Wonderfully different and absorbing.,
This review is from: Falcons Fire (Paperback)
I like it that this isn't another wimpy romance story. Both Martine and Thorne had to face several challenges which made them stronger and better people.

A road less travelled. . .,
By A Customer
This review is from: Falcons Fire (Paperback)
I found this to be a very interesting book. For a romance it didn't really get to me on an emotional level all that often, but I have to admit that despite all of the years I've been a romance novel addict, I've never read one quite like this one. Ryan gets bonus points for originality and chosing to take her plot down roads less travelled. It wasn't emotionally gripping for me, but I was impressed by the writer's ingenuity. Still I have to confess I found Ryan's Secret Thunder more emotionally satisgying.

Patricia Ryan is one of the best!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Falcons Fire (Paperback)
I really enjoyed Falcon's Fire, one of Patricia Ryan's first books. The main characters, Martine and Thorne, are warm and believable. Their love is consummated about midway through the book - Ryan does not make us suffer till the very end for the physical relationship. The action is non-stop but there is some graphic violence, especially against Martine, so be warned. Falcon's fire is a great introduction to Martine's brother, Rainulf, who is the central character in Heaven's Fire, the next book. So read Falcon's Fire first. (I'm going to re-read Heaven's Fire to see how Martine fits back into the story. I'm sure she does.) My favourite Patricia Ryan novel is Secret Thunder, the story of Luke and Faithe. Luke's brother, Alex, who is a strong secondary character in that one, stars in the latest novel - Wild Wind. You know how you love it when a character you've enjoyed in one book is featured again in the next book? That's what Pat Ryan does and it's wonderful! You don't feel as if you've lost your beloved characters when the book ends. Read and enjoy all her books! (New one due spring 1999) She's one of the all-time GREATS!
