I love love love love love this book series. We're back with the D'Artigo sisters and once again we're focusing on Delilah. I hope this is a long running series and it looks like it really could be! It's hard to go into much to describe the book without completing revealing some incredible spoilers. For those of you who have never read this book series...I recommend starting with the first one if you can. I have actually managed to read this IN ORDER!! (I'm so excited.) If you can't then just pick up a book and go back to the other's for details and plotline to catch up to speed. You won't be overly lost jumping in wherever. However, for those of you who HAVE been following the series, we get a development with the Autumn Lord (remember, 's Delilah's a Death Maiden now, and this book focuses on her) that knocked me for a loop! Major news on the Trillian storyline, but alas we don't actually see HIM this time around. Karvanak's back...and it's BAD. The "Triple Threat" are setting up court Earthside and have a meeting with Queen Asteria. AND OH MY GOSH!! You won't believe what happens with CHASE!!!!! I wanted to kick him! Then kick her for saving him! Then kick him again for general purposes! But *sigh* alas, they overcome a lot, I didn't want to completely kill him off in the end, and was even glad they managed to...oops, I promised not to spoil anything. But I CAN say that things take a nice turn with Zachary and I am anxiously anticipating how THAT's going to play out.
Anyway, you gotta read this book and I can't wait for the next one. If Yasmine follows the pattern, we'll be focusing on Menolly and I'm REALLY anxious to see if she back tracks and gives us more of an inside scoop on what is going on with her and Roz.
ENJOY!!

The Otherworld series keeps interesting stories about strong kick butt sisters whose super magical powers keep improving with every book. This story adds a forehead kiss that has some surprises. These stories are best if you start with the first before reading the 5th.

Galenorn once again delivered on her promise in this continuing saga! Night Huntress is another fast-read that is lots of fun and packed full of adventure. If you love action and twists, this is the book for you. Can't wait to read the next one!
The further adventures of the D'Artigo sisters. In this one, the fifth in the series, Delilah takes center stage. This series is best read in order. A fun read in the urban paranormal genre.
This is the 5th book in the Otherworld series, the second book focusing on Delilah. I think I'm finally done with the series. The book is poorly written, the plot is weak. I really wanted to like this series and have read all 5 books. With each story the series gets worse not better. Urg... what a waste of time. There is much better UF/Paranormal out there. Dont' waste your time on this mindless junk.
This book fell flat. Delilah was my favorite character from the first book and book 2 was my favorite of the series, so I was looking forward to this one. However, as many others have observed, the series has gone downhill. While this book had its moments, it was disappointing. A great deal of it focuses on Delilah's debate with herself over what to do about her boyfriend, and I just could not get into it. Chase is a completely two dimensional, uninteresting character and I couldn't get excited about a conflict involving him. There were a few very lengthy setups to anticlimactic events that had me skimming whole sections. The idea of this series is great but I find the execution is missing something.
These are some of the best books that I have read. If you have never read any of them in this series you should.
I enjoy Yasminee Galenorn's writing in the Otherworld series. I feel she's created quite well-rounded and interesting characters in an engaging world of Fae and Human interactions. The pacing is good, encouraging the reader to keep turning pages.
This volume focuses on Delilah and her coming to terms with more of her werecat aspects/instincts, and her relationship with Full-Blooded Human police detective Chase vs her werepuma suitor Zachary. Kitten's growing up. While I'm far from being a prude, I find the sex scenes to be quite explicit and not always a necessary inclusion in the story; I could take them or leave them, but I suspect there are other readers who revel in those scenes. S'alright by me, whatever floats your boat. Happy reading!
