Hmm...

In not sure about this one. The first one was good, I gave it five stars, but this one was really drawn out and is turning into a reverse harem style series. I struggled from early one and it didn't really get any better for me.

I don't think I'll be continuing the series.

I realize this novella is an important part of the series, but I found myself bored and wanting to skip it altogether. This, of course, is my own fault and not Victoria's - the correspondence was so real.

I love the snarkiness and inside jokes the characters have in this series. 'Bible study' and 'Gollum' being really good ones. If you wonder what that is read the series. Not just the book but the whole series. Armstrong creates real and likable characters. She uses humor in the right wayto make thesebooks throughly enjoyable.

Pretty good kids movie
Not as good as the first movie, the story line was lacking the funniness the first movie in this series had. The minions make the movie, without them the movie would not have been as good.
  
This comes in the middle of a series, but it was one of my bargain buys from The Works! Not what I was expecting, but I did really enjoy it!
  
I really enjoy this series of books. Not too heavy going and the right size to slip into a handbag to read on the train when going up to London!

Not a big fae fan

I obviously didn't read the description before buying this as I am not a big reader or fan of the fae. That being said, I did really enjoy the authors other series with a big tall tattooed fae in it--Ryker, I think his name was? Now that was an amazing series.

This one didn't pull me in half as much and I was really only reading if to the end to see what creatures they would all turn out to be. Kinda disappointed.

I won't be continuing the series.

"This is not murder. This is justice."

This is the latest in this series starring Connor Fraser and what a series it is!

No Quarter Given is a dark and gritty read that is not for the feint-hearted. It has some scenes that some may find distressing as they relate to child abuse so be warned, if this is a trigger for you, I would think before picking this up.

Having given that warning, this is intense, well written and fast paced with excellent characters but amongst the violence and tension, there is dark humour and moments of vulnerability for the main character.

This is an excellent addition to the series and thank you to Little, Brown Book Group via NetGalley for giving me the opportunity of reading and sharing my thoughts.

Must read!
While this book is not the first in the series ( you read 10 books before getting to this one) it will always be my favorite. Every book in the two series before this and the two prequels are amazing but this one is my favorite just because of the fact that I love Belgarath. He's just so entertaining and funny. Very enjoyable read!!
