Dark and Stormy Knights edited by P.N. Elrod – review
Dark and Stormy Knights is an anthology edited by P. N. Elrod, who also has a story in the collection.

Urban Fantasy Mini Round-up: Ilona Andrews, Devon Monk, Lynn Flewelling

On the Edge by Ilona Andrews – review
On the Edge is the start of a new series for Ilona Andrews, famous for the Kate Daniels series. In this story, we have the Broken, a mundane world like ours that is juxtaposed with the Weird, a fantasy world of magic. Along the border between them is a narrow strip of land that has some of the characteristics of both worlds and is called the Edge. The people who live in the Edge understand some of both worlds but do not fit in either. Ilona and Gordon Andrews have created a paranormal romance that has the best of both genres. Rose and Declan are dynamic and interesting characters, and the magic they wield, and must face, creates a fascinating story that readers will thoroughly enjoy.
