Review--At Grave's End


At Grave's End

Again if you haven't read the first or second one yet, do NOT read this post any further for there are more spoilers!!!

The third and current installment in the Night Huntress Series. The fourth novel is due out this July. Yea!

In this one Cat and Bones celebrate the holidays, with a battle that takes place in the dead of night. Zombies attack! Seriously!

A woman from Bones' past has come to reek havoc on his life and those around him. Which puts Cat into danger and not even her training she learned as a special agent can save her. She is going to have to embrace the vampire half of her life.

On subplots this book is pretty good. Cat and Bones are married in the eyes of vampires, and Bones is now set to make the union legal in the eyes of humans. Yes, Cat and Bones are planning their wedding, although the plans are put on hold when chaos erupts.

Tate, once Cat's best guy pal, is still vying for her affections despite Bones' many warnings and despite the fact that she loves Bones and is married to him, in one way. Tate takes on certain obstacles and changes his life around in order to make himself more appealing to Cat. He is determined to win her affections once and for all.

While reading the book, you can tell what Cat is going to decide. So be prepared. Cat's father makes another appearance in the book and the results from that are shocking. Not to mention the fact that Cat must tell her mother, who hates vampires with a fiery passion, that she is going to marry Bones.

Her mother has a better role in this novel than she did in book 1. We see more of her as Cat feels she would rather be the one to protect her at her side while this thing with the woman from Bones' past takes place.




Destined for an Early Grave

Out on shelves on July 28!

Taken from Jeaniene Frost's website:

Since half-vampire Cat Crawfield and her undead lover Bones met six years ago, they've fought against the rogue undead, battled a vengeful Master vampire, and pledged their devotion with a blood bond. Now it's time for a vacation. But their hopes for a perfect Paris holiday are dashed when Cat awakes one night in terror. She's having visions of a vampire named Gregor who's more powerful than Bones and has ties to her past that even Cat herself didn't know about.


Now for a little extra news:

Jeaniene is running a contest to win an ARC of Vicki Pettersson's newest book in the Zodiac Series on her Live Journal Blog. Here is a link to get to the site:

All you have to do to enter is email her, it's real simple. I have read and loved Vicki's Zodiac series, I just have not gotten to posting about it since I have read them so long ago. Hers is a fantastic series that has an ongoing battle with the Shadows and Light, members of each Zodiac battle against the other. Check out Vicki's website for immediate details about the series at:

  1. This sounds like a good Night Huntress novel. I didn't know vampire/human legalities were so complicated!
