I purchased The Sigma Menace box set on sale and it was definitely worth the price however my biggest complaint is the amount of typos. This is not a new series (I think that the first book was written in 2014) so that is more than enough time to proofread the books multiple times and clean up the spelling errors. This box set contains 5 stories in the series and one novella and I read them all so that's a lot of typos to sift through. Authors need to take the time to put out professional work if they want to be treated as professionals because part of the time I felt like a high school English teacher correcting a student's work. The whole reason to read a story is to get lost in it not fix it. This is why I have given this series a 3* rating which is average. The books are an interesting paranormal series but I recommend that you begin with Fever Claim which is currently free. The series deals with vampires, lycans and humans all trying to coexist when there are forces (Sigma) trying to destroy and rule over them. Each book features a couple however, characters will continue throughout the series. There's some heat, violence, suspense and everything else that you would expect in a paranormal romance. The writing was good and kept me engaged but it wasn't the best romantic suspense series that I have read and it wasn't the worst. It was good and could be better if the author cleaned it up a bit.

This collection includes:
#1 Fever Claim - Operation: Absolutely Screwed
#2 Primal Claim - Operation: Save The Mother and my Child
#3 True Claim - Operation: Save The Hybrid
#3.5 Reclaim - Operation: Win My Mate Back
#4 Lawful Claim - Operation: Saving The Family I Left Behind
#5 Pure Claim - Operation: Save My Mate And Kill Madame G
Each romance shifter novel can be read as a stand alone, also I think you`ll enjoy it more when you start with book one (Fever Claim) of this series. The love story is self-contained, but the background story and Agent X`s story build up from book to book.
Actually, I just wanted to read into book # 1 to meet a new author. - Two weeks later I had finished the whole series. LOL

Great Series
Really a 4.5 star rating, the last book was more introspective with less action.
Overall this series was action packed. It was cool watching the shifters develop their humanity and find their mates. Through the first four books we get teasers about Rhys and his possible mate. It was a long difficult road to get his mate. He had the patience of a saint and a focus that got him through it without going feral. I appreciated the novella Reclaim. We finally got to find out Master Bellamy and Irina's story and see them reconnect.
I may have to dive into the spinoff series.

All around good stories
This collection is action packed and sensual. The love scenes are erotic. The stories are neither too long nor too short. No proofreading mistakes (okay, maybe 1 in the whole set)! Get ready to be entertained and excited.

Awesome!!
I've finished the boxset. It didn't really take that long to go through each book. But I have to say, it's been a very long time since I've read a series that's as good. PNR is my jam, but after a while it seems to be on repeat. But not this one! It was a well written, and thought out vampire/shifter series. I have to read more. After I read Demetrius, I realized I had to backtrack. It was so worth the time.

I was happily surprised how the story hooked me into this world. The steamier portions started to repeat eachother quite quickly but by then I was already invested in the bigger picture.

Awesome series!!!
This is an awesome series!! Once I got started, I could not put it down!! I read all 5 books all the way straight through. Imo, that's the best way to go with a series. Binge read it!!! Starting now on the spinoff series, Pale Moonlight. Then on to the Vampire Disorder series. Other than some typos, which are distracting to me, I have only good things to say. I realize this series is a little older, but it's still amazing..... I'm so glad I found myself a new "must read" author!!!

Complete series
This is a 5 book complete series of a primarily shifter romance, with some vampire/hybrid overlaps. The books are interrelated, so nice that this has all of them to make east to read in order. Good world-building, multi-faceted characters, and hot scenes. Heavy on adventure/explosions/fighting, as main focus is ona group of shifter warriors called Guardians, and the evil Sigma group they are fighting against. Trigger warning: there is some reference to sexual abuse and torture, bit not graphically detailed.
