Blue Diablo, A Corine Solomon Novel by Ann Aguirre
Romantic Paranormal
I heard Ann Aguirre (www.annaguirre.com) on a panel at World Con in Denver in 2008. She was talking about her novel Grimspace and said that she wrote Romantic Science Fiction. I think Blue Diablo is a Romantic Paranormal. There is romance but do not expect a HEA (Happily Ever After) in her books. That is why I think she used Romantic Science Fiction instead of Science Fiction Romance when she talked about Grimspace. I have read Grimspace and if you would like to see my rating go to my Good Reads page.
Blue Diablo has fast paced action, great characters, and a good plot. Written in the first person, the book solves the problem that brings the characters together but leaves unsolved the problems that are uncovered along the way. This is obviously written as the first of a series. I enjoyed the story and liked the main characters. I am invested enough I want to see what happens in the next book.
Blue Diablo by Ann Aguirre was published by Roc in 2009.
I want to clarify: I will offer a HEA at the end of the series, but each book isn't like a romance in that that everything wraps up happily, relationship-wise, by the end of each book.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed Blue Diablo!
Thanks for the clarification. Since both of your series are still in progress I didn't know how either would end.
