Bloodring by Faith Hunter
4.0
I'm currently re-reading the series to see if I feel the same way.
This series struck me as different from all the other Urban (post-apocalyptic) Fantasy that I've ever read. I must have started it 4 or 5 times before I got past the 1st page, and felt pretty stupid when I finally did.
Most folks probably know Ms. Hunter from her Jane Yellowrock books (HUGE kudos for not whitewashing the latest cover). I started with the Rogue Mage books and moved on from there. I really wish we could get more on this character. There is some odd RPG stuff going on with a book? for that, but nothing on the novel front for this series.
Despite this, the current trilogy of books is WELL worth a look. I recommend them for any UF fan although they are apocalyptic fantasy. Also, ignore the horrible synopsis on Goodreads/Amazon.
