I have a review up at the ARRA blog today – Dark Witch by Nora Roberts. I think it’s fair to say that I prefer her stand alone romantic suspense stories to her trilogies in a general sense. This was entertaining enough but a lot of it felt like set up for the series and there wasn’t really enough of the romance for me. That said, I expect I’ll read the rest of the series.
I was pretty overwhelmed by this one, partially because it felt like we had seen the story before – the Irish setting, the supernatural battle etc! Of course, I will still be reading the next book because I can’t help myself. It might be better!
@Marg: Yeah, I hear you. It felt a bit paint-by-numbers to me but, like you, I expect I’ll finish out the series. 🙂
