Dear Ms. Diver: I’ll admit that I was a little skeptical when I picked up Bad Blood from the Samhain Publishing table at this year’s Author’s After Dark. It looked well and good, from the cover, though I debated whether or not it was really my cup of tea. I will ... more >

REVIEW: Deadshifted by Cassie Alexander

AngieA- ReviewsEdie Spence / nurse / Shapeshifter / Urban-Fantasy8 Comments

Dear Ms. Alexander: I am a confirmed fan of your Edie Spence series. I got in on the ground floor and have thoroughly enjoyed watching Edie negotiate the near constant threats of her world, sometimes with exasperation, sometimes with blind terror, but always with a sort of scrappy determination I ... more >
