Started with the prequel and kept going because who doesn't want more sexy mages and werewolves throwing themselves at each other!
I thought it was going to be all sex and light on story based on the first half, but it switches and slows down to savor the relationships developing through the main plot in the second half. It may seem like it's all smutt and little substance but the "best selling author" really comes through when things get serious. I really really enjoyed the deep conversations in the back half and marked them for the future when I need a character to tell me it's going to be okay. I certainly couldn't think to respond to people with those words, so I was impressed.
It's really nice to have queer characters you love in such a lengthy series. Each book is having me eager to see how the pack is doing and who's going to get bedded next! Woof!
