My Opinion:
There are six stories to be sampled in this book. Out of the six, half disinterest me, the other half I'm keen on reading.
After reading Burning Up earlier this month, I was a new fan of Meljean Brook. She is one of the authors in the sampler. Ironically with the book next in line in the series that I read in Burning Up. So I was pleasantly surprised.
Let me break down the six for you, real quick:
1. Stormwalker - Allyson James; Wasn't a fan of what I read.
2. Night Myst - Yasmine Galenorn; This is everything I could hope for in a paranormal story! Can't wait to read it!
3. Siren's Call - Devyn Quinn; I liked the premise, but wasn't sold on the story.
4. Blood on Silk - Marie Traenor; I wanted so much more from this, though the steam factor is a ten! Not a favorite though.
5. The Iron Duke - Meljean Brook; I previously mentioned my love of finding this here so you know I was keen to read even a sample. It didn't disappoint either. I will add, surprisingly not my #1 out of these six.
6. Eternal Hunger - Laura Wright; I think they saved the best for last. Was my favorite pick out of the sampler.
So there you have it. The bold ones I liked and want to read. But all-in-all was a nice sample of paranormal activity!

3.5/5

  1. We obviously have very different tastes in books :) Though the cover looks interesting. What is her tattoo, can't really tell.

  2. Sounds nice. I never really read samplers before. Is it like an anthology?

  4. An interesting concept, I've never heard of a sampler like this either. It would be a good way to get a sneak peek before buying.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
