil to becoming a victim as well as the others that are in this book. Jazz Marie was very strong character as well. Seems like being dead has only made her a stronger voodoo priestess. Marjorie M. Liu is a fantastic author and i thoroughly recommend her to anyon that likes paranormal themes in their books.

I found this book to be a let down after the others in the series I have read. The characters, when not just plain boring, seem to make endlessly stupid decisions to run headlong into to danger. Nobody has any lasting emotional damage though torture and rape run amok though out the book. The ending was ridiculously upbeat for such a dark story, as it seems no one had any hard feelings about said torture and rape. This book was so bad that I no longer read anything by this author.

I absolutely loved this book! The story was well rounded, fast paced, and interesting. The hero and heroine had a chemistry that practically jumped off the page right from the beginning. I also loved the fact that it was interracial love between a mixed heroine and a white hero. I found it to be sooooooo beautiful and wish there were many more romances that were colour blind!!! M'cal is a strong sensitive hero with a huge heart and Kitala is such a unique and brave heroine. At the end of the book I found myself not wanting to leave them behind. This book is most certainly going to join the rest of my 'keepers'. All I can say is that Ms. Liu is one amazingly talented author who's work I will be buying more of from now on!
