Raven Cursed

Jane Yellowrock, Book 4

By: Faith Hunter

Narrated by: Khristine Hvam

Length: 15 hrs and 9 mins

Publisher's summary

The vampires of Asheville, North Carolina, want to establish their own clan, but since they owe loyalty to the Master Vampire of New Orleans, they must work out the terms with him. To come up with an equitable solution, he sends an envoy with the best bodyguard blood money can buy: skinwalker Jane Yellowrock.

But when a group of local campers are attacked by something fanged, Jane goes from escort to investigator. Is it a rogue-vampire, shapechanger, or witch? Or something else magical? Unless she wants to face a very angry master vampire, she will have to work overtime to find the killer. It's a good thing she's worth every penny.

terrific ride...

Hunter is a skillful wordsmith whose witty and creative storytelling is thorougly enjoyable. Khristine Hvam is to be saluted for excellent narrating. Jane Yellowrock our kickass heroine is also a really good churchgoing girl and her life is hugely complicated... oh and Beast...
Recommended for all urban fantasy lovers who do not care for swearing or blasphemy, but still appreciate well- written, unpredictable, imaginative work. Hunter exhibits a great stock of knowledge which is unobstrusively and often with humour, interwoven creatively into the development of the characters and plot.
Rated 4 1/2 because it is an excellent (audible) experience

Good gravy....

Talk about a book that kept me entranced. Dang it. Lol

This story has a bit everything. It’s intense, erratic, utterly crazy, fantastic and a little heart breaking. Jane is working as a body guard for one of Leo’s men during some camp talks... and ya know things had to go up in smoke.

Add to that the fact that Jane’s best-friend Molly and her family of witches are put into serious danger by one of their own... and you have a book that will have you flipping pages until you hit the very last page.

If not for Jane’s heart and tenacity... this story wouldn’t be half as good and crazy as it is. I can’t wait for the next book.

Excellent Story Line

I have enjoyed the entire series, but honestly this is one of my favorite. Narrator is great and the story line built on the previous books, but you could still understand the plot even if you didn't read the previous stories.

Great book (in a great series)!

I really love this series! This book is one of the best so far!!!! In terms of the series overall, the characters are all very unique and well developed. The main character, Jane, is interesting and very different from heroines in other paranormal books. The native American aspect brings something new to a genre that is pretty repetitive. There is also a touch of romance without focusing solely on that.

I think this book stands out among the rest because the plot gets a lot thicker. There isn't just one main issue that has to be dealt with. Jane has problems coming at her left and right, and they don't all appear to be clearly related. It is full of action, tension, and mystery. The end of the book is left with questions still to be answered, but not a terrible cliffhanger (I HATE THOSE!!).

My only complaint about the book, is that it doesn't pick up where the previous book left off. I felt lost in the beginning to the point that I went looking for short stories I had missed. I found that collection (for Kindle) and it cleared up some of the confusion. There was still a lack on continuity and it bugged me, but definitely not enough to deter me from highly recommending the book.

Action

Any additional comments?

This book is action packed...but Jane is still making rookie mistakes..partly the vamp politics are to blame and partly she is. Many relationship changes are in Jane's future and the big question of whether or not she's done with the vamps.

Great story!

This great series of books is read and performed by an amazing actor! Each character has his/her own voice and personality. I don't just listen to a story, I experience an adventure!

What made the experience of listening to Raven Cursed the most enjoyable?

This series is thoroughly enjoyable. I haven't any regrets since the purchase of the first one in the series. I will continue to follow Jane Yellowrock as her journey through the supernatural world and self discovery progress.
