Title: PrideAuthor: Rachel Vincent
Series: Shifters
Genre: Urban Fantasy
Year: 2009
Summary and Blurb: Here's hoping cats do have nine lives...
I’m on trial for my life. Accused of infecting my human ex-boyfriend—and killing him to cover up the crime. Infecting a human is one of three capital offenses recognized by the Pride—along with murder and disclosure of our existence to a human.
I’m two for three. A goner.
Now we've discovered a rogue stray terrorizing the mountainside, hunting a wild teenage tabby cat. It's up to us to find and stop him. With my lover Marc's help, I think I can protect the vulnerable tabby from both the ambitious rogue and the scheming of the territorial council.
If I survive my own trial…
Thoughts: This book pretty much continues where the last one (Rogue) ended. Faythe is in the fight for her life, cause of one small accident. I kinda have a love/hate relationship with Faythe. She is a great heroine, but sometimes her actions are really dumb. You just want to shake her.
I loved this story, I thought it was a much better than book two. It was entertaining, driven, shocking as well having some heartbreaking moments. Plus the plot wasn't all about Faythe this time. A new tabby has come on to the scene. I hope we'll see more of her in the next book. I was hoping for a different ending, but it could have been alot worse. I don't want to spoil too much, so if you read the book you'll understand what I mean. If your fan of shifter books, this is definitely one to check out.

You're reminding me I need to get this from the library again. (I had it, but it had to be returned before i read it.) Glad to hear it's a good installment to the series!
ReplyDeleteYour blog looks so beautiful. Just wanted to say that.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds good, and I have seen that cover around. But it will surely stay on my to get list long, cos it's growing, lol
ReplyDeleteThanks Melange!
ReplyDeleteBlodeuedd... LOL! I've lost hope on my list ever getting shorter, it's always growing.
I have Stray on my shelf, my goal is try and read at least one of the Shifter books this month. Thanks for the review, reinforces why I need to just hurry up and start reading it.
ReplyDeleteGreat Review! I love Rachel Vincent but I haven't read this one yet!

Ooh, I might check these out because they sound like the Kelley Armstrong series (which I also like).
ReplyDeleteHey Anna!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your thoughts. I've read the first book of this series and loved it. I've got book 2 buried in the alps and will have to get to it.
I'm happy to hear book 3 is worth the read.
Great Review!!!

Hey Anna! Great Review!
ReplyDeleteI've been contemplating this series for a while. I find myself getting sucked into the covers. Sheesh, I'm such a cover freak. Anyway, I'm still on the fence about whether or not they're for me...
Thanks for the recommendation!
:) VFG
Thanks for your thoughts. I will definitely need to check this series out the next time I get into a shifter mood!
ReplyDeleteI had completely forgotten that I had book 2 on my shelf! I need to read that one soon so that I can get to this one. And yes, even in book 1 I wanted to shake Faythe! lol
ReplyDeleteHi Anna!
ReplyDeleteGreat review! Sounds like a great series, I keep meaning to start it, but so far haven't managed to. I can't wait to try My Soul to Take too.
