Set in the same story universe as Saintcrow’s Dante Valentine series, you don’t need to have read any of the previous books to understand what is going on. Set in a post-apocalyptic where supernatural powers are out in the open but discriminated against. Selene is trying to find her brother’s killer. She is a sex witch that has been hiding her talent from the general population. Nikolai is a vampire that has had her under his protection even as she denies it. Sex witches are rare and wanted by many supernaturals to use them. The killer is Nikolai’s creator and Selene has to accept Nikolai’s protection if she wants to survive and avenge her brother. Nikolai is also attracted to Selene but she isn’t but her sex witch powers do betray her. This book also has a short story that talks about the two of them many years after the events in the main part of the book. ( ) Synopsis: Selene is a sexwitch; she and her brother are watched over by Nikolai, the ruler of the vampires of the city. Her brother can astro-project and because of that he can find information that others cannot. When her brother is killed, Selene finds that she has to rely on Nik to extract her revenge. Throughout all of this she doesn't realize that Nik actually loves her and is trying to help her. Review: Interesting story and needs a sequel. Whine, bitch, moan, complain. Occasional sex. What does Nikolai see in Selene, anyway?I finished it. I still have the same opinion, after 19 chapters and an epilogue, as I did after the first five chapters. The first bit was published in the anthology Hotter Than Hell.Selene is an utterly ungrateful bitch who couldn't catch a clue during clue mating season if she stood in a field covered in clue musk. Nikolai healed her with his blood, right? So when he's injured, why doesn't she at least try to do the same? D'oh.Yeah, I'm off Saintcrow. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
Life isn't easy for a sexwitch. Even your own body betrays you. It's bad enough that Selene is partly beholden to Nikolai, the Prime Power of Saint City, but she's got her brother Danny and she's got her job at the college. In the postwar wreckage of an uncertain world, it's pretty much all she's ever allowed herself to want. Then Danny ends up murdered, and Selene finds herself a pawn in a dangerous game. Indentured to a bloodsucking Nichtvren and helpless, told to stop trying to uncover the identity of her brother's killer, Selene has nowhere to turn. If she's a good girl, Nikolai will leave her a little bit of freedom. He'll take care of her, and she'll be safe--if she obeys. But Selene hasn't survived this long by being obedient to her cursed powers, or to the men who buy her time. Her brother was all she had, and now she's ready to borrow, beg, lie, steal or kill--whatever it takes to avenge him. And if Nikolai gets in the way, Selene will use every tool in her arsenal to make him regret it... This special edition also contains the prequel short story Brother's Keeper and the sequel short story Just Ask. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
