I have put this one off for a long time mostly because I wanted to go in with appropriate expectations lol. I liked it! I’m finding that I’m a real big fan of urban fantasy and this was no exception. I loved the idea of warring clans and found the whole premise to be entertaining. However, I did feel as thought I could use more info on the how of it all. I also and crossing my fingers for more from any of the female characters. This was a bit alpha male-ish for me and I definitely struggled with that lol. I have heard that the story gets better with each book, so I do plan to continue the story!
