Ryu's well - intentioned plans create mayhem, and Jane winds up embroiled in an investigation involving a spree of gruesome killings. All the evidence points toward another Halfling, much to Jane's surprise...
I am totally enjoying Nicole Peeler's series about Jane True. I enjoy Ms. Peeler's witty and entruiging writing style. Can't wait to read the next book. :)

Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.You know those series that you read the first book, and you like it ok. So, you decide to reserve judgment until after you've read the second. And then you are really glad you did because it's much better than the first. That was the case with Tracking The Tempest.
I liked Jane's character quite a bit more in this one. She still has all the defining qualities that I liked about her in the first book, but add some backbone. She refuses to be treated like a weakling, not matter what the others think of her and her powers. I really like that. I also enjoyed the fact that she is half human actually gave her the insight to be able to understand things the others couldn't. I enjoyed her relationship with Ryu the most. It becomes something other than just physical. I think was really hard for her to come to terms with all of that.
I liked that the storyline seems to have more direction. I had a feeling after the first book were it was going to go. But, it's always nice to get that reassurance. I like how much the culprit seems to be working in the shadows, never truly revealing themselves. I'm curious as to what will happen next.
I'm looking forward to the next in the series and what direction the story will take!

I have to say this book was the great! I was right there with Jane scared for her when Phaedra and her crew of freaks showed up. I also was screaming with laughter when she fell on her face after an encounter with a certain Satyr. And of course I was totally entranced when Ryu and Jane kept on doing what they do best (this is not a book for kids). This book was non-stop action and great character development. I highly recommend the series.

Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.In Rockabill, Maine hybrid Jane True struggles with learning she is half Selkie. She also tries to understand her new skill as a magic practitioner. However, Jane is also running out of time as purebreds detest Halflings; preferring the Selkie species to be perfectly pure. On the other hand Nell the gnome, Anyan the dog and Trill the kelpie train her on her new skills; though Jane thinks torture is a mire accurate description of their mentoring her.
Her beloved Ryu the vampire is on her side though he is in Boston on a homicide investigation. When she decides to visit her vampiric investigator, Jane never expected to become part of an inquiry he is making into Conleth the Halfling Ifrit, who escaped from a Dorchester lab that blew up right after he got out. Ryu thinks Conleth blew up the lab and has become a serial killer especially of Halflings, but Jane finds several other suspects who will not mind the murder of a nosy Halfling.
The latest Tempest urban fantasy (see Tempest Rising) is an excellent urban fantasy as the heat is on the heroine (and her lover) in Boston. The story line is fast-paced from the moment the heroine joins her "Impaler" lover in Boston and never slows down as the pair search for a paranormal serial killer. Readers will relish Tracking the Tempest as Jane seems truly to be in the eye of the perfect killer storm.

Liked the 1st book. Was not as impressed with book 2, Tracking the tempest. To much on bedroom scenes. Hope the others are'nt as heavy on the sex, don't get me wrong, sex is fine, but had not planned on that much. All she has is sex on her mind.

I love this series and the intrigue in this book was great. There are some full on laugh out loud moments that help keep this an incredibly entertaining series. It's also great to have a flawed, yet kick butt, heroine.

