Great short stories!

In Other World was a book with three different stories. I had not realized that these stories had been released at an earlier time. I enjoyed two of the three stories. The first story was taken from Kenyon's Born Series. I really liked this story about Adron and Livia. It was so sweet and loving that it sucked me in from the first page. I had seen Adron's name from the other Born books but it was great to get his back story. This book could have been longer because it would have been great to get into more depth about Adron and his injuries and Livia's culture. It was clear that both characters had been through some tragic situations. I loved how the story developed and ended. Adron was in so much physical pain and just wanted to be with Livia so much. I loved the way they met and how their loved developed over one night. I know I had tears in my eyes throughout most of the story. I also laughed a lot. I hope that Ms. Kenyon will do stories on Adron's brothers and sister Zarina. I remember Zarina from Devon's story. She is a kickass female. The second story started off cute but then just turned weird and confusing. I could not get into it. It just seemed so rushed. I liked the characters but then it got into some kind of library with books written by children and lost authors and just a lot of mumble. I could not get into it after that and I just skimmed over the last half to get to the last book which I knew was a werehunter book. I loved the last story because I love Kenyon's werehunter stories. This story was so entertaining that i could not put it down until I finished. I had not read a dragon shifter story before and I loved the story between Sebastian and Channon. Sebastian was so sexy and sweet. The whole mating and hand imprinting was great. I cannot wait until her next book No Mercy. All in all this was a good purchase and I enjoyed two of the stories. I would recommend the book to any fans of Kenyon who have not already purchased these stories earlier. You will enjoy the stories very much. I would have given five stars if not for the second story.

In Other Worlds - Anthology of 3 short stories

The main reason for purchasing this book was the inclusion of a story Dragonswan, which I had on my to be read list. Fire and Ice, excellent read highly reccommend. Knightly Dreams, so so, not something I would buy on its own, Dragonswan, excellent, worth waiting for.

A great book to fill-in your collection

I have read Dragonswan but it was my friend's copy and I was having a hard time finding it since was a little $2 book. If you have a collection of Sherri's books and are missing the little stories like Dragonswan and Adron's story this is a good pick-up. I wasn't crazy about Knightly Dreams only because I feel like the ending was rushed. It had the potential of Dragonswan - to have a good, well rounded ending but fell a little short. It reminded me a little of a book by Diane Whiteside & Angela Knight - Captive Dreams. That book was sizzlin' and is not for the light of heart, i.e. lightweight romance fans do not apply within! HOWEVER, I am a truly Kenyon Minion so all is well. Just buy the book! :-)
