I was originally attracted to this book because the protagonist is not only a woman of colour, she is an indigenous woman. And then she learns things about the rogue that make him more terrifying and more powerful than she had ever imagined.Īnd, of course, working with vampires is never simple, with their politics and machinations and endless secrets, it can be hard to say the least to decide who to trust and whether you have all the information you need. Jane has to hunt down the rogue, but in the process she learns far more about her past and her Cherokee heritage, as well as some disturbing things about her history as a skinwalker - and the history of Beast, the great Puma spirit that shares her body. Now she has made a name for herself, the vampires of New Orleans have called her in to hunt down a rogue that is slaughtering the tourists and the police force - and making the vampires look bad. She’s also a vampire hunter, and an extremely good one. Of course, she doesn’t know much about being a skinwalker or her past - having been found in the woods as a child with no memory of her life beforehand. E.Jane Yellowrock is a skinwalker, the only one she knows. Best urban fantasy I’ve read in years, possibly ever.”-C. “In a genre flooded with strong, sexy females, Jane Yellowrock is unique.Her bold first-person narrative shows that she’s one tough cookie but with a likable vulnerability.”- RT Book Reviews “Hunter’s very professionally executed, tasty blend of dark fantasy, mystery, and romance should please fans of all three genres.”- Booklist “Readers eager for the next book in Patricia Briggs’s Mercy Thompson series may want to give Faith Hunter a try.”- Library Journal “Jane Yellowrock is smart, sexy, and ruthless.”-#1 New York Times bestselling Kim Harrison The fight scenes are exciting and the New Orleans setting is absorbing, but it’s the ever-evolving bond between Jane and her Beast personality that keeps this fun series fresh.”- Publishers Weekly “Jane is a fully realized, complicated woman her power, humanity, and vulnerability make her a compelling heroine.
“A lot of series seek to emulate Hunter’s work, but few come close to capturing the essence of urban fantasy: the perfect blend of intriguing heroine, suspense, fantasy with just enough romance.”-SF Site
