A Hero's Death #1 - Great Book! A well written, intriguing suspense with a well thought out plot and developed characters. This book reminds me a lot of the Dresden Files; no, the author wrote something completely different, but the way DF evolves into a continuous story. No, Ardis is not a witch/warlock, I grew up in time when females were the witches, but he's stronger than any human because of his father's genes. Hard to describe without doing spoilers. This book has substance, intelligence and immerses the reader into a twisting tale, full of vivid descriptions, that can't be put down until it's finished. 5*
A Monster's Birth #2 - A well written, intriguing suspense with strong descriptions painting vivid pictures as the story unfolds. The characters and dialog are realistic, and the plot keeps the reader immersed until the end. This book is like AHD containing substance and intelligence. 5*
A Champion's Fight #3 - What a rollercoaster ride! Awesome! The action never slows down nor does the pace. This is probably the best of the three books so far, but the other two were awesome, too. I couldn't put the book down, but took my time reading it, savoring it. This is a well written and thought out story. The characters, man, you just hate them, but the good ones are tough. There old and new characters, most are believable, realistic for that world, and the emotions they extract from the reader just run the gamut.
While romantic love took the rear seat on the bus, the hate, anger, evilness, fear and all the negative emotions run rampant. There is love but it's for the humans, along with determination. The reader has to get involved with the story. Ms. McClellan does a fab job with her lucid, vivid descriptions; every once in awhile I felt the pain. This is a must read series, and in order to get the best thrill and excitement, and I can't wait to see what's next from this richly articulate, creative author. I contacted the author to review her books. 5*
The Devil's Fool #1 - Intriguingly dark. A well written suspense with several interesting characters and an intriguing plot. This is my first book by this author and since I didn't know what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised by the story. I couldn't stop reading until I finished the book; the more into the story, the more mesmerizing. Cliffhanger, there's three more books. 5*
The Devil's Angel #2 - Intriguingly darker. A well written, fast paced suspense with more interesting characters with a twisting, intriguing plot. I am confused why such a powerful witch would weaken so much after using her magic. This is still a substantial series, unlike Twilight, more like The Dresden Files. I couldn't put this book down, either, and hated that it's a cliffhanger, two more books. 5*