The only thing I didn't like about it was that there were some things during the investigation that were very obvious but somehow the investigators didn't know and I felt that it was too hard to believe that they wouldn't put that together. Other than I enjoyed it very much.
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.Another hit from Nicole Peeler! I loved the first book and the second one didn't disappoint.
This book starts a few months after book 1 ended and we follow Jane through her starting to learn magic from Nell the Gnome to going to Boston for the weekend to be with Ryu. That is when things start to really get interesting!! On a date with Ryu they start to get attacked by fireballs! This leads Jane into finding out about another halfling who now has seen Jane and wants her for himself. Jane is now in the middle of the investagation trying to find the halfling while trying to stay alive!
Most of the same characters are there from book 1 which is great..I loved her friend Iris and don't forget Anyan! This is a must read book that I throughly enjoyed. There was so much action, suspense and romance in this one that I gobbled this book up in hours!
I will point out though that when I read book 1 I was a total team Ryu fan but now after reading book 2 I have to say I changed my mind...and I am now on team Anyan supporter!
Look for a team button to be coming soon for Team Anyan!
Froggarita's Bookcase
This book starts off shortly after the end of Tempest Rising, book one of the series. Jane is training with Nell (a gnome) and Trill (a kelpie), but having a hard time getting a handle on her powers. But she is making progress, as she still has both eyebrows!
Jane's romantic Valentine's Day weekend with her vampire boyfriend Ryu is interrupted when they're attacked by fire balls. Suddenly, Jane is smack dab in the middle of an investigation, Alfar political games, and trying to avoid people determined to kill her! She wonders why people keep trying to kill her, and I tend to agree with her that it's not fun. Ever since she discovered that she is a Halfling, Jane's life has been anything but dull!
We see a little more of Jane's succubus friend Iris, her bookstore friends Grizzie and Tracy, the barghest Anyan, and also meet Ryu's team of deputies. I especially liked Julian, another Halfling, and Caleb, a satyr. Nicole is great with fleshing out secondary characters and making them well-rounded after only a brief description. Love these guys!
Jane still has her great sense of humor, and I love some of the comments she makes when I would probably be shaking in my boots. Of course, she's shaking in her boots while making those snarky comments, but I'd be frozen in fear as well, so she's way braver than me! She's also something of a gourmet, as there was a strange pause when we have sort of a weird cooking segment with Anyan. I'm thinking that Nicole was hungry when she wrote this scene, as she describes what they're cooking in so much detail that I could probably replicate the meal in my kitchen! Was a strange little scene that didn't seem to fit, and stuck in my head for some reason.
Gave this book a 5/5 as I finished it in one sitting! Couldn't put it down, and I couldn't wait to see what happened next! Jane is still a run-away-and-hide type of girl, but is becoming more confident and growing as a person. While aware of her physical limitations, she's smart and figures out a few things that Ryu and his experienced team missed. Go Jane! Loved this book, and highly recommend it as a fast, fun fantasy read!

