UP FROM THE GAVE, the final installment to the Night
Huntress series will have readers feeling both great
excitement and sadness as the series comes to a thrilling
conclusion.
Cat and Bones are extraordinary characters. As a trained
killer and an influential vampire, Cat and Bones have
quickly become Urban Fantasy's ultimate power couple. In the
seventh book of the series, Madigan, a rogue CIA agent has a
personal vendetta against Cat and has taken her former
colleagues as hostages. It is up to Cat Crawfield and her
husband Bones to locate the group of men before they are
gravely hurt. However, it's not that easy, especially when
Cat's Uncle Don won't divulge what he knows about their
friends' disappearances or what kind of secrets Madigan is
hiding.
This leaves them with little choice but to head to New
Orleans again and ask for assistance from Marie Laveau,
Queen of the ghouls. As twists and turns occur at every
corner, Frost takes readers on one last journey with her
fans, reminding us of why we fell in love with the Night
Huntress series in the first place.
In what is one of the stronger books of the series, Jeaniene
Frost explores the dynamics of Cat and Bones's relationship
once more while also racing against time in an attempt to
rescue their best friends from a dangerous fate. As they
discover disturbing revelations about what Madigan has been
researching and experimenting on, the introduction of a new
character could potentially start a dangerous war, adding
further pressure on Cat and Bones as their time runs out.
In addition to the intricate plot and suspense, romance has
become a key component in this series. I'm glad Frost didn't
add in unnecessary bickering or fighting to create tension
in this last book. Instead, readers see just how well Cat
and Bones work together. It would have been nice to
see a final scene focusing on the romance as the series
waved its last farewell. However, I do believe that Frost
approached this book in the right way.
UP FROM THE GRAVE possess all that loyal Night
Huntress readers would want -- fast-paced action,
thrilling twists and turns, and an epic romance between two
powerhouse personalities.
