    I loved this whole series. I read the series in a few days. I couldn't put it down. I'm giving the series an overall 5. Book 3 is the weakest, but still good. I'll be watching the author for more fun in the future.

    I like this book very much. The main character is very well drawn. Strong and flawed. The secondary characters give her much of her strength and help to define her flaws. The myth is both obvious and complex. The complexity adds uncertainty to maintain a wide range of paths and outcomes. "Trust no one" is key to the story. There must be balance, so there most also be some or one to trust. Both dedicated friends and family could be untrustworthy; either by design or by the requirements of their environment. The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Hate and love are the same side of the same coin. So also is support and betrayal; hope and fear. The most obvious of enemies may perform the greatest service the clearest of love may be devastating. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" is always false, but might still be a useful tool. This is what adds the complexity and paths to the final outcome. I am waiting eagerly the next installment.

    Love this series. The first book, establishing the context is better than the second. Both are good and compelling.

    Wonderful series. I had to wait between books; otherwise I probably would have read the entire series in on sitting. There may be more in the series, but it may also continue. The first and third are the best. The second is quite good.

    Wonderful series. I had to wait between books; otherwise I probably would have read the entire series in on sitting. There may be more in the series, but it may also continue. The first and third are the best. The second is quite good. I understand the current pricing marketing. A lost leader followed by sold books. I've also bought many books because the cost of any single order is cheaper than two books from Amazon. Still, authors like these deserve better rewards for the quality of their works.

  • Beautiful Sins: Leigha Lowery on Jan. 19, 2012
    star star star star star
    The world view developed in this set of stories is wonderful. The major story lines are great. The supporting short stories and novellas add depth and background. The world is large and broad ranging. The combined myths and number of characters can be daunting. It might be best to keep track of the characters as they develop. Minor characters show up later in the series in greater detail; often later in the book or subsequent books. I read the first two books out of order. Which I think is a better start. The later books should be read in order. The short stories and novellas fit into a number of places. They can be read after the major novels, or between. Careful attention to time lines and characters will be important crossing the books.