My thoughts...Tracking The Tempest is my kind of book-interesting characters, magical worlds, and just the right amount of humor.
Tracking The Tempest is book two in Nicole Peeler's Jane True series. If you are new to the series, I recommend you start with Tempest Rising. This second book has snark, more magic, move adventure, and more romance. Jane leaves the comfort of her Rockabill home to spend some time in Boston. This change in setting really opened up the doors for a bunch of new paranormal creatures, both good and evil. We meet probably one of the scariest beings in paranormal literature in Boston, Graeme. This character gave me chills and made me sleep with the light on for a week. We still get to read about our favorites including Iris, Nell, Grizzie, and Anyan (sigh). Let's talk about Anyan. In book one we learned he was smart, cunning,mysterious, and sexy. In book two, he is all of that and then some. I can't wait to learn more about this character in Tempest's Legacy. Did I mention sexy?
Tracking The Tempest gives readers plenty of page-turning action. The new halfling called Conleth keeps everyone on their toes. Boston provides the perfect backdrop for a good mystery. This one is perfect for readers who like to solve a crime while enjoying a little romance. Peeler's magical world grows more complex and interesting. She immerses readers into the fantasy without confusing them. Jane's character growth is reflected in her increased abilities, personal strength, and blooming confidence. I look forward to seeing how her characters continues to grow.
At the end of the book, readers get a taste of book three, Tempest's Legacy. I am not sure when it will be released, but I do know it is not soon enough.
This book entertains with an amusing/engaging heroine, sympathetic/attractive supporting characters, wonderfully chaotic action sequences, non-stop comedy (ranging from bubbly chick humor to bawdy, self-effacing comments to laugh-out-loud slapstick), a twisting/fast-paced plot and interesting character development.
The story starts with the flighty heroine, Jane True, training her supernatural powers under the tutelage of Rockabill's resident gnome and, then, leaving for a Valentine's weekend in Boston. Before the romantic weekend with her lover, (a vampire-like baobhan sith named Ryu), reaches an uncontrolled sizzle, Jane and Ryu are attacked by a rouge ifrit/human (fire) halfling, named Conleth, who's escaped lab imprisonment and systematically burned to death all the people connected to him. He's targeting Ryu, the fae investigator charged with the task of stopping the carnage. Jane is literally caught in the cross-fire.
As the tale progresses, Conleth becomes obsessed with the half-selkie Jane, and stalks her while systematically picking off all beings with any connection to the lab operation, (even though he really has no way to know about all of the upper echelon or tangentially related people). Meanwhile, a contingent of undesirable fae, (led by a diminutive, red-eyed and bald Alfar woman), arrives to 'assist' and possibly replaced Ryu. Sent by the Alfar Spymaster Jarl, (who was closely associated with the naga/snake fae who committed the half-blood murders in the first book), the contingent's presence is highly suspect to Jane and the shape-changing barghest, Anyan, who arrives to give additional assistance and recommences Jane's supernatural training.
The story of Jane's personal growth, increasing confidence and ability to assert herself despite Ryu's protective attitude seamlessly intertwines with action/mystery plot. The tale reaches an explosive, supernaturally charged climax that reveals the fae contingent's true purpose as well as Jane's innate sea powers.
In regard to the romantic sub-plot(s), the interactions between Jane and Ryu range from hot to funny to occasionally touching until Ryu issues an ultimatum, and Jane is forced to recognize her own desires and act accordingly. Further, there's some well-described romantic tension between Jane and Anyan.
This is a highly entertaining and satisfying story that I wholeheartedly recommend to any urban fantasy fan.
Jane has been training with Nell, Rockabill's Gnome, for the four months between Tempest Rising's end and now. She's learning; shields, creating glamours, and mage balls of light. Jane is the happiest she has been in a long, long time; with monthly rendezvous with Ryu, training, swimming, and taking care of her father, along with working at the Bookstore with her friends. Jane is starting to settle into her super live in the paranormal world. Although, she still thinks on the naga's murders from Tempest Rising - knowing deep down there had to be more behind the murders with Jarl than lead to believe. Ryu sent Jane a romantic invitation to come to his home in Boston for a lavish Valentines Day with him. While on their romantic evening out they are attacked by a man named Conleth, as Ryu believes. The secret Jane's been keeping from Ryu comes out in the open...
I was so glad to be back in Rockabill with Jane True and all the sow named places. I also really enjoyed how Nicole took Jane out of her comfort zone and introduced us to so many new characters and ideas.
We get to meet a whole new set of characters, Ryu's deputies and a few Alfar crew members. I really loved meeting Ryu's crew of deputies. Their abilities where all unique. I loved Julian and how he related with Jane. I enjoyed Daoud and Caleb and Jane's reaction to both of them. Then we also have Conleth, who has a long not so nice history to bring him to the point of dangerous he is. And it is all described to us very well, through the investigation Ryu and Jane undertake.
Jane is a character I really enjoyed in Tempest Rising, but here in Tracking the Tempest she has grown a great deal for me. She's more open and comfortable with herself. Jane is learning how to protect herself in this new world she is learning about and doing rather well at it. Even when Jane is taken out of her element she still shines. As you read you know Jane is 'human' as she is afraid, and still has the tendency to want to flee rather than fight. And in some of her tight spots, I would too.
The humor... Nicole is great at adding the one liners and quick clever, sarcastic, and/or sexy comments for the characters. I think I had a smile on my face through a majority of the book at all the quick jokes and answers or comments Jane and the other characters made. I absolutely loved the scene of Jane slipping on ice as she gets out of the car. I laughed out loud while I read it.
And there is action to. This book doesn't sit still at all. There is always something happening to keep you flipping the pages. The book is a fantastic fast paced fun ride with terrific action and love.

