karrama's review against another edition

getting better. i'm enjoying the science a lot and the romance isn't quite making me gag, but it's not the best flirtatious interplay I've ever read. :) Getting better, for sure.

Loved this & read it in a day. I really like both Kali & Cedar. They are fun characters, their relationship has a great dynamic, and interesting adventures. I'm very intrigued by Kali's new pursuer. Bought #3 as soon as I finished this because I am so eager to read more & was happily surprised to see that #3 is a full length novel!

I looove Lindsay Buroker books so. much.
* the sassy banter
* the beautiful way she describes facial expressions/movement/actions in a way that almost equals the dialogue in importance and telling the story
* the attractive men *wiggles eyebrows*
* this story has steampunk!
* and the main character is a halfie!
My only complaint is that the books in this series are too short.

Hunted was a fun follow up to Lindsey Buroker's first Flash Gold novella. My review of her earlier effort sums up my feelings on the series, but I'll reiterate it here: the Flash Gold series is fast and fun. I appreciated getting some of my questions from the first novella answered. Fun dialogue, interesting, likeable characters, and a quick moving plot all make Hunted well worth the money you'd spend on it and the hour or so it takes to read.
A few things, however, could use some polishing. There were a few moments when the characters used obviously modern slang (I'm thinking of Sebastian saying "sexed up" in particular) that pulled me out of the story. In a steampunk work, I don't expect exact historical accuracy, I expect an imitation of historical speech that readers can understand. There were a few other such moments, I think, but this example is particularly egregious and easily fixed, so I hope that modern slang is something that Buroker will be more aware of in her next effort. Also, I felt that at times, the action scenes were a bit drawn out, particularly towards the end. As a reader who prefers less dialogue, more action, I'd like to see a bit more of a balance there.
That said, I am looking forward to another Flash Gold novella!

Dunno. I agree with the reviewers who think her series are a bit light and fluffy. However once I pick one of these up I tend to read these books until I am done. Then I go "Oh crap, it is 3 AM and I need to go to sleep..." So she must be doing something right.

I liked this sequel novella better than the first one in the series. The characters feel more defined in this one.

Continuing the story of Kali and Cedar in this novella, we get a little more background on Cedar and we get to know Kali better. I always enjoy Lindsay's characters, but I especially enjoy the chemistry between her main characters. Kali and Cedar don't fail to disappoint as they flirt with their mutual attraction.
Peacemaker (The Flash Gold Chronicles, #3) is out now, so don't worry about going into withdrawal yet.
