Casanova
Eighty million cats are owned in the United States. Most are introduced to homes without a seconds thought. Most come from friends and family. Others are found and adopted with little thought of where they come from. Cats in turn love their new homes but a rare few will not bend to the will of others. Amazon bestselling author Edward Medina now introduces you to the story of one such cat.
Raised by a gypsy, adopted by a broken couple, and driven by the light of the moon, Casanova is a cat with dreams and desires. He craves his freedom, longs for escape, and is willing to kill to achieve his goals. Set in New York City and the Upstate New York towns of Woodstock, Accord, and Sleepy Hollow this dark horror follows Casanova on his journey to return home and fulfill his destiny.

Casanova is a tale of an entirely different kind. Set around the author's native New York, Casanova paints a portrait of deadly consequences, showing that anything is possible when the moon is right.
My favorite part was Mr. Medina's crisp and concise style, forever pushing the action forward and causing me to finish the story within hours of starting it. I highly recommend this tale to lovers of a good scary story, with a dash of horror and a bit of the supernatural.
I received a free copy of Casanova in exchange for a fair review.

Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Very quick read with cool and unique twists. The only downside is I have lost all of the trust I have had with my cats...

Edward Medina's ability to weave the fabric of his character's world is second d to none. In "Casanova" we see how our relationship with our furry, feline friends may not be as simple as we think. Casanova shows us the intelligence of the Hunter living in these semi-domesticated creatures. We learn how good intentions and cruelty are sometimes the same thing. We also learn how believing in one's superiority could lead to destruction. As someone who took a black, feral New York City kitten off the streets, "Casanova" has led me to view my little Hunter in a new light. I was thrilled, I was challenged, and I was more than a little terrified. This a must read for anyone who thinks they understand their pet.

A cat bent on revenge, with murder in his heart. Very strange premise for a story, but made a somewhat interesting read. I don't quite know what to think, honestly.
