I’m currently teaching college students who are too young to have watched Buffy first time around. They don’t get any of my Buffy jokes. It is very sad.
For lovers of Dark Urban Fantasy a group of authors have gotten together to set up a blogspot here. Over the month of June they are giving away approximately 70 books. So it is worth dropping by.
I notice that Melissa Marr’s name is on that list. I’m a big fan of her writing since I discovered her first book Wicked Lovely.
Have you come across any books lately that swept you away from the real world and into another one that looked a lot like ours but there was a dark side?
Melissa’s Wicked Lovely series is such good value, I totally am hooked on Niall. Will have to check out that link.
Natalie, I think Marr’s books work because her Fae have the danger and ‘otherness’ of the early pagan world. They don’t feel civilised.
Let me know if you find any more authors like her.
