User Reviews about Blood Cross (Jane Yellowrock - Book 2)

The plotline for book one is Jane Yellowrock, vampire huntress, is hired by vampires to destroy a vampire rogue in New Orleans. Guess what the plotline for book two is? (If you said kill a vampire rogue who is making more rogues, you win!) So this time Jane also manages to sniff out the evil at a vampire party, but not talk to the key person. Oh, and she spends several chapters flirting with and hitting second base with both Bruiser and Rick. It's mostly beast playing Jane's libido.

The main novel changes locations often, but little plot comes of it. Probably the biggest 'dumb character gaffe', was the witch visit. Jane's best friend in the world, a witch with two young witchy kids, comes and visits her in the middle of this extremely dangerous case. To compound the stupidity, one of the kids is even precognitive! I think a ten-year can figure out if the author puts the unusually powerful witchy child on the mantle, she'll be kidnapped in act two. So the finale is both a 'stop the baddies' and 'rescue'.

While the pacing is fast, I found the plot structure unimaginative and average. World building occurs, but the beast/Jane interactions which added so much in book one, were minimized in book two. Overall a book in the urban fantasy genre that hits all the cliches. -- Rehashed Plot, Flirty Overdrive, and Dumb Secondary Characters

Faith Hunter's characters are vivid and her story twists and turns to keep the reader riveted. I highly recommend all her books. -- Vivid

good story and great characters. nice research. she just needs to lay off the thesaurus to make it an easier read. if the reader doesnt use a thesaurus to read then the writer shouldnt to write. it creates blocks in the understanding. -- entertaining but wordy

I will not do a review of storyline. I wanted to let fans of strong female leads know that this is a not to miss book or series for that matter. Jane Yellowrock is a skinwalker and at first i didn't know what to think of the description of beast vs. Janes persona. I have to admit the fit is right. The story draws you in to a world full of other beings that blow your mind all the while seeming believable. What i love about Jane is she is the kind of friend every woman would like to have. She will fight until the bitter end to save those she cares about. She is loyal , smart, strong, and goes in guns ablazing....my kind of heroine!!! Highly recommend this adventure. There is romance also and if i had one complaint it would be to have a stronger romance line. 5 stars again...waiting for the next book -- the bumps in the night hide in fright from Jane

I love Angelique and Molly and of course little Evan, but not too crazy about her family. I was very happy they were in this book. Do not like Rick, I hope she does not end up with him. Violent, sexual, and funny. Loved -- Leo should die
