REVIEW:
To be honest with you, I’ve never really gotten along with Richelle’s lead character in this series, Eugenie Markham, she’s rude, she’s abrasive and to be honest the type of character with stubbornness that really annoys me as a reader. The fact that this character is a Queen and refuses to even consider a number of outcomes or possible situations leads to an almost prophetic betrayal which to some really won’t come as a shock.
Finally back this up with a lead character that is becoming weaker by the page as she ends up in situations of her own making and it’s a title that may well infuriate rather than please a number of readers. With luck the character will pick up in the final tale in this series but to be honest I think I’ll be sticking to Richelle’s Succubus work which I feel is superior on all levels.
