Angel's Wolf, Nalini Singh: I've read several novellas in the Guild Hunter world, plus the first novel and I think this story may have convinced me to put the rest of them on my TBR list. Adding cute cats (sob!) didn't hurt either.Nocturne, Sharon Shin: I hadn't read anything of hers before but was very impressed and intrigued with the world created here. Having a "heavenly" being be disabled and not able to see put the hero and heroine on a much more even footing. The whole story was lovely and nicely paced. Ascension, Meljean Brook: This is only the second story in the Guardian world that I've read, but both have been in anthologies with stories from Singh's Guild Hunter universe and I always get details of the two mixed up. I feel like I would have understood more if I'd read previous books, but it was a good story. I just couldn't picture the heroine as being blue all the time though!Alphas:Origins, Ilona Andrews: I liked the conceit of this world and the fact that not everything is shinyhappypretty. The heroine has to make some seriously tough choices and there are high-stakes consequences to her decisions. I would like to read more in this world (much like their Kinsman duo) but I don't think that Andrews is likely to write more, sadly. I only read Nalini Singh's Guild Hunter (#3.5) story "Angel's Wolf" so far. I tend to dislike angel stories but after two friends rec'd Singh's books, I decided to check her out. Im quite impressed with the writing; her intriguing characters, pacing, and overall world/alternate universe, what have you...it sucked me in even though this novella was just a peek into the series. I hope to read the other stories in this anthology, but for now Ill rate and mark this as read.
What do You think about Angels Of Darkness (2011)?
Ilona Andrews's story was the only one I read. The actual rating is 3.5.
