Just when I think Faith Hunter can't get any better; she proves me wrong. I resented every moment I spent parted from this book. Jane Yellowrock has come a long way from the stoic warrior we met in Skinwalker. She's still as badass as ever, but now she has a depth I wasn't sure she'd achieve at the begining.

Things are still as chaotic as ever. Leo is still a domineering closemouthed SOB. Everyone who hates her still hates her (or has amped up the wattage) Eli and Alex (the kid) have become a solid part of the team. And the Vamp population is behaving normally. Secretive, manipulative, obdurate. You know status quo at Casa Yellowrock.

What I liked best about Black Arts is Jane's growth from Lone Cat to....lets call it pack mate. It starts when Even (her best friend's Molly's magical husband) who is looking for his missing wife, shows up and tries to blow her house down; literally, with her and the guys still inside.

Black Arts has a lot of intrigue and excitement. Don't let me ruin the fun setting the story for you. Just go get your copy now. Of if you haven't read any of them before start with Skinwalker. Don't read them out of order. You'll be hopelessly lost. The writing style is a little different in the beginning, and there is considerable world building and character development to get through but the series really improves as it progresses. The first two yellowrosk stories are solid reads, but by book they 3 Hit outstanding.
