Short and Sweet Book Reviews #191- Shadow Hunt by Melissa F. Olson, Outpost by W. Michael Gear

Shadow Hunt (Disrupted Magic, #3)Shadow Hunt by Melissa F. Olson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I first met Scarlett Bernard in Dead Spots and have followed her every since. This is book three is the second trilogy and the story just keeps getting better. Molly and Jesse are back and important characters in this story. The big surprise is something that Scarlett never expected. That surprise drives this plot and causes no end of trouble. When Scarlett unexpectedly leaves town an old enemy arrives and starts to take revenge. This is a fast paced story that ends with a new relationship between Scarlett and Jesse. About time is all I can say. This does end the Disrupted Magic trilogy but I hope that we will see more of Scarlett and the world she lives in.

I received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review.


Outpost (Donovan Trilogy #1)Outpost by W. Michael Gear
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Outpost has a very complex story line filled with interesting characters living on a very dangerous world. The viewpoint moves around from character to character often letting the reader know facts that are not shared with other characters. I loved Talina Perez. She is a embodiment of what it takes to live on Donovan. She is strong knows how to survive on this very dangerous planet. Donovan itself is a important character in the story. It is Earth like but filled with some very dangerous native life. The fact that supply ships have not been arriving as expected has changed the people and the life style on the planet. Great world building, interesting backstory and a multifaceted plot line make this a story hard to put down. Many things are left up in the air but everything is in place for the next book in the series.
