Search - Broken (Women of the Underworld, Bk 6)

I love this series which manages to stay fresh with its rolling collection of main characters taking the center stage in turns. A pregnant Elena takes on a "minor job" which results in Toronto being infected with zombies, cholera and rabid rats. You need to start this series at the beginning as there is a lot of character resolution in this entry.

This book got pretty good reviews on Amazon, and I'm not sure why. I found it dull, and had to pick it up multiple times, in between reading other books, to finish it. I've never been engaged by Elena (I found Eve to be the most ambiguous and interesting character) and the "Jack the Ripper" angle didn't interest me at all. The plot turns into a series of "go here, do this, do that," and that loses appeal quickly. It's a decent story continuing the "Women of the Underworld" series, but it isn't a great book.

Armstrong's Women of The Otherworld series gets better and better. This time, we are centered on Elena again. A very pregnant Elena, who gets the pack involved in a deal to steal a letter supposedly written by Jack the Ripper over 100 years ago.But something happens and a portal is opened possibly letting Jack loose in modern-day Toronto.Another one that kept me up late, biting my nails, waiting to see what would happen next. Also, we get visits from Jaime Vegas and are introduced to a new Vamp, Zoe. At first, I didn't like Zoe, but I warmed to her and hope to see her in upcoming books. Are you listening, Kelley? lol

I was a little skeptical of this book after reading the summary however since I have really enjoyed all of the Otherworld stories so far I decided to give it a try. The whole Jack the Ripper thing seemed a bit much for me but Kelley Armstrong made it work. I love her writing style and she makes the characters so likeable and real. I definately recommend this book.

Fabulous addition to Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld werewolf pack novels.

The 6th installment of the Women of the Otherworld series goes back to the werewolves. Elena is pregnant, a first for werewolves who do not procreate by progeny but rather by infection, and therefore a cause for worry at the same time as celebration for her mate and pack. When they exchange a favor for information on a rogue werewolf, they are asked to steal back a stolen document which is supposed to be a letter from Jack the Ripper. Instead, it turns out to be a portal, and it looks like they have unleashed the legendary killer into our world. Armstrong has written another excellent story featuring her strongest character creation, and the added intrigue of Elena's groundbreaking pregnancy gives this a different twist.
