Book Description

Black Bird February 2, 2010
R to L (Japanese Style). He loves her blood, but does her love her?!

There is a world of myth and magic that intersects ours, and only a special few can see it. Misao Harada is one such person, and she wants nothing to do with magical realms. She just wants to have a normal high school life and maybe get a boyfriend. All that changes one day when Misao is attacked by a demon. Her childhood friend Kyo suddenly returns to save her and tend to her cuts--with his tongue! It turns out Misao is the bride of prophecy, whose blood gives power to the demon clan who claims her. But most demons want to keep her power for themselves--by eating her! Now Misao is just trying to stay alive...and decide if she likes it when Kyo licks her wounds.

Volume 3: Misao is starting to trust her heart where Kyo is involved, especially after he gives her one of his primary feathers. It isn't just her first present from him, it's a magic talisman that will keep her safe when he's not nearby! Misao is elated to be able to go to school without the fear of being eaten, just like a normal teenage girl. But as her feelings for Kyo deepen, she starts to realize that as his bride she will have to leave her human life behind--including her family!

5.0 out of 5 stars Old And New Collide In Black Bird, October 22, 2010
By 
J Astin (Washington State) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Black Bird, Vol. 3 (Paperback)
Black Bird Volume Three opens to Misao's new fears amidst her budding romance with Kyo. Complicating matters is the return of Kuzunoha, a demon nemesis from the first volume who claims he's changed his ways and is willing to give Misao the information she wants most dearly. Her worries about what will happen to her if she becomes the bride are overwhelming, especially when she considers her parents and friends. But she isn't the only one worried about her fate, as Kyo and his demon crew are wondering the same thing. And with nefarious plotting and a new demon, everyone has their hands full. The end is another cliffhanger that could change everything, leaving the reader curious.

In this volume, both Misao's parents are featured, as well as Kensuke, a demon connected to a previously featured foe whose intentions may or may not be pure. Kyo is as always focused on Misao, and now especially what will happen when he makes her his bride, something that concerns Misao very much. But with battles and treachery, it seems as if they won't learn anything of value.

This is probably the bloodiest volume yet, so if it's fighting and blood you want, this will be your favorite. The quest for knowledge and the unsureness of the future feature heavily, though there are some funny moments, though there's more that's sweet than giggle-worthy. A good read which really makes you wonder about the future of the series.
