Lara Adrian doesn't write pulse-pounding heart-stopping action or real brain-teasers. Her Breed series is pretty predictable & plods along at a nice steady pace.
However, her books ALWAYS leave me satisfied at the end--which says a lot! This book introduced some new twists & turns & characters that set "the Order" on a new path. It was a very nice way to transition from the old to the new.
This was a delightful story for Chase. I never felt it was too stale or boring, it kept moving forward just fast enough to keep me going. She'll never be as riveting a read as JR Ward, but I continue to enjoy her vampire genre nonetheless.
I really thought Adrian's Breed series was getting better and better but I had a hard time with this one. The beginning was rather redundant and slow. Chase, who used to be my favorite, was kind of annoying and made such bad decisions. Tavia was awesome though. Her character totally made senes. By the middle of the book the pace picked up. I wasn't that into the love story this time because Chase lost his sex appeal for me here. I actually enjoyed the battle with Drago more.
It would be interesting to see where this goes. I find it hard to believe that Adrian wouldn't want to continue with Nathan, Mira, and the younger generation. Plus they would have to help all the other special Breeds out there like Tavia.
Decent read. Not her best but definitely not her worse.
