Fury's Kiss by Karen Chance
4.0
Fury’s Kiss is the third book in Karen Chance’s Midnight’s Daughter Series, featuring Dorina Basarab. It starts off with Dory waking up in a strange place, no recollection of what has occurred, or who has come to rescue her. Her lucidity is short lived, however, and she wakes up in her own bed, absolutely horrified that she is wearing….pink.
During an impromptu meeting with Mircea, Kit, Ray and Louis-cesare (with Claire looking on disapprovingly) we discover that Dory was sent out on a mission for the senate the night before, and out of 11 MASTER vampires, she was the only one left alive. And they want to know why. Dory’s position with the senate is put on “temporary suspension” by Mircea until he gets answers.
For risk of spoilers, I don’t want to reveal too much about the details of this novel. One event kind of leads to another here, and it was definitely an exciting read. However, I want to point out the major highlight of the novel. We get a much deeper look into Dory’s dual nature as a human/vampire hybrid. While it’s been discussed in previous novels, it’s the highlight of this one, with several exciting surprises. I love the unlikely partnership between Dory and Ray as well, they are hilarious! Reminds me of Billy Ray in the Cassie Palmer novels.
This novel keeps in pace with Chance’s normal style of non-stop page turning action. But beyond that, I think if you follow the series, this book is worth the read not only for the developments in Dory’s character, but a few events that put the vampire world on it’s head, and I can’t wait to read about in the Cassie Palmer series as well. Chance explains on her website, that she almost looks at these as one series, but with two different main characters. I was impatiently waiting for the next book in the cassie series, but after reading this, I am anxious for the new release in both.
