NIGHT VEIL starts just after NIGHT MYST ends, July 21 2011
By Urban Fantasy Investigations - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Night Veil (Mass Market Paperback)
The reason I picked up book one in the Indigo Court series was because the cover completely jumped out at me and as I was reading thorough the book I could picture Cicely being exactly like the cover portrayed her.
NIGHT VEIL starts just after NIGHT MYST ends. Grieve is pretty much a prisoner and under the control of Myst. Cicely is adjusting to all the things she learned about herself in book one and preparing for battle against Myst. Cicely in NIGHT VEIL finds out who her allies and enemies really are and you will be shocked at the revelations. I have not come across one book of Yasmine's yet that I did not enjoy. The Indigo Court series is mystical, filled with action, and has a great array of characters and creatures. The story flows perfectly through the twists that Yasmine throws at us. So much happened at the end of NIGHT VEIL that I wish I would have waited to read it until it was closer to book 3 coming out because Im dying to know what happens next. If you have been a fan of Yasmine Galenorn's or have read the first book in the Indigo Court Series NIGHT MYST you will not be disappointed in reading NIGHT VEIL and if you have never read anything of Yasmine's go grab book one and jump in.

Minority report... really didn't enjoy it (with spoilers), Feb 9 2012

Normally, I really like Yasmine Galenorn's work. This one doesn't do it for me. Here are a few reasons why.
Cicely is one of the most annoying main characters I have encountered in a long time. She is constantly whining about her need to be with her true love. Okay, there is a good reason for this, which we do find out, but, in the meantime, it just gets dull.
At one point in the book (SPOILERS), a male character hits her. She promptly hits him back, but then the guy becomes an absolute pariah - she constantly brings that up to mention what a bad person he is - but she hit him, TOO! Don't misunderstand me, I think hitting people is wrong, but it should be just as wrong for her as it is for him - that part is ignored. And, of course, everyone further castigates him later on for becoming a traitor. What did they think would happen?
The rest of the book was fine, but meh. Good description, lots of sex, monsters and snow. I don't think I'll do more than glance at future titles to see if Cicely gets to be more likable.

Not one of Yasmine's best, Jan 3 2012

I love love love Yasmine G. I am addicted to her Otherworlds series. This first book was lacking something, more intensity, better storyline. I won't finish the series.
