When a series of grisly deaths in Alaska suggests werewolves
may be involved, Jeremy sends Clay and Elena to check things
out and take care of the mutts responsible for the killings.
While looking up some old pack mates, Clay and Elena stumble
on a crime that shakes them to their core. The mutts are
killing pack members and obviously have a plan to take over
or replace the existing pack.
Tracking down the mutts is easy enough; they're not big on
finesse. But what they lack in brains, they more than make
up for in single-minded determination to eliminate all
obstacles, starting with Clay and Elena. The Land of the
Midnight Sun is cruel and unforgiving if you're not up to
the challenge.
On their own turf, no one is better than the Beta and his
mate, but in the frozen forests, there are wild magics at
work that keep the pair off balance and uneasy. And a beast
that's as much myth as animal roams the land, guarding his
boundaries against interlopers. He doesn't much care for the
sudden influx of werewolves in his territory; they upset the
balance of his world and threaten to draw attention to it.
He wants them gone; quickly, quietly and as permanently as
necessary.
FROSTBITTEN is one of the best books I've read all summer.
Armstrong keeps her world fresh with every story, not an
easy thing to do. There are few series that don't degenerate
after four or five books in. This one keeps going, fresh and
strong. The Women of the Otherworld series keeps moving and
changing. Apparently, the word stasis is not part of this
talented author's vocabulary.
This review is from the Hardcover edition.
The Alaskan wilderness is a harsh landscape in the best of
conditions, but with a pack of rogue werewolves on the
loose, it’s downright deadly.
Elena Michaels, the Pack’s chief enforcer, knows all too
well the havoc “mutts” can wreak.
When word comes of a series of humans apparently killed by
wolves near Anchorage, Elena and Clay are sent to check
things out. But they find more than they bargained for among
the snow and trees of the savage Alaskan wilderness.
