This weekend I finished Kimberly Frost’s ALL THAT FALLS, the second in her Etherlin series. I liked the first, ALL THAT BLEEDS, a
lot. With the second, I’m totally hooked. In Ms. Frosts' world the
descendants of the ancient muses live in a glittering community in the Colorado
Rockies called the Etherlin, while beyond the wall live humans
and vendala, human-vampire hybrids who crave muse blood. Here are excerpts from
the cover blurbs:
ALL THAT BLEEDS
Alissa North is inspiration made flesh, so she should never
have met Merrick, a deadly half-vampire enforcer, but when they do meet, the
connection is instantaneous, and an illicit flirtation is born. The
long-distance friendship was never supposed to go any farther. But when she is
kidnapped and thrown briefly into his world, everything changes.
ALL THAT FALLS
As his muse, Cerise propelled her musician
boyfriend to the heights of fame, but when he died under mysterious
circumstances her powers vanished. Now she’s plagued by disturbing half-formed
memories of his final night…until she meets the fallen archangel Lysander who
seems to hold the key to restoring her memories and abilities.
I love the world Kimber’s created—the magical Etherlin which
is too good to be true and the violent Varden where Merrick and Lysander
live—and the characters who go against their natures to connect with each
other. These beings are larger than life and yet very human in their capacity
for love and loyalty. The villains are deliciously evil, the heroes heroic and
flawed, and the action is fast paced, epic and addictive. If you enjoy
paranormal romance, you’ll love this series! I certainly do.
Anyone have any book recommendations this week? I'm headed to RWA and would love to pick up signed copies at the 2012 "Readers for Life" Literacy Autographing in Wednesday. Details here.