Hello all. I'm new to the forum, brewed a couple batches in the past. I have always been interested in foraging, I collect mushrooms, berries, edible plants and such. What I was considering was using Phragmites, a common reed (and pesky invasive), to malt and, hopefully produce a batch of beer with. Edible plants books say you can make flour with it in the same way you could with wheat or barley, so naturally, I immediatly thought it might be fun to try with beer. Malting grains is a process I have never done, though I have done a bit of reading about it and think that it should be possible. Has anyone here experimented with that sort of thing or just have any comments or tips? Think it is even worthwhile to try? I would love to hear anything you guys think about this. Thanks, Eric
Welcome. Agreed, malting will be the hardest part of the process. But if you can find a way to malt it, I say go for it.
Do you think standard malting directions, like those found here BYO - Make Your Own Malt would work?
That should work. I can't imagine your efficiency will be very high, but give it a go.
I've read the phragmites communis shoots can be heated and a swwet taffy like substance can be gotten. My guess is that would be a simple sugar. Would it leave any flavor, or ferment out completely is the question.
Too much too fast to keep track of...
Good point. I wonder if the species matters at all (probably not) the common species around here is australis. Perhaps using other grains in conjunction with it might be beneficial, if not necessary.
I finally registered on this site so I could respond to this thread. I too was curious about using phrag as a grain source. I'm fairly new to brewing but I'm anxious to go all grain-the whole purist thing. Here's what I read on the topic of Phrag: australis and communis are likely the same species (some sort of taxonomy debate). Most or all of its parts are edible. It's pith is sugary so one may be able to augment the wort with this without going to extract or going outside the plant. Efficiency problem potentially solved. I'm not so much concerned about the plant as I am the plants environment. Aside from its invasive qualities its also known for its bioretention qualities. It efficiently takes up pollutants. For this reason I will not be harvesting adjacent: large parking lots, businesses known for using or producing chemicals (dry cleaners), heavily fertilized/chemically treated lawns, or gray/brown water treatment ponds. I will be making this wort within the year. I will update this thread if someone doesn't beat me to it. Jarrod
If you can't beat it: eat it! As somewhat of an amateur ecology geek Phragmites is the bane of my existence (in NW Ohio we don't have Kudzu... yet) I doubt you would have any trouble finding enough Phrag grains for a batch of beer but winnowing, malting, drying, kilning, milling them looks like it would be a serious PITA because the seeds are so small. If you want to do more than 1 or 2 gallons this will mean a LOT of work (not that it isn't worth it in the end I know, I know- we do not brew for convenience) also gathering a significant quantity will likely mean putting on a pair of waders since it is a wetland grass. My humble advice is to clean the seed and roast it to your liking and then mill it and use as an unmalted adjunct. I too love to utilize weeds as well (I have a 5 gal bucket of curly dock seeds from last summer I need to do something with) and I roasted a fair harvest of dandelion root a few days ago to use in a couple brews. As for malting, I advocate that as well but it is very time consuming... I tried malting/ kilning gluten free grains one time (2# buckwheat; 1# quinoa; 1# amaranth) and it turned out quite successful but it was a ton of work for a 2.5 gal batch where at least half the fermentables came from honey. If you haven't stumbled across it yet, the folks in the gluten free forum have an awesome thread on malting your own. I also read an article (I can't find it) about malting amaranth and grinding it to meal and baking it into cakes at various temperatures and subsequently using them for brewing. That is also a fairly viable option for any wild grains and I may try this with quinoa which tasted the most converted (from floury to sweet) of the three types of grain I experimented with. Regardless of how you choose to use phragmites be sure to go out there with a bag of wild rice seed and a shovel; dig up the rhizomes and sow the rice!

free up but shipping this to Canada... Almost 100% that this will get seized at the border as Canadian laws are stupid when it comes to importing/exporting Airsoft.

