Ten books into the series and Chloe Neill is still able to
build upon the vastly unique world of the Chicagoland
Vampire series. BLOOD GAMES begins with some friendly
competition between Merit and her lover, Ethan. But the
events are quick to make a turn for the worse as a sudden
death changes the pace of the game.
Tasked with solving the murder, Merit and Ethan soon
discover that there are more details to this crime as the
number of deaths mount, resulting in a chase to find the
killer.
Meanwhile, Merit is concerned about Ethan who seemed to be
hiding something from her. Though he promises her that she
will forever be his, his actions continue to spark
suspicion, making Merit wonder if she can trust Ethan when
he won't tell her everything in times of trouble.
It is clear that Neill always have a clear plan in her mind
before she begins writing her books because there is no word
or chapter out of place or wasted. Everything is perfectly
paced and tautly written, which helps in engaging the
readers with the mystery in this story. Neill weaves an
intricate web of events that never once felt convoluted or
confusing. In fact, I don't think I've read a Chicagoland
Vampires novel as quickly as I did with this one.
While each instalment brings immense excitement, Neill also
continues to bring drama to the romance, keeping things
fresh between the protagonists. Yet the book ends with an
intriguing note that not only causes worry and alarm for our
main protagonists, but will cause readers to be intrigued by
the route Neill plans to take next. BLOOD GAMES is a fast-
paced romp surely to engage any reader!
While Merit didn’t choose to become a vampire or Sentinel of Cadogan House, she vowed to fight for her House and its Master, and she’s managed to forge strong alliances with powerful supernaturals across Chicago. But even though Merit has had wild adventures, this may be her deadliest yet.... A killer is stalking Chicago, preying on humans and leaving his victims with magical souvenirs. The CPD hasn’t been able to track the assailant, and as the body count rises, the city is running out of options. Vampires and humans aren’t on great terms, but murder makes for strange bedfellows. Can Merit find the killer before she becomes a target?
