Commentary In Favor Of Books Forsaken by the Others (H&W Investigations #5)
The Others–vampires, werewolves, things that go chomp in the night–don’t just live in nightmares anymore. They’ve joined with he mortal world. And for private investigator Shiarra Waynest, that means mayhem…Have a one night stand with a vampire, and you can end up paying for it for eternity. P.I. Shiarra Waynest, an expert on the Others, knows that better than most. Yet here she is, waking up beside charismatic vamp Alec Royce with an aching head…and neck. Luckily, Shia has the perfect excuse for getting out of town–namely, a couple of irate East Coast werewolf packs who’d like to turn her into a chew toy.
On Royce’s suggestion, Shia temporarily relocates to Los Angeles. But something is rotten–literally–in the state of California, where local vampires are being attacked by zombies. Who could be powerful enough to control them–and reckless enough to target the immortal? Following the trail will lead Shia to a terrifying truth, and to an ancient enemy with a personal grudge…

Shia is formally with the vampire, Royce now. Before they can get too cuddly, Royce is forced to ship her off across the country to lay low with the vampire of L.A. Shia leaves with her best friend Sara, but instead of finding safe harbor they are forced to deal with Clyde, the vampire of L.A.s problems, namely his zombie problem.Forsaken by the Others is the fifth book in the H&W Investigations series. I would recommend reading the books before this one, although it isnt fully necessary.I'm really sorry about not liking the book, because the first 4 in the series were totally ok and I'm acquainted with Jess, who is a darling. But I just can't get over Shiarras insecurity and angst and stupidity ... Yes, she had to go through a lot of stuff, but instead of growing stronger and maturing and learning to deal with crises (which obviously are going to happen ALL THE TIME to her) she just gets more and more angsty and whiny, having mood swings and being paranoid ... I couldn't even
Reviewed by: Rabid Reads.Its an unspoken rule that every series has to have one blah installment, and unfortunately for H&W INVESTIGATIONS, this was it. Jess Haines engrossing writing style was still present, but FORSAKEN BY THE OTHERS was minus the tall glass of action that Ive become accustomed to, the love interest was mostly a no show, and Shias ultra-cool mofo rep took a lickin which all lead to this books stepping stone like quality. The cliffhanger ending only served to further
Forsaken By the Others (H&W Investigations) Jess Haines ARC supplied by Netgalley for honest review. I love urban/dystopian fantasy especially if it has a bit of romance in it. I'd read the first in this series when I originally stumbled on the genre a couple of years back when I ordered what I thought was a historical novel and it turned out to be fantasy.... Previously Id never read this genre, assuming it was all Star Trek or middle earth Elves...how wrong I was! Anyway I didn't enjoy the
Forsaken by the Others is an action-packed novel filled with mystery and intrigue. Shia has gone from worrying about keeping her PI agency afloat to dealing with vampire politics and all the Others in New York who would love to tear her to pieces. Rather unwillingly for someone whose life is in mortal danger, Shia relocates to Los Angeles temporarily with her good friend and fellow PI Sara. Being a woman of action, however, Shia can't stay still and finds herself investigating a case of zombies
Review from Backchatting BooksThe concept behind "Forsaken by the Others" was intriguing but I found the execution a little lacking. Royce sends private investigator Shiarra West and her sidekick Sara to Los Angeles for their own protection. Clyde, the vampire looking after them, demands they investigate a zombie infestation within his territory. He wont however give the ladies the tools they need to track down the necromancer properly and seems to know much more than he is letting on.Shia is a
ForesakenHow could Shiara's life get even more problematic? Even trying to be more stable has not stopped trouble from enlisting.
