| Entertaining with lots of action and a style very much in keeping with the Sherlock Holmes canon even though Enola is not part of the tradition. She is, however, very much like her much older brother in her deductive skills and her risk-taking. This ...more | |

| I'm always amazed how Hoyt manages to find or construct legends or tales to suit her stories. This one employs a version of the Cupid and Psyche story as a backdrop for this Beauty-and-the-Beast story. Edward isn't really a beast but he is disfigured ...more | |

“You pathetic humans! It escapes me how you endure any trial long enough even to breed, yet here you are. And why do your kind persist at all? Because every now and then—once a century, perhaps—ONE of you understands this: Death is what you accept only when you have spent all that you are—to the very last drop of your sweat and blood—in order to save what you love. That, son of Koronolan, is what a hero, a true warrior, would do.”