3 It's OKexhibit666 | 17/08/2007 | See all exhibit666's reviews (1)Nile being one of my favourite bands, I was extremely excited about their move to Nuclear Blast. It's OK but not a scratch on the last 3 albums. Some of the feeling has been lost that were apparent in the Relapse releases. Although Nile remain as technical as ever, this album doesn't satisfy me as much as the older stuff.On Nuclear blast of course Karl Sanders may have enough cash to finally get himself to Egypt.
5 BRUTAL!MasterD | 17/09/2007 | See all MasterD's reviews (1)The finest hour for Nile an instant classic combining the brutality and production of Annihilation of the wicked with a more ominous epic feel of black seeds of vengence give the songs serious bite with a hint of epic sweping grandeur. x

I`m have a report that is exported to excel, the report is created using ireport 1.2.8. The excel output seems ok at first sight, but all numeric values are inside a cell with "general" format in excel. I want the numeric values to be formatted as number in excel as well, in ireport the corresponding values are bigdecimal.
What I`ve done so far is check the is detect cell type in export options, but it didn`t help. Then I checked my jrxml manually and added
(this property should probably have been there allready since I checked the detect cell type in Ireport, but it wasn`t there)
But no luck, even when I added the property manually the xls output file still is formatting my bigdecimal values as general and not number. Any ideas? I have to use version 1.2.8. I will apreciate clarifying responses. Thanks.
<property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.detect.cell.type" value="true" />
3 Answers:
Hi ,
I use iReport version 3.0.0 ,Detect cell type works fine in this version.Can you update the tool version and check this out.
I tried Ireport 3.0.0, using this version it seems to work. The cell in excel are still general though, but it seems that they are number not text. Does not version 1.2.8 support this kind of format handling? Or is it a bug?
I'm having the same issue using version 4.1.3.
I make the adjustments to the properties and set "net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.detect.cell.type" to true. I also adjust the pattern of the cell to "#,##0.00".

On any given day, at any give hour, you can find countless people on Wilmington's walking trails, tennis courts, and other facilities maintained by the Parks and Recreation Department. Department leaders are creating a Master Plan for 2009-2014 and held their first public input meeting Monday night.
They want to hear comments and suggestions about the future goals and objectives of the program. The Mater Plan will focus on what new parks and recreation programs, services, and areas to provide, along with what changes to existing ones, and how to pay for all of it.
Suggestions at Monday's meeting included a petting zoo at Greenfield Park, more soccer fields, better-lit fields, a natatorium, and more bike trails.
Most people WWAY spoke with in Halyburton Park Monday evening said they were very satisfied with the parks and recreation facilities they use, but there's always room for improvement.
Kelly Lawson often rollerbaldes through Halyburton Park. She said, "I'd kind of like the sign that says 'bike and foot traffic only' to be reworded a little, 'cause I've had a few people fuss at me for rollerblading 'cause apparently rollerblading is kind of looped in with skaboarding and running people over and stuff."
Fred Bingham walks along Halyburton Park's walking trail. He wants to see a chance in how people cross the busy South 17th St. to get to the park. "There's people that come from right across the street and in order to get to this park they have to either take a cross a busy street where there's no crosswalk or anything, or else drive," he said.
Frank White and his wife take nightly walks at Halyburton Park and are starting to get concerned as it gets darker earlier. "The only thing that we would like to see is perhaps some lighting, so that especially during daylight saving time, we can come out and still get our three laps in each evening," said White.
There will be a second public input meeting on November 13 at 6:30 p.m. at the MLK Jr. Community Center at 401 South 8th St. You can submit comments to the following people:
Tara Duckworth, Superintendent of Wilmington's Parks and Recreation Division: 910-341-4612, firstname.lastname@example.com
Jim Herstine, Ph.D, Consultant for the Master Plan: 910-962-3283, firstname.lastname@example.com

