Shakespeare Undead by Lori Hand
eland (Pub. June 8, 2010)From Goodreads: Something wicked this way comes ... and it keeps coming and coming and coming...
William Shakespeare was one of history’s greatest writers, a master of words with a body of work that is truly impressive... some may say a little too impressive for a single man to accomplish in one lifetime. Perhaps, as many have speculated, he had assistance. Or perhaps the explanation is more ... unusual.
Who was William Shakespeare?
Who was the Dark Lady of the Sonnets?
Why are the undead stalking the alleyways of London?
And can they be stopped?
Something is definitely rotten in the state of Denmark. So brace yourself for a wild ride through twisted streets and shadowed graveyards of Elizabethan London, where you’ll discover how the Bard got his Bite.

Eternal Kiss of Darkness (Night Huntress World #2) by Jeaniene Frost (Pub. Aug, 1, 2010)From Goodreads: An immortal war has been brewing in the darkness…and now one woman has stumbled into the shadows.
Chicago private investigator Kira Graceling should have just kept on walking. But her sense of duty refused to let her ignore the moans of pain coming from inside a warehouse just before dawn. Suddenly she finds herself in a world she’s only imagined in her worst nightmares.
At the center is Mencheres, a breathtaking Master Vampire who thought he’d seen it all. Then Kira appears—this fearless, beautiful…human who braved death to rescue him. Though he burns for her, keeping Kira in his world means risking her life, yet sending her away is unthinkable.
But with danger closing in, Mencheres must choose between the woman he craves, or embracing the darkest magic to defeat an enemy bent on his eternal destruction.
So, what are you impatient, waiting, or wishing for this week? :)
Am I the only one that is blah over Mencheres HEA I really want Bones naughty friend...with the nipple rings *wink*
ReplyDeleteWell, when she mentioned Oded as her inspiration, it really perked my interest. :) I am also hoping for an Ian book. A lot of other people have been asking for that book as well. My fear? What if he stops being a rogue and becomes likable?! NO! I like my Ian totally smart-@ss. ;)
ReplyDeleteShakespeare Undead?! I am strangely intrigued. Methinks I have to check this one out.
ReplyDeleteI had all but Handeland's book already on my list and rushed off to add it. I've never read one of her books that I didn't throughly enjoy and this one definitely looks to be a different type of enjoyment altogether. Thanks much for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, some interesting sounding books here. Dark and Stormy Kinghts sounds like an interesting read for me. :) Thanks! I am going to have to keep an eye out for this one as well.
ReplyDeleteHey! I finally got First Drop of Crimson from the library. Can't wait to start reading!
