Another wonderful episode in the Dory saga. I love how much pressure the author continually puts on her leading lady and on pretty much anyone who comes within her personal sphere of effect. It’s amazing how characters can reveal their most hidden depths under that kind of torment and it creates a wonderfully deep emotional backing track to go along with the chaos and excitement of the main plot. Definitely doesn’t disappoint!! ( )
Fury’s Kiss is my favorite Dory novel! We get to learn so much about her human and vampire halves and how Mircea separated them when she was a little girl. Dory and Louis-Cesare’s relationship goes through some turbulence but I love their ending scene. Dory is so strong and independent. It’s fantastic seeing her get the recognition she deserves. ( )
An absolutely fantastic read. Just when I think Karen cannot possibly make the story any better, she surpasses herself again. This latest instalment in Dory’s series is so chock full of twists, turns, adventure, danger (and of course epic characters with funny quips) and so much more I just couldn’t put it down. ( )
