Book 1 of 3 in the "Immortal Empire" series is a fun romp through an alternate history, where the Plague didn't decimate the English people---it changed them. Werewolves, Vampires, Goblins and "Halvies" co-exist with Humans in a modern-day London that has one foot firmly anchored in the Victorian era (since Victoria is a Vampire and still reigns as Queen). In this first installment, we meet a top-ranked Halvie, Xandra Varden--she's tough as nails, kicks major tail, and dresses to kill, all while maintaining her position in the British Royal Guard. When her sister Dede--another Halvie with some "special" genes--goes missing amidst questionable circumstances, its up to Xandra to literally dig up the truth. When no one and nothing is what you believed it to be, what's a hot red-headed Halvie to do but cause as much mayhem as possible on the way to what's real? With the help of her other siblings, a Goblin Prince and one truly sexy Werewolf Alpha, Xandra Varden is out to show London that if you mess with a Varden, you might end up on the dinner menu.... Parnormal/Mystery/Alternate History with a dash of romance and a super-cool heroine whose family unit would be enough to give even a ghost a headache. If you like Jim Butcher, Kim Harrison and even Gail Carriger, you're bound to love Kate Locke!Read full review
It's a fun read.
