Above that I round up. I had problems rating how I feel about this one. While I feel it deserves more than 2 stars, or even 2.5, it is not a full 3 stars either. This is due to all the negatives I found in the story. It is the positives I found that finally had me clicking 3 stars. It started out interesting. Slowly it became a quagmire of problems. The repetition became excessive. I read 'He wanted', 'She wanted' and 'Hunger' so many times I was ready to commit Bookicide! The repetitive rambling of how Lucan ached for his brothers & Cara. Rambling between his various thoughts of protecting his brothers, his physical attraction & emotions about Cara. The list goes on. By the time Lucan & Cara were finally intimate I just didn't care anymore. The Scottish brogue used sporadically throughout the story was horrendous. It was so infrequently used and so inaccurately composed it became meaningless in the story. In truth, it was annoying and became distracting. Then there was a paragraph that literally contradicted itself. "....but she understood that these Warriors had accepted the god inside them and knew just how powerful they were. For over three hundred years the MacLeod brothers had denied what was inside them. Denied it and refused to learn what their limits were. That had to change if they were going to beat Deirdre." At this point none of the brothers had accepted the god inside them. While I had a couple of other problems with the story, I am going to jump to the positives. I didn't run into many editing/typo errors other than the way the Scottish brogue is written. The basis of the story is well done. The beginning is truly intriguing and is what kept me reading. At 72% it started to get interesting again, but I still had to skim through repetition. I find myself curious as to whether or not the author improves or removes the Scottish brogue in the rest of the series. I would like to see more of this world. The world build, while it could have been much better, was interesting. I find that I can't make up my mind about following the series. I want to know how it continues to develop. I'm just not sure about investing my time into a series that the first book of had me considering putting it into my rejects shelf. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