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Hello Typophiles,
I've recently been commissioned to design a rich and exotic poster promoting the addition of a 'burger bar' to a trendy lounge in my hometown. I'm concentrating on typography and copy considering not much can be said about the humble burger through imagery.
As such I'd like your expert opinion on my kerning, letting and overall choice of Didot, Gotham and Archer as my inventory for the piece.
Any comments would be most valuably received,
Attachment | Size |
Picture 2.png | 46.95 KB |
I'd use would first suggest choosing between Archer and Didot.
I'd also not full-justify the bottom paragraph as it is throwing the balance off because of the spacing.
The balance at the top seems off too. The lightness of the Gotham isn't working with the heavy (because of the tightness) line of the Didot.
Don't we say "at Ruby's" and not "in Ruby's"?
Overall I like it, quite elegant.
Just 4 things to say, in my opinion, the "money can't buy happiness" is too tight and unbalanced despite I understand that you want it to come out.
Second thing is... why are you using 3 typefaces? I would use only 2, ther's no need to have 2 typefaces that are too close or haven't got enough diferences.
Third, on the text below, i see that you have a tight letter space but a normal word space... try to balance those 2 values or else you'll get some odd holes on the text block. Usually i use oh the justification these levels: 85-100-125 for word spacing and -5-0-5 for letter spacing, and then teak as necessary.
Last one... isn't the logo too big?
Good work :)
Edit: Tiffany posted first :D
I once heard, at a design conference, that one of the easiest ways to impart elegance is to track out leading and word spacing. You want to feel as if the type has room to breath, to tight and it looks uptight.
I also agree with Tiffany and Nuno, the balance is off (not to mention your logo isn't centered) and simplify your font choices.
Thank you as always for your valued commentary, I've adjusted the piece for some wording considerations (At rather than In Ruby's being one of them), and reduced the amount of typefaces to simply Gotham and Didot.
I'm also liking the idea of NOT including photography, and letting evocative text do the image conception for me. Anyway, I dont think a picture of a burger will ever do the typographical genius of these two typefaces justice :)
Latest version can be found here
Design aside, the 'even the cows would be proud' line kind of turns me off for some reason.
I would agree with the rest...make a version with 2 or even just 1 typeface.
The new version is better, though perhaps still a bit busy.
Another challenges is using a brown color pallet. That's always hard unless you are UPS.
Latest version can be found here
Paul would you mind uploading the images here. Some people do not have access to outside image hosting sites (myself included). Plus, adding your images here will maintain the archival quality of the post for anyone that might stumble across it in the future.

A Birder's Guide to Coastal Carolina
Author: John O. Fussell III
Description: A popular destination for bird-watchers from across the country, the coastal region of North Carolina is a seasonal home to approximately 400 species of birds, some of which are found more easily here than anywhere else in the United States. A Birder's Guide to Coastal North Carolina is the first guide to the prime bird-watching spots of the Tar Heel coast and nearby areas�including national seashores, national forests and wildlife refuges, state parks and game lands, and other public areas. Written for both casual and serious birders, the book features detailed site guides to the entire coastal region, including the Outer Banks. John Fussell provides an annotated checklist, habitat information, and bar graphs indicating seasonal abundance for all regularly occurring species. The book also includes a chapter on the 140 most sought-after species on the coast. Fussell describes the best places and conditions�seasonal, weather, and tidal�for finding these popular varieties. Detailed maps of most of the major birding sites complement the text. (From Amazon.com)
Living Beaches of Georgia and the Carolinas
Author: Blair Witherington
Description: Georgia and the Carolinas beckon curious beachcombers with over 600 miles of wave-swept Atlantic coastline. These beaches offer more than a sandy stroll amidst stunning scenery�they are alive! As ever-changing ribbons of sand, these beaches foster unique life-forms and accept beguiling castaways from a vast marine wilderness. Mysteries abound. What is this odd creature? Why does the beach look this way? How did this strange item get here? Living Beaches of Georgia and the Carolinas satisfies a beachcomber�s curiosity within a comprehensive yet easily browsed guide covering beach processes, plants, animals, minerals, and manmade objects. The guide is written in a familiar style and is illustrated with distribution maps and over a thousand color photos. (From Amazon.com)
