4.0
A Questionable Client - 4/5. Interesting world and main character. I'll have to check out the first book.
Even Hand - 4/5
The Beacon - 3/5. She copies her husbands writing style really well, but the story was boring.
Even A Rabbit Will Bite - 3/5
Dark Lady - 4/5. Well written period piece, with nice, traditional vampire mythology, and some interesting intuited elements (healing in gas form, wood as a general weakness).
Beknighted - 2/5. Not interested.
Shifting Star - 2/5. Has potential, but it's destroyed by overarching romance plot.
Rookwood and Mrs. King - 4/5
God's Creatures - 4/5. Worth checking out the author's other works.
Merged review:
It had potential, but it had a good deal of flaws. And, I don't buy the "you monster, our women are meek and helpless!" angle.
