Review of "Midnight's Daughter" (Dorina Basarab #1) by Karen Chance
Not star rating this one. I felt completley different about the first and second halves.
First half -- loved it. Right mix of interesting characters, action, emotion, worldbuilding, story, etc. Exactly the type of urban fiction I was in the mood to read.
Second half -- endless battle, battle, battle, battle, battle ... Boring. Okay, so as soon as reader felt there was defeat or victory up pops new opponent or new situation to battle on -- but that just got repetitive.
The big "reveal" wasn't even really a shocker. It was nice to get a few more snippets of back story buried in the last half battle bits.
And I am intrigued enough to continue the series when in the mood (not likely soon).
