January Chevalier is a vampire bounty hunter in a game of kill or be killed! That is an interesting premise. I found the characters to be well drawn and the plot, if you believe in magic and mystical beings, to be well drawn. This is a short story – to be read after the first book – Death’s Dark Horse – since it contains a spoiler. The timeline is actually a prequel to book one. The plot fills in January’s back story.
Standalones, but a well written series! If you love Sooky, you’ll love this series. Each book gets better, as do the characters and the plots are suspense-filled, intriguing and action-packed.
Death’s Reckless Reaper, Prequel – An introduction to January. I’m glad I read Death’s Dark Horse first, since the anticipation of discovering what her other form was well fed by the delay in revealing the truth. This little story starts with her move to Paris and her experiences with her first vampire marked for death and a twist. Read after Death’s Dark Horse is my recommendation, if at all. The author said she was going to rewrite Reaper and make it 1.5 instead of a prequel. 5*
Death’s Dark Horse #1 – A well written, suspense filled story with a unique and surprising character and many other interesting characters, along with humor thorough out the story. The plot is well thought out and the reader is kept guessing as to what is so specially about the main character: her job is surprising and you may guess at her animal. I guessed it but put it out of my mind and surprise I was right. I’ve read many of Ms. Loren’s books and she gets better with each new book. 5*
Death’s Hexed Hobnobs #2 – The story takes place a year after Death’s Dark Horse ends. This book is amazing! I felt like I was reading a Butcher novel. This well written, action paced, suspense filled novel kept me prisoner to its pages. The plot twisted like an angry rodeo bull and the suspense never stopped, along with humor thorough out the story . The characters, while well thought out in DDH, become stronger and evoke all sorts of emotions from the reader. I can’t wait to see what #3 is has in stock for the reader.5*
Death’s Endless Enchanter #3 – This book starts right where Death’s Hexed Hobnobs ended. Well written, filled with suspense and intrigue, humor and well developed characters with realistic dialog – (not stupid dialog). Although the book concludes the issues that arise in this book, it’s a cliffhanger and the book doesn’t end the way the reader would expect. 5*
Death’s Ethereal Enemy #4 – This book starts a month after Death’s Endless Enchanter ended. Well written, intriguing with the suspense starting later in the chapters than usual, but making up for the delay. Still with humor, but some darkness appearing and new revelations as the plot twists and the pace picks up. 5*
Death’s Last Laugh #5 – This is a whooper! There’s a lot happening in this book: action; intrigue; suspense; romance; and humor. Another well-written story that keeps the reader immersed in the pages, and too soon, the end is reached. This very substantial book with it’s well thought out twists and turns, along with the continuous growth of the characters makes it hard to put the book down. So ease up with the tea. I’m so glad I contacted the author to review her books. She hasn’t disappointed me yet and she has traveled a long was from Larch Hall. 5*
Terrific tale of January Chevalier’s start in the bounty hunter profession. I plan to read them all. I hope that you do as well.

Great Prequel to Wonderful Series – Read After Book 1
This short novella is an informative prequel to what is turning out to be a fun paranormal series. Although this is book 0, I recommend reading it after book 1. This is not my favorite genre, but I am greatly enjoying this series. I am finding it very entertaining and am not getting nightmares from the stories. This author is one of my favorites, so I thought I’d give this series a try. I am so glad that I took the chance. I will be reading the rest of this series and enjoying each one!
