Cinnamon Blade: Knife in Shining Armor by Shira Glassman
5.0
This was a fun story - one you could read in a sitting if you wanted to.
It‰ЫЄs got everything! Superheroes! Vampires! Lycanthropes! Lesbians! Jews!
I mean - a well-written LGBT superhero story is a delight; but then my girlfriend is Jewish and I loved all the little references. Especially:
In describing the leader of her superhero team: His voice held that familiar tone of grim determination she knew so well. He took tikkun olam‰ЫУhealing the world‰ЫУvery seriously, especially since he had extra might to work with.
(I love the idea of tikkun olam!)
Keep in mind, it warrants an ‰ЫПR‰Ыќ rating, but it‰ЫЄs worth reading if your stories don‰ЫЄt need ‰ЫПPG‰Ыќ sensibilities.
