Customer Reviews

Really good!

I really enjoyed this book, although it seems I'm in the minority as most reviews I've seen are negative. I like the FMC as she was a little unlikeable, but not in an annoying way, she was headstrong, not a damsel in distress. The book is kind of choppy, and there were times I thought I had missed a few pages because of it. The shadows is such a cool idea, I loved having something new to read about in fantasy. There is a second book Thief of Night and I recommend reading it as well.

Nice

Slightly similar to Hooked and Powerless (Totally different series and authors)

Meh?

I really wanted to like this book, but I felt like the story was all build up and no deliverance. The so called "twists" that this book have were pretty evident to me from the beginning and it just felt like any old book about a thief. I did not find Charlie Hall very compelling as a main character, nor were the lovemaking scenes as steamy as the reviews made them out to be. It took me forever to find the drive to finish this book and it is just not my cup of tea.
