Review
The amazing world built by Ms. Brooks drew me in but it was the well written plot and entrancing two main characters that kept me there. I could feel Tisana's loneliness and desire to find the one man fated for her. Leo's sexy and sensual prowess was over the top playful but emotional and tender as well. (Natasha Smith Romance Junkies 20080929)
This second in Brooks' Cat Star series once again presents a sexy and fascinating hero. It also introduces a strong heroine with some interesting psychic powers. The animals lend a light and humorous tone, and the ending is nicely blood free. It certainly leaves the reader eager for the next story featuring these captivating aliens. (Susan Mobley The Romantic Times 20081006)

This review is from: Warrior: The Cat Star Chronicles (Mass Market Paperback)
There are these gorgeous Catlike warriors from a distant planet which has been taken over by another planet and all the warriors were sold as slaves. Each separately meets a female from some other galaxy and love ensues. So far, great, but the secret to these guys is they have a spectacular penis which leaks some sort of liquid which tastes really good and causes great orgasms. So you have this guy with a dripping penis. Most women would think STD and reach for the sulfa drugs but the heroine decides to give oral sex a try. This causes her to fall instantly in love and they have lots of sex. He loves her too so all is wonderful. I could not get behind the notion of yuck! Maybe it is just me but it is sort of like wondering what made the first person decide to eat an oyster. Actually oysters do taste terrific but why would someone think, I am going to put that thing in my mouth and see if I like it. No way!

WARRIOR by Cheryl Brooks: B-,
By JenB99 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Warrior: The Cat Star Chronicles (Mass Market Paperback)
Warrior is Ms. Brooks' second installment after Slave (The Cat Star Chronicles), a hilarious and sexy futuristic book that is easily one of my top 10 books of 2008, if not one of my top 5. While Slave is a funny and witty romp through space and strange planets, Warrior feels more like a medieval fantasy novel. Warrior takes place in the same universe as Slave, but I wouldn't exactly consider it a sequel. There are brief mentions of space travel and other worlds, but most of the book takes place in the forest and small kingdoms of the planet Utopia.The hero in Warrior is a Zetithian soldier named Leo. Tisana's former lover, Rafe, drops Leo off at Tisana's doorstep, beaten unconscious. Rafe gives the witch Tisana one month to heal Leo, and then he will once more belong to Rafe as his household slave. Leo heals much more quickly than expected. As he is Zetithian, he is irresistible to women (let's just say he has special sexual abilities). Tisana is no exception, and the suddenness and intensity of her attraction to Leo catches her by surprise. Rafe comes back a few days later to tell Tisana that his sons have been kidnapped. He needs Leo's fighting skills and Tisana's magic to find the boys, and they set off on a long and dangerous journey. About 2/3 of the book consists of this journey through the woods. They meet several obstacles, including men that have been sent to kill them. Tisana learns some interesting things about Rafe's family along the way. I don't care much for medievals, so I must admit I was slightly disappointed in Warrior, especially since I read it so soon after Slave. However, it does have its good points. Leo, while not as interesting and dynamic a hero as Cat from Slave, is very strong and well suited for Tisana. He also has a great sense of humor. Tisana is a good heroine. She's less stubborn than Jacinth was in Slave, and more feminine. I loved reading her internal thoughts. One of her powers is the ability to speak to animals, and her conversations with the horses and birds and the squirrel named Gerald are priceless. I know talking animals aren't for everyone, but those scenes really redeemed the book for me. They give the book more of a fantasy feel and keep it from being a bland medieval road romance. Though Warrior is really nothing like Slave, Ms. Brooks' style still manages to shine through. Her writing style is light, fun, and easily keeps my interest. Elements that would be major turning points in other books are less significant in Ms. Brooks' work, and she chooses to make less important issues her central focus. It's actually a pretty cool technique, because it kept me guessing without being too vague or irritating. Though the last chapter and epilogue have a couple of references to Slave, Warrior really stands alone. There is very little mention of space travel and other worlds, and though Leo is said to be from another planet, there's really no mystery surrounding his origin as there is in Slave. I wouldn't have been a bit lost if I'd read Warrior first. In fact, I might have enjoyed it more that way. The epilogue of Warrior could almost act as a teaser for Slave as a prequel. If I hadn't read Slave first and measured Warrior by the high standards that Ms. Brooks set in that first fantastic book, I think I would have enjoyed it more. But even despite its flaws, Warrior is a fun book and a light, quick read. It was interesting to the end, and Ms. Brooks' writing kept me wanting to know what happened next. Readers looking for a funny space adventure might prefer to read Slave instead, but fans of medieval fantasy romance should be satisfied with this fun bit of fluff. Overall, a cute B- read. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful

