I am loving this cover and am really curious about the Shadowcat Nation. It sounded different than the books I have read about shapeshifters and I am always on the lookout for a new slant on a familiar story. The quick love is not a problem. They are "animals", so they don't waste any time. :-) I wish Abigail would have expanded on it a little bit more. Since blogging, I have come to enjoy learning more about the characters and why they do what they do. Andromeda is a strong, kickass female. She's intelligent, fierce and a fighter, yet she likes the girlie girl things too. She can be a softie and is a big romantic. I can relate to Andromeda's fight or flight feelings. Without training, I think I would be more reactive than proactive. Not so, Andromeda. I thought I knew a lot of what would happen, but Abigail Owen threw in some curve balls that I didn't see coming. The wide variety of shifters made Andromeda's Fall a novel and original story for me. I mean a polar bear? Have you read of a polar bear shifter before? The first time they made love drew a laugh from me and I love their snarky banter. The big fight scene is fully developed and detailed. Even though I knew the winners, I was totally engrossed. Sarai appears in physical form at the end and I can hardly wait to read her story. Even if fated, can a person's choice change that? I thoroughly enjoyed reading Andromeda's story. Abigail Owen took a familiar storyline, added her twists and originality, making this a great story and hooking me on the series. I received Andromeda's Fall by Abigal Owen in return for an honest review. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Before I start talking about Andromeda’s Fall, I want to apologize to Abigail Owen for taking so long to get to it, I should have this written and posted months ago.
When Abigail Owen emailed me about reading Andromeda's Fall it was because she saw a review I had written about a Suzanne Wright book, whom we both like. Now that I have read Andromeda's Fall I am kind of thinking that maybe there is some… shoot, I can’t think of the right word I am looking for, I know the word isn’t ‘mentor’ because that implies interaction and assumption on my part. Well, fart monkeys, if the word comes back to my brain before I finish this review I will rewrite this part if not I apologize for my brain fart.
The characters are well thought out and very likable or easy to hate depending on your preference for the douche bag bad guys or the badass good guys. Man, Carstairs were a piece of work and I got that much just from reading about them but when I finally came upon the part with them in the scene I couldn’t help thinking douche bag may be too nice a phrase to use on them. Andromeda, however, is a definite major badass, I really liked when she showed the boys club what she was made when she kicked their asses during her testing. Jaxson keeping his identity a secret was kind of crazy but it did add to the story line and made for some interesting events, and proved his staying power when he refused to let her go. Finally, I have to mention Papa Bear, because I have to say I think he was my favorite character with his over protective attitude that had Jaxson wishing he could crush him like a bug. I thought it was funny when they talked about Andromeda like she wasn’t there, forcing her to remind them that she was right there.
I honestly have nothing negative to say about Andromeda's Fall because even though it has been 2 years since the death of my daughter, I am still struggling with the loss and the issues it has created, and being sucked into a really good book that holds my attention from start to finish (especially when I am home alone) is truly a blessing, so, thank you, Abigail Owen for giving me that brief escape from the sadness and the chaos that comes when I am alone with my own thoughts.
