House of Earth and Blood

So once I got past the exposition of the first few chapters, I started to get into it. I have to question the structure of the book, but that's water under the bridge at this point. I found the setting more compelling than in the Court series, but I will admit that I'd hoped from the series titles it'd be set in New Orleans (it is definitely not). Still urban fantasy, but not our world. I'll continue with the series, at least.

I enjoyed this so much more than I thought I would. Good world building. Great characters. Humorous at times, but a harrowing tale. She writes great erotic scenes but it's mostly teasing.
