fun stuff

Annja Creed is a very interesting character. These books are quick, fun reads without the preachiness of some recent action fiction. Sort of "Witchblade" meets "Tomb Raider". If you know and like the "Rogue Angel" series, then then you will definitely enjoy this book.

Another interesting chapter for Annja Creed...

This book continues the tales of Annja Creed. I won't spoil any of the plot in this review. The story is pretty well told, and the book does move quickly (as all of them seem to do). This book was not my favorite for some of its slower portions trying to tell story that felt rushed or squished. However, there were two or three plot turns that made my jaw drop in anticipation of the next chapter. These books move quickly, but are really quite fun. I enjoyed this chapter (perhaps not as much as some others), but would recommend it for the fans of the Rogue Angel series.
