This book was a bit of a buzz-kill. Sexy and pervy, yes. But dull, deadly dull, and lacking sufficient cohesion to maintain interest in between climaxes - not joking. "Yummy" and "salacious" shouldn't drag between page turns, but I've been riding this thing for months now (even approaching each section as it's own short story) and I'm ready to get off.

This is actually 3 novellas, the first is the longest (and hottest) but the other 2 provide some interesting back story to the main characters. While the world was pretty interesting, I'm not sure it's much of a draw to read the rest of the series.

I had my reservations about this book at first. While it has everything I enjoy (erotica, fantasy elements, a French setting) I was hesitant. Maybe because I knew the book was fragmented into different stories and I have a hard time adjusting to new characters. Whatever the case, I am glad I finally put aside my trepidation. The book can be a bit difficult to ease into the first few pages but once you do, it's an all-consuming journey as you meet this amazing cast of characters. There isn't a single follet or human you don't feel for and end up rooting for. Honestly, I really want to get my hands on the sequels. I miss Elic, Adrien and Darius already.
