3.0 out of 5 stars Average Story, Mar 12 2004
By Elizabeth "lking173" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Realm Of Shadows (Mass Market Paperback)
I have to admit, I love vampire novels, but I am not the biggest fan of Ms. Drake, and it may be because this was the first Drake novel I read. The characters in this novel were not very developed, and in fact the main heroine, Tara, I found to be annoying. Tara goes to Paris to visit her grandfather who may or may not be going senile. He asks her to go and check on an archeological dig, and even though she just arrived, she decides to go to make her grandfather happy. While there of course archeologists dig up a vampire and the killings began. At this point Tara meets Brent, who may or may not be the killer. Tara is not sure if she should trust Brent but at the same time she is attracted to him. This story has many other characters and many other mini plots, but the book never seems to come together. It was an "average" story and I can only give it three stars.

I really started off liking this story and I did like the story but I was disappointed in the ending. I thought it could have been developed better. Sorry!

2.0 out of 5 stars Realm of Shadows by Shannon Drake, Oct 16 2003
By "simee" (Goldsboro, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Realm Of Shadows (Mass Market Paperback)
The story plot started out very good.The first couple of chapters had mystery and excitement. I was looking foreward to seeing how these two indviduals were going to get together and solve the mystery. But it started slowing down and the connection just wasn't there. The Characters started out good,but she left them all hanging with no real meaning.
The only real mystery in this book was how all the characters were related to each other.
The love story in the book, if you can call it a love story, was short...you would miss it.( I am not sure if this book was meant as a vampire love story or just a vampire story) The story all together was chopppy. The heroine in this book, if you want to call her that, was not a very good one. The ending of the book had a lot to be desired. This book had potential but got lost somewhere.

That lovely maximum, 'even Homer nods' (even the best author occasionally falls asleep at the wheel) is the only explanation I have for this book. Read more
