OMG! I just can't believe it is really over. I feel like crying because I really don't want this amazing series to end. I still have this lovely dream where Rachel Vincent comes and tells me not to worry because the best spin off ever is coming, and with all this amazing characters in it so we wont have to miss it this much. Why does it have to end? I love this series so much! But I guess that's what made this author get so high in my ranking, she knew when exactly to finish the series and how to tide every loose end. She didn't keep writing books in it till we got bored, no, she finished it in it's best moment, and that's what makes this author such a terrific writer IMHO.
I don't even know where to start. Definitely not talking about the plot as there are already hundreds of reviews that do that. I'll start by saying that this has been one the best Urban Fantasy series I have read. Yes, that's just about it, no doubts about that statement I just made. I know many of you know how obsessed I am with other UF series but it's not the same. Usually my favs in UF have much romance in it, like guild hunters or night huntress series, and I am a huge fan of romance. I never, ever enjoy a series if it has not romance in it. This was the first time. Because let's be clear, the romance department in this series is almost null. So then how could I have enjoyed this series so much?It was all about the plot. It was so well developed that it was amazing how real it felt. And that's what was best about this series, no huge super powers or hypothetical situations, it just felt like a were-cat would come any minute and scare the shit out of you any moment,lol. The best thing about this series is that it makes you really love it for being Urban Fantasy, not for the romance, not for the characters, but for the plot, that's what you will love the most about this series.
I loved this series so much! And it's going to be extremely hard to say goodbye. If any of you have not read it yet, please do if you trust my taste at all, I promise you'll love it! Even though I must admit that books 1 and 2 were very slow and never made me thought this would become on of the best series I read.
I don't even wanna stop writing the review because I know it will be the final closure to this amazing series! I'm so sad! LOL. Please of of you who have not read it yet, let me know everything you think about it once you do. I'll go to the shifters group now and share my sadness with others that feel the same way, *sigh*.

"Well the time has come. I have been delaying this read long enough, I guess I just wanted to make this series last a little longer. It has been an amazing read, I'm ready for the closure. We better get news of the spin off soon!"
