      This book launches a new series for L.L. Foster, also known as Lori Foster, romance writer. I was quite intrigued when buying the book, but I found the reality to have fallen short of the expectations. I had not read any of her books, but I recognized her name and was hopeful. Though I can't give any concrete criticisms, I'm sorry to report that this book failed to pull me in. Perhaps it was the protagonist, Gabrielle Cody, that I didn't care for. An orphan able to see the demons walking among us, Gaby is God's warrior against evil. Part ingenue, part Amazon, Gaby is a mass of contradictions that drives Detective Luther Cross crazy with frustrated desire. To me, though, she's mostly a ragamuffin with an attitude. And I like attitude, don't get me wrong, but something was lacking from this story, something that will keep me from picking up the sequel, Servant: the Acceptance (released this September). In the end, all I've really got to say is, "meh."

      The blurb on the back cover proclaims:"One of the most intriguing heroines since J.D. Robb's early Eve Dallas books." —Elizabeth LowellMyself a fan of the Eve Dallas books, I can tell you for sure: Nope, this is wrong. For one thing, Dallas is written as a believable character with such novel character elements as background history and a driving personality. And was given a place in an interesting plot set within a fabulously-built storyworld... a storyworld that, you know, had rules and made logical sense and didn't contradict itself. But I digress.Gaby Cody, on the other hand, is written as Eve Dallas-lite as done by Laurell K. Hamilton for the niche purposes of teen-aged literature. Presumably as away to appeal to the Buffy-fan demographic? Except Buffy was a really smart and interesting show? And that doesn't take into account that a lot of young-adult work is really good.I do not know or, frankly, care. Neither this series nor this author is recommended.

      I've read this book sometime ago so this review is retrospective. This book was recommended to me by a Facebook friend and so I went and bought it. After I've read it, I told my Facebook friend that I would not read any of his recommendations ever again. He then told me that LL Foster is his sister!! Of course I backpedalled furiously! I told Artie that the story telling quality was superb. Which it was! The story telling quality is a 5 out of 5. I must have said something sufficiently pacifying because he is still talking to me. If you plan on getting me a Christmas gift, buy me a duct tape for my mouth please. The reason I gave this book a one out of five is that this book has a cliffhanger ending. I don't like cliffhanger endings! This was the first and the last LL Foster aka Lori Foster book I've read and avoided LFoster since then.

      Gaby Cody is a Paladin. The only problem is she is a Paladin now. Raised in foster homes and then taken in by a kindly priest who recognized her for what she is, Gaby has had an unsusual upbringing. She is a combination of warrior and innocent. Det Luther Cross is intrigued by Gaby who doesn't want him to get to close because she is sure he won't believe that the people she has killed are really demons in disguise and that she is working under God's commands. Follow Gaby in her adventure with her landlord/friend Mort, who knows what she is, as they try to stay one step ahead of Det Cross while fighting the evil that crawls through the city.

      This was some pretty standard urban fantasy with a dash of romance. You've got a demon hunter guided by God, a righteous cop, and a bumbling but lovable sidekick. Lots of ass-kicking. Lots of menace. Lots of cursing. Nothing too special, but fun for those who enjoy this kind of thing. My big complaint, though, is the overuse of two dollar words. Don't get me wrong. I live for good vocabulary! A perfectly selected word can make my day. But this went too far. "Crepuscule." "Tenebrous." "Nictitating." Those are the words I found in the four pages I just read through. Four pages! It's all too much.Still, I may well finish out the trilogy. It's a fast read with plenty of action, and I'm curious. Plus, you never know what crazy word I'll come across next.

      Got this in the cheap section at Wal-Mart, having spent way too much on books lately.I was suprised how much I liked this book....it wasn't outstanding, but for a light (in a twisted way), supernatural read, it was definitely good.I'll read the next one anyway.

      Well! well, this is a different story altogether another group of novels of this author and the beginning of the leopard series and again very much different and I did enjoy the whole book can wait for the next book two. It is altogether a different story entirely but with some familiarity. Great book and hoping to read and listen to the nest edition.

      While as usual this story would have been great it was longer it was a pretty good story and a great introduction into a new series. I am not going to be able to say much about the story without giving away the story. I loved Brandt Talbot very much. He is a caring, passionate, intelligent and dominant man. He wants to keep his home and people safe from all those that want to destroy the rain forest. He is very gentle and caring with Maggie Odessa. Overall he is a wonderful man that needs the mate that he has been searching for all over the world.Maggie Odessa has been drawn to the rain forest and exotic animals all her life. She is caring, compassionate and very intelligent. Maggie is also very open minded and accepts what is happening to her every easily. I think she will be the perfect mate for Brandt. Maggie is also very brave and willing to jump in and save her mate at the end of the story.This is a very quick read and I enjoyed it very much. If you like paranormal romances then you are going to enjoy this introduction the the Leopard series.
