Review:Mel Morgan is young, Feisty and a paranormal tracker. Yes that's right, she is hired be paranormal's and humans to find their missing.

Review:This book is part of the Matchmaker series (but it's a stand-alone book). Set in the regency period, Caro and Niall are the main characters in this book. Caro meets Niall at a house party given by a man her father wants her to marry so she can get a title. Her attraction to Niall, the tutor, is palpable and over the time they are together in the same house, he falls hopelessly in love with her. But he is a lowly tutor with no hopes of enticing a woman of means such as Caro to reciprocate that lo... Read more
Review:The weird thing is that I agree with the substance of most other reviews of this book. Yeah, there's not much action. I wanted action. I wanted more magic. It's not there. The book focuses on several messed up characters, and they're messed up in a way that's not outlandish and bold, the way Dumas' Three Musketeers are messed up. These characters are twisted in on themselves. Hobb can write action well, but maybe her head isn't in that, the way it once was.
I agree with the other reviewer... Read more
Review:I have really appreciated reading all the previous books in the series (except for the stand alone soldier’s son trilogy which I haven’t read) and especially the ones with our beloved Fitz. This book however would get a 2/5 if it were not for how it fits so well into the rest of the world of the elderlings.
1, the book could well have been comprised to fit together into a slightly longer first book in the series and 2, gooosh I got so tired of all the interwoven homoerotic storylines! Come on... Read more
Review:The book was amazing great characters.
Suspenseful plot, the only thing I can say is that I would have liked more of a Chase before the main characters hooked up.? The book was great. Well worth buying the set. Read more
Review:Netherlands author Beatrice Sand makes her literary debut with the paranormal romance trilogy Ambrosia. Fascinated by mythology and the concept of demigods (defined as a male being, often the offspring of a god and a mortal, who has some but not all of the powers of a god, or an inferior deity; a minor god, or a deified man). She weaves her characters for this trilogy with grace and a profound respect for that part of life about which we understand little. Placing a demigod in an urban setting w... Read more

Review:This book kept me interested and wanting more. It did seem a little like ACOMF but that's just fine with me because I loved those books as well. I wish there would have been a little more details about the characters. I will definitely keep reading this series! Read more
