Ce commentaire est de: Shadower (Mass Market Paperback)
Captain Moriah Cameron was trying to find her contact in the bar when all hades broke loose! The last thing she wanted was to be "rescued" by Sabin Travers! Worse, he was a Shadower, a type of bounty hunter that worked for the Controllers! Moriah had an illegal shipment of iridon to deliver, FAST! She also had to find her sister, Celie. But Moriah had to be careful or end up becoming Sabin's next captive to be turned in for bounty, and the Controllers would kill her on sight for more than one reason! Sabin had no idea what possessed him to grab the ill tempered woman and get off world! When she stranded him and hijacked his ship, he thought he would kill her! Instead, he found himself attracted to her. But she and her sister had been given to Pax as a payment by their father long ago. After years of abuse, she was not about to trust men. He would have to treat her with kid gloves. ***** This one is an exciting romp through space with a feisty female and a hardened bounty hunter! This one will keep readers GLUED to the pages until all is over. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED READING! ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.

Disappointing entry in series., Oct 24 2002

This review is kind of hard for me to write since I spent quite a while finding a used copy of this book since it seems to be out of print. I genuinely enjoyed Shielder and Shamara but Shadower was just not up to par with the other two books in the series. While Sabin seemed true to his character portrayal in the other two books, Moriah came off so wrong that I just about stopped reading half way through because I just couldn't get over how whiney and narrow-minded Moriah was and how she just automatically assumed the worst about Sabin every single time as compared to the fun-loving and strong woman she was in the other two books. Yes, bad things had happened to her in her life and she would have been traumatized but for someone to continue to live in the past like she was just didn't appeal at all. Sabin went out of his way to be good and kind to her, especially after he found out what had happened and Moriah just kept coming off with her nasty attitude and erroneous assumptions even though all evidence to the contrary did not support her ideas. I will continue to read Ms. Spangler's books because I enjoyed her other ones but if this had been the first book by her I had ever read I would never have read another. If you want to read the entire series, then by all means find a copy of this book and read it to satisfy your curiosity about the back story to Sabin and Moriah, but just don't expect Moriah to be like the character portrayed in Shielder and Shamara.

A Good Book, Aug 26 2001

I just finished reading SHADOWER and I found that is a very good story. I didn't give it five stars because I think that the plot could have been a little bit better with more depth in the secondary characters. It was a little slow in the begining but speed up after that. The plot was set up so that you could really see something like this happening. The story of the Shielders reminded me somewhat of what happened to the Jewish people during World War II. All in all it is a good story that left several ideas for sequels.
