I read a lot, like a LOT of shifter books, and the more obscure the better. So a Kraken was always gonna hit the spot for me! Add in a bear who doesn't like water, a family of brothers who proper take the mickie out of each other, and a whole big mystery of missing shifters, this was a sure-fire hit.
BAR one thing.
Questions! I'm left with a whole gaggle of questions!
And I can voice a couple of them, which for a Sayle book and me? Makes a change!
How old is Alexi? Or indeed Danik? It's clear they are old, comments made attest to that, but it wasn't revealed just HOW old they are.
And just what is it that Todd smirked about, that Alexi should have talked to Danik about, huh?
There are a couple more lurking at the back of my book mind, but I can't dig them out just yet!
BUT!!
Questions aside, I loved this. It's different, so works for me. I loved the easy acceptance of Danik and Alexi's bond with each other, and Alexi's brothers taking Danik in. Loved the water cuddles, and the tentacle thing! It is heavy on the smexy times, but I think they actually fit in well with the overall story line, rather than being chucked in for the sake of it! Loved Alexi's brothers teasing!
I enjoyed the missing shifter plot, and the way it leads into the next book, with Alexi's brother Victor. And there is clearly something going on between another brother and the guys that turned up to help find the other shifters!
Can't wait to read them!
Also, gonna check out Oliver's work, not sure I've read any!
So, because of those pesky questions that Sayle always leaves me with,
4 stars
