Bone Magic Casts its Spell on Me, Jan 7 2010
By GeekGyrlFriday com "Justine Greene" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bone Magic (Mass Market Paperback)
I've been a fan of Yasmine Galenorn's works for a long time, so I had high expectations for Bone Magic. The series works its way through sets of trilogies; each book is from the POV of each of the three D'Artigo Sisters - Camille (a witch), Delilah (a werecat) and Menolly (a vampire.) Camille's books fall on the "firsts", as her book was the first in the series, Witchling; and Dragon Wytch was the fourth book. Now, with Bone Magic, Galenorn returns to Camille's POV. Camille is a larger than life, lusty, exciting character, who is half Fey, half Human, and all attitude and magic. This book had a lot to "live up to", when combined with the tensions that have been ramping up as the story has built over the last couple books. Simply put, the book delivers on its promise. There is a lot of action; some story lines that have been pending for a while now, finally resolve and characters return, while opening up some truly intriguing avenues Galenorn will be exploring in the next few books.
The characters feel real, in spite of the fantastical setting and backgrounds of many of the magical characters. The humans hold their own, as well.
Galenorn treats relationships as an adult would and should. The people are living on the edge of a precipice, with the fate of worlds in the balance, so everything is more electric, including their encounters in the bedroom. Readers who don't enjoy realistic, sensual character interaction should consider this, before plunging into the world. I would say, though, that if you're not sure, try Witchling; the story and characters will captivate you. These are not "sex books" set in a paranormal world. These are well written, urban fantasies, that address all the areas "real people" live within - emotionally and physically.
I would caution the reader who has not read the first 6 books, to go back, pick up Witchling, and read the series in order. The world is detailed; the plots are thick; and you'll enjoy all of it much more if you're intimately familiar with al the players and plotlines. For those who are up to date on the Otherworld Series, just know that the Trillian question is addressed (finally!); we learn more about Smoky's Dragon background and his family; Iris' history starts to come into play; and Camille gets something she's wished for, but she may regret it. This book really does run by the "be careful what you wish for" advisory. This creates some truly spectacular run ins, and opens up some very interesting cans of worms that all of them will have to deal with in the next few books.

It was ok...(*spoilers*), Feb 3 2010
By K. Davids "British Brat" - Published on Amazon.com
This series has some great characters within it and the previous books have all been decent. I found that this series was better when Trillian was MIA; however, I do like Trillian's character. I suppose the resulting lack of tension when he returned was a little anticlimactic. Since Trillian is supposed to be her Alpha lover, I would have expected his reaction to have been somewhat more dramatic thereby increasing the turmoil and making this a much more exciting read. I liked learning more about some of the characters in this book, particularly Smoky, but I also found myself getting annoyed with some of the main characters...mainly Delilah and Chase.

eh, I'm done, Jan 16 2010
By D. Wickman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bone Magic (Mass Market Paperback)
I really enjoyed the earlier books. But, it's getting too much like Anita Hill character where sex overshadows the storyline. Not my cup of tea.
The author is of course entitled to write as they desire or feel they are lead. I'll do the same with my purchasing dollars.
Listmania!
