I just finished reading Gift of Fire and Gift of Gold. Jayne Ann Krentz is amazing. Not only do I love her sex scenes but her imagination re: paranormal phenomenon is amazing. What a woman!!

5.0étoiles sur 5 An excellent page turner every time I read Gift of Fire., Mars 18 1999
Par Un client
Verity and Jonas are wonderful characters. This sequel continues with more interesting dialogue and suspense. The historical facts intertwined with the romance make this book a spell-binding read every time. Jayne Ann Krentz has the ability to weave a story that transports you into the book to watch the scene. I highly recommend both Gift of Fire and Gift of Gold

3.0étoiles sur 5 Doesn't stand on its own, Fév 21 1999
Par Un client
Until I searched for Gift of Fire in order to review it, I only suspected that it had been a sequel. I figured that Jonas and Verity had been secondary characters in Gift of Gold that Ms. Krentz made the protagonists of Gift of Fire. Only now do I know that they were the hero and heroine of Gift of Gold as well.

Gift of Fire was exciting and intriguing, and I really enjoyed Jonas and Verity. However, since I didn't know for sure if the book was a sequel, I was annoyed by not fully understanding Jonas' and Verity's past history. I continually felt like I was missing something from their past that might have bearing on the present mystery. I kept waiting for an explanation of what had happened between Jonas and Verity before the book opened.

A cardinal rule of sequels is that they must be able to stand on their own as novels should the reader not have read the first book. Nora Roberts is a master of this. Her trilogies and Sacred Sins and Brazen Virtue all are capable of standing on their own. Especially pertinent to Gift of Fire's failure to stand by itself as the continuing story of Jonas and Verity, Nora Roberts' In Death books as J. D. Robb are the continuing story of Roarke and Eve Dallas, and all stand on their own without leaving the reader needing to have read the previous books in order to understand the one she's currently reading. Previous books' plot surprises are not spoiled, but neither does the reader feel she's lost the thread of the storyline.

Gift of Fire does not stand on its own, and while it was a very entertaining novel, it also left me frustrated.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great book!
I read the two books (Gift of Gold and Gift of Fire) in the wrong order. I loved Gift of Fire so much, I had to go back and purchase Gift of Gold. Both are excellent!
