A review by hyenas
Blood Trade by Faith Hunter

3.0

These books suffer from some pretty glaring flaws. The writers knowledge of the foster care system, the casual mentions of beatings in the "Non-Denominational Christian Children's Home" and the whitewashing of Jane's race. These, combined with the occasional page long sermons disguised as Jane's religious turmoil, make for pretty irritating reading. It's obviously a book written from a place of privilege.
I find the fact that Jane is a happy product of this "Non-Denominational Christian Children's Home" (and yes, it's always referenced in full) extremely unlikely. I was hoping it was just a character development arc, but sadly by book six I have to give it up.
