I loved the CRIMSON CITY series, but this book of four short stories really didn't appeal to me. Although they're romantic and steamy, and bring back familiar characters, they didn't feel finished. I usually enjoy anthologies of short stories, but it seems that when it deals with the vampires, werewolves, demons, and other assorted lot who inhabit Crimson City, longer is definitely better.

Book of four stories that are part of the Crimson City Series! Some steamy scenes in this one!
good short stories
Great! Latest in the Crimson City series
wonderful short stories about crimson city. very good read.
I really need to find more of these books....this futuristic view of L.A. with vampires and werewolves and an almost post-apocalyptic feel makes it so great!

Very good, each of the stories was entertaining in itself. Even written by different authors they all seemed to go together.
This book is part of a series written by different authors. The series is as follows:
#1 Crimson City - Liz Maverick
#2 A Taste of Crimson - Marjorie M. Liu
#3 Through a Crimson Veil - Patti O'Shea
#4 A Darker Crimson - Carolyn Jewel
#5 Seduced by Crimson - Jade Lee
#6 Crimson Rogue - Liz Maverick
#7 Shards of Crimson (anthology) - Liz Maverick, Patti O'Shea, Carolyn Jewel, Jade Lee
#8 Crimson & Steam - Liz Maverick
I've read through the sixth book, I give them all somewhere between 3 and 4 stars. Not bad, not the greatest thing I've ever read.

Cover of Shards of Crimson by Patti O'Shea, Liz Maverick, Carolyn Jewel and Jade Lee
It's been said there's no such thing as quiet here. Ever since the metropolis first became home to paranormals, discord was named queen. But who will be her kingâvampires, werewolves, demons or men? Pacts have come and gone, all in secret. But one thing remains sure: From the soaring vampire high-rises to the werewolves' labyrinth, and even on the infernal plane of Orcus, this land is a battleground and conflict is eternal.
Yet there are those who join togetherâstrangers, enemies, lovers. Here, one silken caress can be deadlier than a bullet, but some still know joy. For darkness can become light, and in one sharp instant pain can become ecstasy and hatred, love.
