Charm Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Oh yes Its called Dime Store Magic and its by Kelley Armstrong. Its the third in a series, the first two were called Bitten and Stolen. Nice quick, fast paced reads and very entertaining, perfect if you've lost your mojo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think I've avoided these in the past because the rather title of the first, along with the rather cover, put me off... would a non-Meyer fan enjoy them, do you think?

I'm a non-Meyer fan and I LOVE Kelley Armstrong's books - they're MUCH better than the Twilight tosh. I really do think they're at the top end of supernatural fiction, mainly because they're firmly embedded in realism in a way that makes them almost completely believeable, despite being populated by werewolves, vampires, half-demons, witches and sorcerers!

Nicola Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Currently, I'm a man who has murdered a number of people in order to keep the object of my obsessive affection (a vampire) alive. After being caught mid-murder, I've decided to pour acid on my face to avoid identification and kill myself. It hasn't worked and now I'm disfigured.

We've just rescued 170 humans from a mass vampire feeding frenzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
