Book Reviews of Predatory Game (GhostWalkers, Book 6)
Book Review: Christine Feehan's Ghostwalkers are back
Summary: 5 Stars
She did it again with this suspensful winner. I loved the charachters and how they held true throughout the book. It was nice that she brought in Ken and Mari and Logan and Neil as I thought they way she ended Deadly Game was a little lost. Saber Winter is a lost soul hiding from herself as she tries to go on with her life after the horrible abusive childhood in the hands of Dr. Whitney. She meets Jess Calhoun and moves into his house as a housekeeper/nighttime radio host. I loved the way that she was powerful but was still able to show a weakness and not change into a lovey dovery simpering fool throughout. Jess has some serious protective instincts but is held back because of his wheelchair. I really like how she tied in the wheelchair aspect and you saw what he goes through to be the man he wants to be for Saber. If you liked Night Game, Shadow Game and Conspiracy Game you are going to LOVE this one to. Enjoy, I did.Book Review: Good book, but not up to previous titles in series
Summary: 4 Stars
This sixth installment of the Ghostwalker series is a good story. I enjoyed it and will probably re-read it at some point. Unfortunately it was still a bit of a dissappointment.
Previous books in the series have been real page-turners for me. They are the kids of books you can't put down and spend all night reading. I had no trouble putting a bookmark in this one and saving it for later.
It was more angst than action, the tension between characters was lacking and the storyline fo the Ghostwalkers really wasn't advanced by this installment. Story-building information seemed to be slipped in at too-handy times and the usual "match" between Ghostwalker counterparts seemed to be more talk than actual bonding.
While this is still a very ejoyable read, don't expect the intensity and page-turning action and romantic tension of Feehan's previous Ghostwalker books.
Book Review: What Happened?!!!
Summary: 2 Stars
This book was a major disappointment! There was absolutely no chemistry between main characters. The book starts out with them already having been together and already attracted to each other (but hiding it, of course.) so there is no build-up and no real conflict there. Jesse is too lukewarm of a leading man for my tastes. (I loved the Norton twins and Niko.) He just lacked the intensity of some of the others. I didn't buy that he was some bad-*** military tactician. I found the dialougue between the main characters silly and boring. (Much like the Drake Sisters Series, which I hate!)
And then there's the fact that this book did not forward the story-line of this series at all! She went off on a completely different tangent. All-in-all, if you skipped this one, you could pick-up the next one and never even know the difference. I know because I've already read the next one!
Book Review: Started slow but...
Summary: 4 Stars
I have to say I was a little nervous when I first started reading this book. I have been a huge feehan fan for over 2 years and now that im caught up in all her series I really anticipate each book that gets release. So i was really hoping this one would live up to expectations. It started out slow, and at times I really almost forgot it was a book about the ghostwalkers, but stick with it bc about a third of the way through the book it really picks up and feehan is back. What I love about this book as well as most of her other books is that she is a master at keeping the main couple the focus while doing a great job of incorporating secondary characters so that you can get to know them as well. No other author Ive read does a better job and it makes her books a great read. Im always sad when i finish one and cant wait for the next to come out. I definitely recommend this book!!Book Review: I didn't love this book...
Summary: 3 Stars
I didn't like how Saber's age was in questions through out (at least to me). The references to her looking like a teenager and being with the hero just made me unconfortable. And also, I felt that Ms. Feehan got a bit sloppy with the descriptions - I mean I felt like in the beginning I was reading over and over again how hot and strong with good biceps the hero had. I just didn't really care about them - and I've felt that about the 2 previous books in this series as well. The last one I really enjoyed was about Flame and Gator. I will continue to read the series since I totally love the concept, I just hope I feel more of a connection to the upcoming hero and heroine. And one other thing - Ms. Feehan had a book trailer for this book but the actors in that trailer looked absolutely nothing like she describes in the book.
