Im still giving this 5 stars...

But

This felt like it had taken a step back... each of the couple come across as unique with such unique problems in the Phoenix pack reading this was a bit tame, but i loved the old favorites and the same pace as the other books... just out of the wolf world.. these two so far are my least fave couple.... They didn't click for me like the others.

Still amazing book, story and writing

love this book even reading it for the second time I'm still in love with it heaps

I really hate to say anything negative about a book when the author has worked so hard to write it. But there are some things about SPIRAL OF NEED that I feel I must mention. First, all of Wright's heroine's sound the same with their snarky comments. Second, the two plot lines almost seemed like two separate books. Next, the hero came dangerously close to disregarding "No means no." And last, there was too much killing done almost gleefully.

But don't take my word for it. Read the book and decide for yourself. Your mileage may vary.

Enjoyable spin off!

I really enjoyed the Phoenix pack books and this is a great spin off of that!

You're introduced to many of these characters in the Phoenix pack books and it's great to learn more about them.

Dominant wolf and Seer, Ally Marshall, is falsely accused of murder by her own pack in a devastating betrayal of trust. She's soon transferred to a new pack (The Mercury Pack) for her own safety. The only problem? Pretty much every member of this new pack hates Seers with the fiery passion of a thousand suns.

Well... I really wanted to like this one more than I did because I fell instantly, head-over-heels in love with Ally's character right from page one. She was funny, snarky, intelligent, witty, all in the face of being harshly misjudged and mistreated, which nicely stoked my indignation centres on her behalf. She was amazing and for probably about the first three quarters of this book, I was tootling along nicely and heading for a 4-star finish. But, ultimately, my problem with this book was the sex. The copious amounts of it and the pornographic nature of it. Essentially, I wish I could have picked Ally up and transplanted her into an Urban Fantasy instead so I could have enjoyed more of all the good stuff: Ally, the wordbuilding and pack dynamics - both of which were great - and the mystery plot which was tight. And even the romantic parts of the romance. Sadly, it was just too rude for this prude and I suspect all further instalments will follow suit.

A 3-star read overall for me, but perfect for fans of steamier than average PNRs.
