Synopsis
Half human, half god, Dagan Krayl is the Underworld's most powerful soul reaper. When one of his brothers is murdered, Dagan must use every ounce of his power to hunt down those responsible for his brutal death. But he must move swiftly—and carefully—if he's to have any chance of resurrecting his brother. Yet that resurrection could wreak havoc on the mortal world. As an Otherkin, Roxy Tam has sworn to protect the human race, and it's her mission to stop Dagan. But when she sees him face-to-face, she realizes that she has seen him once before—a meeting that changed her life forever.
Neither Dagan nor Roxy expect to join forces for the sake of mankind. Or to have their loyalties tested as they struggle against the potent desire that threatens to consume them both….

I tried this book based on Donna Lockin's review which talked about that "euphoric feeling" you get when you start reading a new author and think, "this is gonna be a good series." I totally identified with that feeling having felt it for many of the series she listed and figured we had similar reading tastes, so I gave it a shot. I was not dissapointed.
I've never read a book by Eve Silver before, and I enjoyed her writing. At first I wasn't sure I wanted to start another "smart mouthed touch chick" paranormal book series (really, how many bounty hunter/huntress/detective/foot soldier/warrior chippies are runnin' around out there now?). The book focuses a lot on Dagan as well and Roxy (yeah, OK, a stereo typical tough chick name, but it could be worse) isn't really the annoying cookie I dreaded she would be. Oh, just a warning though, the plot is an ongoing story line that is going to span across the series - in other words, it isn't fully resolved in one book. Some people find that aggravating (understandibly), but I find that if I know that ahed of time, I'm not so annoyed. Plus, it ends with some ground being made so it's not a dire "cliff hanger", just ongoing.
I understand that the books are to be released a month apart - HUGE plus. I hate waiting year(s)! Book number 2, Sins of the Soul (TBR Sept. 1, 2010) and is available for pre-order on amazon now (for kindle readers too). Book #3, Sins of the Flesh (TBR Oct. 1, 2010), and a pre-quel novella Sin's Daughter (already released in July 2010) round out the Otherkin Triology. Apparantly the Otherkin books themselves are not to end with this trilogy, and there are two more Otherkin books planned for beyond book 3. We can only hope they continue to be just as good! I think I may try Eve's The Compact of Sorcerer's series (Demon's Kiss and Demon's Hunger) or some of her historical romances too - kindle free samples anyone? Gotta love e-books!
