Los Angeles is a bustling metropolis, yet Meredith NicEssus, sidhe princess, it seems a hospitable retreat in comparison to the Court Seele, a realm dominated by the pleasure of the senses, but also by obscure political maneuvering and deadly intrigue. Three years ago, following the conviction handed down by Queen Andais, Meredith fled the court and hid among humans. Now it's called Merry Gentry, working in a detective agency specializing in supernatural crimes and leads a normal life. It is normal, at least in appearance, is the task which recently has been entrusted: to help two women get rid of the dark power of Alistair, unfaithful and violent man who seems to have subdued. But Alistair hides a terrible secret is revealed and the investigation soon very dangerous, so that Meredith commits an unforgivable mistake, revealing his true name and unleashing the wrath of Andais. Now, for Meredith, nowhere is safe ... Once you have a vampire hunter Anita Blake, Laurell K. Hamilton gives us another memorable character, capable of winning with an exciting mix of adventure, suspense, magic and sensuality.
Just open the book, we find ourselves cast into a modern world filled with ancient legends. As in the series Anita Blake, the protagonist is an expert of the paranormal who works in an agency, but it is also something more: it is a princess Shide, the court ruled that the family U nseelie and is hiding in the midst of death. But something goes wrong, she, who has always been despised and rejected by Shide as part human, he finds himself prey to the attentions of the queen Andais. A "quiet" routine work thus becomes the first in a flight against time, in a series of palace intrigues that lead us deeper into the enchanted kingdom. DESCRIPTION vividissime support the author's entire history, enriching our fantasies and presenting all the characters a Magner sublime and the plot flows smoothly under your eyes so that you reach the end without even realizing it.
The interesting thing about the book is one of the topics on which turns the history, the trigger of the matter: sex. Is not presented as something shameful or thrust (although there are strong scenes), is in fact presented a very interesting approach to the topic of philosophy, sex is a thing free, a way to communicate, to feel great. Please note we are not talking promiscuity or people easy, but sharing and maximum respect for each other. The concept is very complicated to make a review in a few lines but, in my opinion, is one of the best ways to see the sexuality that he has found in a book.
So: I highly recommend this book, is engaging, relaxing and, above all, different from the usual fantasy.
Beware the series can be addictive!
