Monster

Synopsis: Shade is pushed by her mentor, Hazel, to take a case that brings in people she likes, including cops and werewolves. She has to decide if she can actually mete out justice to people she likes.
Review: This is a thought provoking story about justice versus friendship.

I really, really enjoyed this book. Great continuation with the characters, especially with knowing more about Shade and her possible back story that I hope comes out in book 3. Lots of new characters (which I enjoyed) but the characters in book 1 do make slight appearances throughout the book. I am a big fan of shifters and I love how they are portrayed in this book. I'm glad that there was a lot of urban fantasy with magic, a great muurrddeerr mystery and no romance. Not that I mind romance, but I was happy it didn't come into play in this book as I wanted the character buildups, not sexual buildups :)

You can still enjoy this book without reading book 1 but you'll just miss some depth to the side characters/encounters that Shade deals show more with. I highly recommend this book and this author. Good for mature young adults and older. show less
