Dear Ms. Andrews, I’m a fan of your Edge series so I was very sad to hear that it’s likely that Steel’s Edge is the last book set in that world. Steel’s Edge begins in the Weird, a fantastical world that mirrors our own, where Lady Charlotte de Ney discovers that her husband Elvei does(…)

My June reading was a mixture of the good and the disappointing. Here’s what I read: A Gentleman Undone by Cecilia Grant I loved Grant’s debut, A Lady Awakened. This is the follow up, about the brother of the heroine from the earlier book, an officer in the Napoleonic Wars who sold his commission and(…)

Dear Ms Andrews, I must confess, I am a fan. You are one of those authors I count on to consistently deliver good stories. The presence of your name on the cover of a book will motivate me to buy what I would otherwise pass. I’m hooked on your Kate Daniels series of Urban Fantasy(…)

Dear Ms. Andrews: Thank you for sending me a complimentary copy of this short story. Because it is short, I admit I don’t have much to say about it. When I was told that this book was connected to another short, “Silent Blade”, it made sense to read it and review it together. I had(…)

Dear Ms. Andrews: Having been a long time reader of series, I’ve come to expect that a series will generally start losing direction or steam or focus around the 5th book or so. Fortunately, this series has not sagged at all and I think it has to do with not only the tight writing, but(…)

Dear Mr. & Ms. Andrews, The changeling William Wolf was introduced to readers in your earlier book, On the Edge. On your website, Mr. Andrews states in that book, William "lost Rose to Declan and did not save the day. This book [Bayou Moon] was his chance to be a hero, to get the girl.(…)

Dear Ms. Andrews: Sometimes as a reader your expectations are shaken, but in a very positive way. My expectations in non romance genre books have been set by popular series like those of Laurell K Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, and Janet Evanovich wherein love matches are hinted at but never resolved or take years and several(…)

Dear Ms. Andrews, On the Edge was the first of your books that I’ve read, but it will not be the last. Rose Drayton and her two young brothers, Jack and Georgie, live in the Edge, an area where two dimensions known as the Weird and the Broken overlap. In the Weird, people have magical(…)

Dear Ms. Andrews: It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of your writing. I was thrilled to beta read Magic Strikes about a year ago. I remember being very impressed by the quality of your manuscript and gave quite a bit of positive feedback. I was happy to discover that the changes made since(…)

Dear Ms. Andrews, When I read your first novel, Magic Bites, I was struck by your fresh worldbuilding. Sometimes I feel like many urban fantasy novels feature similar worldbuilding details. Execution makes all the difference, of course, but because of those similarities, I really appreciate unique worldbuilding when a book presents it to me. That(…)

I saw this book featured on someone’s blog. The short blurb intrigued me and I went to the site and read the excerpt which really intrigued me. I immediately sent off an email to the Ace contact I have and begged for the book. The book was every bit as good as the excerpt promised.(…)
