Actually,I totally enjoyed Unbound Pleasure. Yes, the premise is similar but really, arent they all? I enjoye JR Ward, Gena Showalter, Sherrilyn Kenyon and now Anna Windsor and Larissa Ione. To be quite honest the premises are all similar. I commend each author for trying to put a new spin on a pretty old tail. I say bring it on for more Larissa Ione - it was worth the buy - I give this book a B+

I’m one of the people who gave this book one of the aforementioned 5-star Amazon reviewers because initially I really enjoyed it and found the story really original. After letting it sink in, though, I’m more apt to give it 4 stars because I keep remembering things that bother me. And that’s the problem with Amazon, once you review, you’re locked in… still, I’m looking forward to the rest of the books in this series, even though this one did wrap up a little prettily.

I was actually wondering about the Anna Windsor books. We didn’t receive any copies here at DA for review but I saw them mentioned elsewhere and I admit the “A Novel of the Dark Crescent Sisterhood” tagline turned me off. I do still like the Black Dagger Brotherhood books despite all their flaws, but I am a little tired of that particular set up.

I thought this was a great read – it was one of 3 paranormals that I really enjoyed when I was on vacation.

This probably would get a B rating from me and the other 2 books I read “Sea Witch” by Virginia Kantra and “Bound by Shadow” by Anna Windsor would get an A-/B+ and an A respectively.

“Bound by Shadow” is a kick-ass woman version of Ward’s Black Brotherhood without all the weird spellings, repetitive phrases and weak heroines. I almost didn’t buy the book because on the front cover it said “A Novel of the Dark Crescent Sisterhood” and I thought “oh, no…it’s another Ward rip-off”. Instead I was delightfully surprised by how wonderfully rich and textured the story was without all the crap (excuse me chrap) of Ward’s Brotherhood.

I enjoyed this book and would have given it a B. I thought the money was well spent, but that is because I don’t think that every book has to be the best thing I have ever read. Those kinds of books are few and far between.

I thought this was a decent urban fantasy romp, worth my time and money and I look forward to the next book about Shade, the 2nd brother.

KMont: I have an unholy love for that movie. It’s awful but I can’t help it. If it’s on TV, I must watch it. The same goes for the first Conan the Barbarian movie.

Aw man, now you’ve gone and done it. Now I have a sick, raging, all-out yearning to watch the campy, star-studded, red-hair-infused fantasy cluster f**k that is Red Sonja. My gosh it’s been years. How am I going to get the DH to watch THAT? Oh wait, there is ‘ole Red with her super short leather duds. DH bait, check.

I just happened to pick this up today, opened it up and am already a bit confuzzle-huhed? over the first chapter. Only time and late-night binge reading will tell if the fog will clear. I picked it up because the premise sounded promising. Again, we shall see. Thanks for your review. It’s always good to read opposing viewpoints on a book.

Well I for one loved the book. It was excellent. I can’t wait for the second & third books to come out.

I was suspicious of all the five star reviews on Amazon when this showed up in my recommended books. Then there was the Discussion created so some of the reviewers could repeat their raves.

From your review I am glad I trusted my instincts and did not buy. Thank you.
