David McK (3801 KP) rated Secret Invasion in TV

The latest - at the time of reviewing - of Marvel's Disney+ exclusives, and the first time where Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury takes central stage.

Here, Fury uncovers a Skrull dissident plot to infiltrate the Earth and wipe out humanity, and has to - somehow - stop that from occurring.

Unfortunately, despite an intriguing premise (shapeshifters), the series as a whole wastes it's cast somewhat, with more than a few WTF (and not necessarily in a good way) moments over the course of its run.

Described (by 2 different authors, in the blurb on the back of the book in this edition) as "A unique take on the werewolf mythos, on the Norse pantheon an on magic itself. An enthralling, mesmeric book" and "A fresh take on the werewolf myth ... Brutal and relentlessly original", I have to say: this novel was nothing at all like I expected. Where I was expecting an excting tale of Vikings, shapeshifters and magic, instead I got a slow, torpid and (sometimes) impenetrable read instead. The first in a planned series of such books, I doubt I'll be looking for any of the sequels.

3.5 stars, mainly because Suzanne's books can be too long for my liking a lot of the time and because I got fed up of reading the sex scenes.

I'm pretty picky about my shifter books, preferring vampires to shapeshifters most days, and this one was good but I felt it went on too long.

Character wise I think I liked Marcus the most, though I couldn't really explain why. I also liked Dante. In fact, most of the guys were pretty cool but I did have favourites.

Other than wanting to read book 4, Marcus' book, I haven't decided if I want to read the rest of the series yet.
