kharlan3's review against another edition
(m/m, werewolves, romance). Kirt Graves' narration makes this book. Gordo feels so lived in. (spoilers to follow in thread)
Things I like about Ravensong: a kinda flawed mom (it seems like otherwise, every mom in the series is perfect and every father either SUPER sucks or significantly sucks). I also really like meeting Rico, Tanner, & Chris as children. The characterization of the hunters is compelling, and the set up of Caswell folks working with them does a really good job slowly building the creeping dread. Overall, it's a great setup for the next books.
Things I like less: the word "lowly" as in "growled lowly". IDK why I hate it. Robert Livingstone doesn't seem to have a single redeeming quality. Parts of the sex scene really don't work for me. And I'm not 100% convinced about the WHY of Mark and Gordo. Also- where in the Ravensong narrative does the moment that Ox recounts in Wolfsong happen where he sees Gordo and Mark go to the movies?
