3.0

Bad Moon stands out from similar books in its genre (urban fantasy) by incorporating some elements from high fantasy. The number of characters seems ever-growing, and sometimes it’s hard to keep track of who’s who. The plot starts interesting, and I was intrigued to find out more. But the more I advanced into the story, the more convoluted it got. Also, the author has a flair for the dramatic loves to play with ornate and flowery words which makes it feel like purple prose. I have nothing against it; it’s just not my cup of tea.
Below are a couple of excerpts from the book.
The main character, Joss (a werewolf) is wounded, and her mate Kazimir (a vampire) feeds her his blood.

“The minute his life-giving elixir hit her system, the wounds began to repair themselves from within. His caramel-like taste coated her tongue and throat, and she knew peace amidst the storm.[...] She continued to drink, basking in his endless well of love and comfort.”
