Product Description |
Hailed as "sultry [and] spine-tingling" (Publishers Weekly) and "intense, sensual, and mesmerizing" (Library Journal), Shadow Game plunged readers into a world of terrifying power and forbidden passion. Now, New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan returns to that exciting world to give us her most breathtaking novel yet.
Dahlia LeBlanc's gifts are also a curse, making it impossible for her to be around others without hurting them. But can she trust her secrets to Nicolas Trevane, a Shadow warrior sent to find her? |

Been there, read that |
A basic problem in writing romance series books is that, after the characters are hooked up and presumed to live Happily Ever After, the author doesn't have much more to say about them. So how do you write a sequel?
Feehan has adopted a popular, if inadequate, response to this problem. After hooking up Lily Whitney and Ryland Miller in the first of the Ghostwalker series, she changes her characters' names to Dahlia Le Blanc and Nicolas Trevane, changes the setting from San Francisco to New Orleans, and tells the exact same story over again.
The retelling is a bit forced. After a fairly good villain in the first installment, the main villain here shows up only long enough to get captured. Some of the plot twists are really never explained. And the prose style throughout reads like the work of someone who's publishing several novels a year, which Feehan is now doing, and doesn't have the time to express herself in a fresh, cliche-free style.
I can't really recommend this except for hard core fans. The first and third books in this series are both somewhat better. |

Better than the first |

This is the second book in the series and I found it more compelling than Shadow Game the first of the series. The strong, silent Nico and troubled Dahlia make a great team. We learn a lot more in this book about the creation of the Ghostwalkers, and the unique skills that they each possess. In this second book of the series, Nico rescues Dahlia from hit men sent to kill her in her bayou sanctuary. There is quite a bit of interaction from the other Ghostwalkers, allowing readers to get to know people featured in future books. This book was paced right and a great paranormal read! |

liked her previous series on the Drake sisters and liked the excerpt I'd read. Good combination of suspense romance and paranormal. Alittle too much of the sex scens though. |
