Four Emperors #2
Three Warlords
The sexy supernatural saga that began with FOUR EMPERORS continues with Evan Allen’s spicy, high-spirited THREE WARLORDS.
Eight months ago, reckless young detective Alex Lin first crossed paths with the Four Emperors, a quartet of reincarnated super-powered siblings from ancient China. After finding the love of his life in Daniel Bitter, a moody and mysterious restaurateur with the ability to control the wind, Alex settles down and reforms his notorious party-boy ways. When Daniel dumps him without warning and vanishes, a heartbroken Alex once again finds himself menaced by three sleazy, duplicitous warlords with long-standing grudges against Daniel. While Alex races to find Daniel, more ancient enemies begin to surface as events that were set in motion two thousand years ago come to a head in modern-day Seattle… and Alex is right in the center of all the chaos.

Well, that was an unexpected twist near the end!! Now have to wait for the next instalment.

Fast-paced sequel to Four Emperors, an urban gay fantasy/mystery set in Seattle. This book has many of the same ingredients that I enjoyed from the first book in the series: fluid prose, a likable biracial main character, lots of Chinese fantasy and folklore, vivid action scenes, familiar Seattle locations, and plenty of gay sex. Allen doesn't provide a summary of the events of the first book, so I strongly suggest reading Four Emperors before picking this one up. There isn't much sleuthing by Alex Lin this time around, but there's a nice twist at the end. Look forward to Allen's conclusion to the trilogy.

Gah. I don't know why I do this to myself. Start reading a series, get completely sucked in by it's awesomeness, get to the last published book. And then. That is when I realize it was written five years ago and ends on a cliffhanger, and it appears the author has abandoned the series.
This is my biggest reading pet peeve. So frustrating and such a letdown. Especially when it is a unique and well-written series like this one.

Def not as good as the first book. There’s so much like ... penetrative sex and not as much lead up. Alex is much of a slut as ever, everyone’s drawn to him, its like a harem. Doesn’t explain much. I hated how he kept throwing himself into trouble when everyone’s trying to keep him self. Could be better. Too bad there’s no 3rd book yet
