I loved Force of Law better, but I think FoL is going to be one of my all time favorites, so that bar is pretty high! This still rates as a keeper and a reread for me. This one feels more space opera - we meet Liam and Talon, two space pilots, forced to crew together. Liam is happy go lucky, human, hunk. But Talon is a humanoid who feels he comes from a superior strain and looks down on humans. It's an m/m book, so a relationship ensues. The sex is hot, I loved Talon he just sounded so delicious and Liam was so plain likable. I enjoyed the world setting. i would visit with these boys again... Liam and Talon are both warriors but from different planet. Both far descendant from Earthian, they share common genes, but not the same customs. Talon is from Kury, a planet whose people are proud and fierce, and always in control; they have a strict code of honor, and they will kill themself to not break it. Kury's warriors are also extremely handsome, lean and lethal, similar to Native American warriors; when they meet their mates, they release pheromones to imprint the female and make her desires the warrior. Female... not male! When Talon realizes that he desires Liam, the only right thing to do is to commit an honorable suicide. Liam is a friendly and open big man. Jovial and always ready to a joke, he has a perennial smile on his face. He can admit without problem that Talon is an handsome man, only a blind wouldn't notice that, but Liam is a woman's man... or not? When faced with the perspective to lose his new-found fellow fly-fighter, Liam decides to do anything to prevent it... anything! This is not a long book, less than 90 pages, but it's very funny. Usually a futuristic novel involving planet wars and aliens is strange, interesting, but not funny! Liam and Talon's story reminds me a bit Top Gun... who has not imagined that Iceman would be a better match (in bed of course!) for Maverick, rather than that insignificant woman? And so Liam and Talon play at wargames and in the bedroom with the same strenght and attitude: Talon all honor and duty, stick to tradition and hierarchy, and instead Liam is always ready to rebel and to make a risky move that in the end gain him the victory. So with Talon, Liam will risk and win. Again a rather light and easy book, surely not a serious 'futuristic' novel. Don't search for detailed description of new-worlds, but if you want a quite charming romp between the sheets... well try it. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0031LJ556/?tag=elimyrevandra-20 sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Talon is the elite of his kind, one of the proud, beautiful Kuryeen. So he cannot understand how he ended up under the command of barbarian Earthbreed Liam Grey. Ace fighter pilot Liam is the sort of untamed brute that Kuryeen females pretend to have no interest in-but they always look. Talon finds Liam's so-called boyish charm childish. Liam is brash, brazen, shameless-qualities not valued by the Kuryeen. To the warrior, pride is everything and Talon would choose death before shame. Talon is afraid of Liam and cannot say why. Friendly, cheerful Liam is no one his wingman should fear. So why does Talon's guard go up the first moment Liam brushes near him? Talon only knows that his commander presents a threat to him beyond his ability to resist. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

But this book (I use this term loosely) really is just a novella with looks of angst and sex scenes. What is really disappointing is that it could have had so much potential. I think that's what frustrating about this novel, I wanted so much more and the author.
This one just left me wanting. And while price should not be compared to length, but the price for this compared to how long it was was not porportional.
