Review:
I know I’ve probably said this about a bazillion times, but I love that the books in the 1001 Dark Nights series really do work as standalones, even though most (all?) of them as also a part of a larger series. They really do work for complete newbies and readers who already know and love those series and/or authors.
Or even those who have read those series in the past and loved them, but somehow let a bit of time go past and are a tad bit behind in them. Not that I know anyone like that 😉
I picked this bundle to read because I fit that last category for three of the series (Rebecca Zanetti, Kristen Ashley, and Laura Kaye’s) and I’ve been meaning to read the fourth author for a while now (Larissa Ione). As I’d hoped, this bundle exactly fit the bill–even if it’d been way too long since I’d read anything in the series, I had no problem getting up to speed with the author’s universe and was quickly drawn into the story. Hawkyn was a great introduction to Larissa Ione, and now between the series books I need to get caught up on and the new-to-me author, by TBR pile may be officially out of control… 😉
Rating: 4 stars / A-
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
