“Praise for the Jane Yellowrock Novels "Faith Hunter has created one of my favorite characters, ever...Highly recommended."--Fresh Fiction "Faith Hunter's Jane Yellowrock series is a high-octane urban fantasy that follows its own rules."--Smexy Books "Hunter's very professionally executed, tasty blend of dark fantasy, mystery, and romance should please fans of all three genres."-- Booklist "Jane is a fully realized, complicated woman; her power, humanity, and vulnerability make her a compelling heroine. The fight scenes are exciting and the New Orleans setting is absorbing, but it's the ever-evolving bond between Jane and her Beast personality that keeps this fun series fresh."-- Publishers Weekly”
