"Up
From the Grave” by Jeanine
Frost is the 7th book in the Night
Huntress series and Cat and Bones continue to deliver all the
excitement and sarcasm you can handle. This is the last book in the
series, and it goes out with a bang. Obviously Jeanine Frost has been
planning this plot for a long time, and she throws everything she has
at it with great success. Put this book at the top of your reading
list, and put the rest of your life on hold. You won't regret
spending time with Cat and Bones at whatever the cost. This book
provides back story tidbits to help those readers who haven't read
the rest of the series, but I recommend starting with book one,
“Halfway
to the Grave”.
Fantasy
World
"Up
From the Grave” occurs in our everyday world where people who
see anything strange are immediately green-eyed into forgetting all
about those people with fangs who treated their necks like juice
boxes. It's a fun place to visit, and is filled with exotic locations
and medieval castles.
Tingle
Factor
Bones and Cat are still unable to
keep their hands off one another. The sex isn't as explicit in this
installment as they're mostly too busy pursuing one objective or
another. However, those two can still generate a forest fire with
just a kiss.
Romance
The great thing about this series is
it kept going after Cat and Bones fell in love, and even after they
got married. They clearly love each other intensely, but that doesn't
mean they don't also occasionally want to kill each other. True
love's path is never smooth.
Drama
Jeaniene Frost does a great job of
weaving in plot strands from the other six books and deftly creates a
thrilling end to the Night
Huntress series. Cat and Bones are in a race to save not only
their friends, but the entire undead world.
Heroine
Cat is just as stubborn as the day
we met her in Halfway
to the Grave. She still attacks first and talks later. She still
values family even when they betray her, and will throw herself on a
grenade for innocents without hesitation. She is a great character
full of flaws, which are a delight to read.
Hero
Bones is equally as stubborn as Cat,
and is a big believer in tough love. He's as intelligent and
conniving as he is handsome. Bones is one of the few literary
vampires who is truly believable as a master vampire. There are a lot
of so called Alpha males who he could school with his pinky finger.
