Title: Bloody Disappointment
Review: Like many, I can hardly wait for a new Nora Roberts and have just about every book she has written. The rest of this trilogy won't be added to the pile. The lush sensuality, the complex characters, the interesting men and the snappy dialog are in short supply here. But there is lots and lots of blood and gore pouring out of nearly every page. The plot has a bunch of people training to fight vampyres--cutesy spelling is hers--and barely repelling them. They announce they must train better and get stronger, and more vampyres come and are repelled. They train some more, and more vampyres do battle, with ever more blood gushing. Then the book just stops. The dark side of the author usually enhances her books, but this time it disgusts and bores. I am in mourning--not for the mob of the slain, but for the fun and excitement we have come to expect.
