Book 2...Death's Mistress by Karen Chance


Oh I'm whizzing through these books hehe, only 98 to go, (well its 97 really I've read another one I'm just a little slow at posting).

Anyway this is the sequel to Midnights Daughter which follows the exploits of Dhampir Dorina Basarab. I wasn't sure if I had read the first one but after a couple of pages I realised I had and it all came flooding back.

Also that I got Midnight's Daughter for Xmas last year from my mum as well as the first Keri Arthur. Well I thought it was a bit strange.

It's a very easy read, even with a lot of characters and following the twisty story but it keeps flowing and it is easy to follow. But you might want to read the other one first.

Here's the back page for a taste:

"Dorina Basarab is a dhampir - half-human, half-vampire - and the only way she can stay sane is by unleashing her sometimes uncontrollable rage on demons and vampires that deserve killing.

After the fortunate demise of her insane uncle Dracula, Dory is back home in Brooklyn, hopinh that life will calm down for a while. But then two visitors arrive, her friend Claire, asking for Dory's help in finding a magical Fey relic, and the gorgeous master-vampire Louis-Cesare, desperate to find his former mistree, a vampire named Christine.

Dory and Louis-Cesare soon discover their problems may be connected: the same master-vampire Christine is bound to is also rumoured to be in possession of the relic. But they soon realize there's more at stake when Christine's master turns up dead. Someone is killing vampire Senate members, and if Dory and Louis-Cesare can't stop the murder, they may be next...