This review is from: Warrior: The Cat Star Chronicles (Mass Market Paperback)
Warrior: The Cat Star Chronicles by Cheryl Brooks has got to be one of the most sensually imaginative books that I've ever read and it gives us an entirely new meaning to the words, "Tongue tantalizing, lip smacking, finger licking good". Whew! You gals want a hot book, well go no further because this one will sizzle your panties right off.Tisana is a witch of rare talents. Her main talent though is healing and as with all healers they are a gentle sort who take care of anyone who might land upon their doorstep. Even gentle as she is, Tisana can still flay the skin off your back with words as sharp as razors that roll off her wicked tongue when you tick her off. For the most part though she is smart, sensitive, intelligent and oh so lonely. Leo is the name that Tisana has given him since his true name is much to hard to pronounce. He is an off worlder as they call anyone not of their planet but an off worlder with talents that would make even the most virile of men weep with envy. Extraordinarily beautiful almost to perfection, he purrs like a kitten when stroked and fights like a tiger when provoked. With eyes of a cat and curiosity to match, Leo is much more than what he seems to be. Our story starts out with Leo being almost dead and dropped at Tisana's cottage by his owner and master Rafe who just happens to be Tisana's ex. Rafe gives Tisana thirty days to heal Leo and not a day longer. Can she possibly bring this off worlder back from the brink of death without any working knowledge of Leo's species. What starts out so innocently as a healer/patient scenario quickly turns into an inferno of lust with the most exotic description of Leo's attributes that I have had the pleasure of reading about in any male species. The old adage, "If it smells like a rose it must be a rose", well that's perfectly true here and let's just say, "Damn.........I need a bib"! Our author has given us a sci-fi tale of true love, hot sex and even hotter orgasms. A magical story of hope, love and devotion so deep that to lose that which you love so much would mean the snuffing out of your own life like the wind blowing out a candle. Kudo's for the Snap, Snap, Sizzle, Sizzle that will leave you panting for more. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

Enchanting Reviews: Warrior,
By Enchanting Reviews "Lisa" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Warrior: The Cat Star Chronicles (Mass Market Paperback)
WARRIORCHERYL BROOKS Sci-Fi Romance Rating: 4 Enchantments In WARRIOR, Ms. Brooks continues her unique style of mixing sci-fi with hot, sexy romance. Tisana, the local witch with a penchant for healing and the ability to communicate with animals, is in for a surprise when her ex-lover Rafe shows up unexpectedly with an injured slave to deposit in her care. Tisana feels there might honestly be little hope of saving the incredibly injured man. She promises Rafe to heal him in a month, and give word if he doesn't make it. Tisana gives the slave the name Leo and it fits, as he's reminiscent of a lion; that's not the only unusual part about dear Leo, a Zetithian, who becomes more unusual the closer she looks at him. And like a cat, it quickly becomes apparent Leo may just have nine lives. But Leo is a not a mere slave. In truth he's a soldier and soon he's called in to use his tracking capabilities to help find Rafe's kidnapped sons. Torn between her newfound feelings for Leo, and the fact that there's no way for her to keep him, no matter what he is a slave and belongs not only to Rafe but to his wife as well. Tisana finds herself risking her heart for the handsome slave. But when Rafe comes back and asks Leo to help find his missing sons, Tisana goes along on the journey, not ready to give him up quite yet. I have to say I liked Tisana right away, especially her unique abilities as a witch, with the ability to speak to animals and her sarcasm. I like how she dealt with things her way and didn't bend easily. Leo is yet another unique hero from Ms. Brooks. From his appearance to his behavior, he isn't quite the typical romance hero. Though I have to say, it did take me awhile to warm to him. Despite his `unique abilities' I thought he was a bit manipulative at times, especially where Tisana was concerned. WARRIOR features what Ms. Brooks is quickly becoming known for--a sexy, steamy sci-fi read. Fans of SLAVE won't be disappointed with Ms. Brooks' second offering.
