Khara is found by one of these fellas who almost immediately figures out that he (and his band of merry men) are her half-brothers.

(Kinda like these guys - with less make-up. is sucking the souls out of humans and a group of brothers is in charge of keeping the city safe Spoiler Alert: Khara totally knows someone from the Underworld who has always been out to “make her his,” but because she’s a complete idiot for whatever reason she brushes off the idea that that person could be the one who is after her.Īnyway, it seems the Motor City has been battling some rogue supernaturals whose M.O. Khara (who happens to be a ginger and therefore looks NOTHING like the cover – clue #1 this might not deliver to its full potential) was raised in the Underworld as a ward of Hades, but wakes up one day in a place worse than Hell Detroit after being kidnapped and brought there by some unknown person/force. The whole idea behind this book sounded pretty kick-ass and the cover art was A.W.E.S.O.M.E. WARNING: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MATERIAL WHICH SOME WILL SEE AS “SPOILERY” – BUT IF YOU HAVE HALF A FUNCTIONING BRAIN CELL YOU WILL TOTALLY FIGURE OUT WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN ANYWAY SO I’M NOT SPOILER TAGGING ANYTHING However, that might have been caused by my inability to ever not finish a book I’ve started and wanting to end my suffering as quickly as possible. In fact, the only positive was that I read it really fast. Okay, okay – maybe it wasn’t quite that bad, but it was pretty horrible.
