3.0
This book was a lot spicier than I was expecting. Honestly it's mostly just sex or sensual teasing. The descriptions of the characters are mostly listed in a paragraph when they are introduced. The descriptions felt forced...almost an afterthought. The ending is rushed and took me out of the minimal world building.

This is the first book in the Merry Gentry series. An introduction to the really messed up world of the Sidhe . This world is dark, violent whether you are seelie or unseelie.
All the characters carry deep scars and wounds and these in someways shape their lives. There are no good guys or bad guys in this tale. Just people trying to survive the hand that fate has given them.
If you are squimish, give this whole series a skip… actually just skip Laurell K. Hamiltons books all together because all her books so far are Dark fantasy.
