My prediction was correct; I skipped much.This second of the trilogy is essentially the story of the likable Fox. I knew this was loaded with romance starting out and thus predicted I would skip over the sappy parts of this book with the end in sight. That said, I still wanted to know what happened so on to #3. I was curious as to how the demon was demolished so, after listening with interest (but not enthusiasm after the first half)to "Blood Brothers" I read "The Hollow," the second in this trilogy. As I said in my review of "Blood Brothers" I am not a fan of romance. It's good that Fox is likable because there is just way too much information about every concern in his life along with excruciating dialogue and details of his romance with Layla.Since I have now read all three of the books, I have to say this is the weakest of them all.
Author failed to make me care about the problem, too many characters that also do not seem to matter. I used to love Nora Roberts, I couldn't put her books down from first page to last.
Why introduce this twist to the story and then not do anything with it.
For example, once Fox agreed to be the surrogate father for his sister & her partner/girlfriend's baby, shouldn't that have figured somehow into the centuries-old-evil yarn. I am pretty much done with Nora Roberts after years of reading her faithfully.
This series is so boring -- and this book was the worst. The way these people talk is beyond annoying -- it is like somebody besides Nora wrote it.
After he agreed it ceased to be a factor.
Stand by Me meets The Omen with the exception of Dynamite Characters. Evil vs Good takes on a whole new meaning with this series. If you like Nora Robert's fantasy meets reality books you'll love this series. This series is wonderful. If you like mysterious things that go 'bump' in the night or the day this one is for you. The town setting, the courage, and the family values makes this series a keeper.
The book arrived much sooner than expected and was in great condition.I would buy again from this vender.
They have is all. I would recommend anyone to read this set of books. Excuse me, I have to get back to the story. After reading the first book in The Sign of Seven Trilogy, "Blood Brothers", I just knew that I had to read the other two in the set. The are spine tingling, full of excitement and you can't put them down once you start reading. I am now a Nora Roberts fan and can hardly wait to read more.
