My ramblings about books (especially Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Urban Fantasy), computers, gadgets, TV-stuff and movies
I have quite enjoyed Faith Hunter’s Jane Yellowrock series so I had some hopes that I would like this one as well. Well, it is not at all a bad book. The writing is as good as one has come to expect from this author. Unfortunately I found the story to not really be my cup of tea.
I was not too impressed by the first book in this series, mainly because of the main protagonist being an arsy, whiny brat. In this book she has indeed improved somewhat but I am afraid that it didn’t help that much.
I have to say that after having read the first book in the series I was really hoping to like this one…and I did!
Well, this series is not actually new any more but for me when I started to read this book, the first one in the series, it was new. After having finished the last page I could not help but think, finally a good new urban fantasy series.
Back to this book, it is the natural continuation of the first book in the series although, true to books in any of the Kurtherian series, the stakes are upped as we go. It has the same bantering, ass-kicking etc. etc. as we are used to.
I think the overall story is not too bad and I do, generally, like a kick ass foul tongued heroin but… the heroin in this case is really way to much of an arsy, whining brat towards everyone that comes close to her, friend or foe alike.
Vigilante is yet another book series in the Kurtherian universe created by Michael Anderle. I have to say that, when reading this book, I was wondering whether I was not getting a bit of Kurtherian fatigue.
