I love this book!,
By Lilith Icewitch (Philadelphia, PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sorceress & the Savage (Mass Market Paperback)
It's not often that I come across a romance that is actually unique. This author did a wonderful job blending together fantasy and romance. The story is original and the characters are likeable... The heroine is strong yet retains her femininity. The hero is sweet without compromising is alpha male status.I am so tired of the typical romance heros and heroines that bicker through 90% of the novel and keep themselves apart for no reason other than pure stubborness. These two are honest with themselves from the beginning, their reasons for having to be apart are understandable and realistic.There were only three things that I did not like about this novel:1.The hero was annoyingly dense at some parts, I just wanted to reach into the book and smack him upside the head. :)2. The action scenes weren't exciting enough, but that has been a problem with every romance I've read that has action. 3. There weren't enough love scenes. This author did a great job writing the initial love scene, it was erotic and romantic. I got the impression while reading this that she was afraid of overdoing the lovemaking scene descriptions, far too many romance writers do this. But aren't these scenes the main reason for reading this genre? (Unless of course you are a fan of the Regency subgenre, which I am not)Still, this book deserves 5 stars. I highly recommend it if you are looking for something a little bit different.

Tedious reading,
This review is from: The Sorceress & the Savage (Mass Market Paperback)
I found this to be a tough read. I normally enjoy reading about primitive heros, but normally a romance author will portray them as somehow more civilized and honorable than the outwardly civilized villains. Gar, the hero in this story, was boring, and the character epiphany I kept expecting never materialized. He never seemed like a fully fleshed-out human being to me. The heroine annoyed me as well. All in all, it was a struggle to finish. I skim-read the last third of the book and heaved a sigh of relief when I was done.

I'm disappointed,
By Discord (Zion) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sorceress & the Savage (Mass Market Paperback)
Don't get me wrong. Saranne Dawson has written some good books in the Romance/Fantasy sub-genre. The ideas are mostly original and intriguing. I've bought some of her books on the promise of the idea alone. This book though, just does not appeal to me. I'm 50% done and slugging through the rest. I'm a huge fan of the Romance and Fantasy genre, but for the romance to work, the reader has to care for the hero and heroine. To put it bluntly, if the enemy did them both in, I won't shed a tear. I give it a 3, because it did hold my interest for a while and the great cover. Ms Dawson can do much better than this.
