Darkfever (Fever Series, Book 1)

I am a fan of Karen Marie Moning's work. I love the highlander series. This book was unexpected. If you are not looking for a romance story but a good paranormal mystery, this book is for you.

I totally hated the main charactor- MacKayla....her arrogance was only superceded by her stupidity!!! She goes to a strange country, totally ignores warnings; is rude and so busy 'cracking wise' she invariably gets innocent people hurt and killed!! This could have been a good book if the writer were not so intent in trying to write like Laurell K. Hamilton! I read both the 1st and 2nd book (unfortunately I had purchased them at the same time) and they just left me more upset with the heroine than ever...I won't bother to read the 3rd book as frankly, I don't care what happens to her! I hope Barrons sees the light and lets her just die! what a waste of time! Oh and Mac ~ Barrons is a vampire for goodness sake, couldn't you figure that out already? Anyone want to buy my copies? $5.00 a piece! Still new with perfect dust covers!

The narrator is just awful. I disliked all of her accents and she definately sounded like an older southern woman....not to mention, she made Jericho sound like a crusty old Irishman. I'd recommend just reading it the old fashioned way.

I am impressed with Moning's writing prowress- as always. She never lets a reader down. Hail to the Queen of para-normal romances!

This is one of the most interesting, original books I've read in a long time. Karen Marie Moning creates an amazing world and I just can't get over how great her first-person voice resonated with me. I usually prefer third person, but - wow. I'll be anxious to read many more books by this author!
