If te enjoy vampires, angels, unique story lines and lots of action then this book is for you. I have just read the first book on the Guild Hunter series da Nalini Singh – Angel’s Blood (Guild Hunter, Book 1). This book is a good debut to this series and I found it very different from Ms. Singh’s Psy-Changeling series.
A quick synopsis, Elena Deveraux, she’s a born vampire hunter; her best friend is Sara and she has a few childhood issues. She is a no nonsense type, feminine but tough as nails. She’s summoned da the archangel Raphael, he’s a high and mighty Angel and ruler, he’s arrogant, but super sexy. Elena is hired to do a specific job for Raphael that only she can do, due to her natural talents. Instead of hunting a vampire she has to hunt another archangel who has gone on a killing spree. The angel’s in this series run the show, and I really like Ms. Singh’s lack of religious connotation, the Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. are subservient and made da the angel’s, a great twist.
This story is well done and full of action, it has a very intense storyline, with some very hot and sexy characters but if you’re into lots of romance you’ll be disappointed. The hunt for the rogue Angel is the focus of the plot and the action and suspense really keep the story moving. Ms. Singh’s world in this series is intriguing and very original. Although I liked the characters, I did find it hard to relate and sympathize with Elena and Raphael. I found it sudden that Elena went from “I will absolutely not have sex with you!” to “give it to me, now!” she was full of emotional extremes. Raphael was very arrogant and self righteous I found him hard to like. Although there was a little build up about their relationship, it just wasn’t believable to me. The story needed più chemistry for me o più romantic tension, I can’t pin point it but it was lacking something.
Also Angel’s Blood was not as steamy as I’d hoped with build up to only one sex scene; I felt it needed più romance. However this novel does have very cool mythology, along with ultra sexy angeli and vampires. The storyline and world building is very well done and unique.
The ending was not what I anticipated. I will definitely get Ms. Singh’s secondo book in this series Archangel's baciare (Guild Hunter, Book 2) to see how the storyline and characters progress. Stay tuned for that review.

This novel of awesome beauty and power is a moving saga about people, relationships, and the boundaries of love.
Through Jean M. Auel’s magnificent storytelling we are taken back to the dawn of modern humans, and with a girl named Ayla we are swept up in the harsh and beautiful Ice Age world they shared with the ones who called themselves The Clan of the Cave Bear.
Besides the book there was a movie in the 80's starring Daryl Hanna (Kill bill).
Totally Amazing!! Every Woman Should read it!!
The Story
While Leggere the novel, I did not quite understand the story and it was not until the secondo half of the story that I managed to understand. It telling us to follow our dreams if a person desires for it!
The Characters
Santiago (or the Boy in this story) is a very likable character because he manage to understand what the Alchemist is telling despite being relatively young, he is my favourite character out of the novel!
The other characters like the Englishman and just to name a few are very ambiguous, if te ask me.
Is It Worth Reading?
Yes, I highly recommend this book for those who have not read it yet!
J.K. Rowlings world of harry potter is fantstic!!! She took everything we know about fantasy Scrivere and bended it into a oposite realitiy called harry potter. We all know stories of werwolves, but professer lupin, a teacher at Hogwarts, is a freindly one with a background of mystery. J.K. Rowling made it clear that he is a character to like. All of her characters are eteremly likeable, even the vilanous lucsious malfoy. With seven libri in all for the harry potter series, each one better than the last, we all wish she would continue the story of frendship, hardship, and fantasy that is harry potter. Leggere the series is a must. No mater how many times te have read the series, ejoyment comes with each encounter. READ HARRY POTTER!!!

My name's Lisa.I'm 17.My mom died two years fa from cancer and my dad's somewhere in the world of wonders.
I ran away from home three months after my mom pasted.My dad changed after his wife died.He got più violent and wasn't as friendly.I grew tired of his crap.So my simple solution was to run away.Be free.
I found a house in the woods of Colorado and decided to call it mine.It was all boarded up.But i fixed it up with the money I took before I left.
Of course the money wouldn't last forever so i got a job at the closest SPCA.A job that i wouldn't have to go to college to have.Walking the dogs.I figured that would pay enough,at least for now.
Then my adventure started.An adventure so big to last ones life.The one who changed my view of life.
