From Booklist
Ever since horrible monsters called the Synestryn murdered her mother, kidnapped her youngest sister, and drove her other sister to madness, Andra Madison has rescued other children they have taken. One night, while attempting a rescue in a deserted warehouse, she is outmatched until three seemingly human men show up and dispatch the monster, but not soon enough to save the kidnapped child’s mind. One of the men, however, offers to heal the boy, which gives Andra hope for her sister Nika, who is dying, and soon the two sisters are in a hidden community. Paul, a Theronai, who has lived for centuries, is near the end of his days unless he finds a mate, and it appears Andra may be the one he’s been seeking. But if she refuses to bond with him, he’ll die. Second in the nonsequential Sentinel Wars series, this exerts much the same appeal as Christine Feehan’s Carpathian series, what with tortured heroes, the necessity of finding love or facing a fate worse than death, hot lovemaking, and danger-filled adventure. --Diana Tixier Herald

The Sapphire Lady,
By
This review is from: Finding the Lost: The Sentinel Wars (Mass Market Paperback)
I have to say that Burning Alive was my all time favorite debut novel this year. I was so excited when Finding the Lost came out I was preying that Shannon K. Butcher still spunked up her heroine and let the bad guys run wild. Well she did. This heroine is Andra whose very family was torn apart by the monsters, her youngest sister was taken, her middle sister is mentally scarred and rarely lucid, and she is fighting off the every growing nightmares added to her life with each child she can't find or save. Now for our tormented hero (Which by the way I absolutely love the tree of life tattoos and what they signify... so unique!) who is Paul, one of Drake's friend and on his last leaf so to speak. He's so determined to find his lady that he asks a blood sucking leech for help.
Unfortunately for him his destined mate is none other then demon killer Andra whose soul purpose in life is to protect and help her sister Nika. Paul understands he's being used, but is unable to prevent himself from taking Andra's measly vow of three days.... at least it's three days of pain free living and staying beside a beautiful woman. Normally I would say that three days is no time at all to meet and fall inlove with some one. But you throw in a war, a stolen child, Sybil's ever dreary foreshadows, and Madoc running havoc (Haha), you have an interesting mixture that can definitely move that process right along. I love how fast the plot line moves along and how the romantic scenes are cherries on the cake, not the whole cake itself. I'm still really curious as to what Gilda did that was so bad to her race? I'm thinking maybe.... no I can't say because I might be right then get yelled at for adding spoilers to future books ;-P Butcher definitely has a talent in spicing up war, and doesn't add unnecessary F-bombs or outrageous slang just to prove her males are hip. I cannot wait to find out about Lexi and Zach as well... yes there are many little allusions toward them. Give her a try if you liked the beginning of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, any of Lara Adrian's books, or the earlier Ghost Walkers.

a real page-turner...,
This review is from: Finding the Lost: The Sentinel Wars (Mass Market Paperback)
Sentinal warriors, although powerful beyond belief, must join with their life-mate before the last leaf on their life tree is gone. Paul, a warrior of the Sentinals, has only one leaf left on his life tree. If he doesn't find his "lady" quickly, he will wither and die in only a matter of days. Unfortunately, compatible women are in very short supply.
Logan, a vampire bloodhunter, has tracked one of these rare woman down - for a blood price of course - but Paul is uncertain that the woman will be compatible, or even willing, to become his life-mate. Andra has been battling monsters for years, ever since the monsters killed her mother and abducted her youngest sister. Now, Andra tracks the lost children who have been stolen by these monsters, and returns them to their parents, although she's never been able to find her own baby sister. It's a dangerous, ugly job, but since most people don't believe in monsters, there are few others who would sign up for the task. When Paul and Logan finally locate Andra, she's busy fighting Synestryn and in need of a little help in order to save the young boy who has been kidnapped by them. Paul is ready and willing to help, and hopeful that Andra is the "one" for him. Andra doesn't trust the men who've shown up, but she'll take whatever she can get to help the child - and possibly save her sister. Ignoring the danger to herself, she agrees to team up with Logan and Paul - even to become bonded to Paul if that is what it takes. Shanon K. Butcher has crafted another fast-paced exciting novel in FINDING THE LOST, the eagerly anticipated sequel to BURNING ALIVE. Her characters shine with realism, and the plot is fast-paced and full of twists and turns - a real page-turner. My only complaint is that Ms. Butcher weaves the story a bit too well, making the cliff-hanger ending hard to endure. I will again be eagerly awaiting the next installment to the series

Wow, what a phenomenal series!,
By nycchic120 (New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finding the Lost: The Sentinel Wars (Mass Market Paperback)
I picked up the first book in this series on a whim and got hooked. After reading the first page turning novel in a day, I quickly made time to head to the library and pick up the rest of the books in the series. They are *that* good! I plan on buying. These novels are definitely re-reads and just amazing!
The premise for the series is very original and creative. It's about three races called the Sentinels. The Sentinels protect humans from the Synestryn, who are basically demons hell bent on taking over the planet and keeping humans as cattle. Unfortunately, the demons are winning, and the Sentinels are losing their powers and decreasing in numbers. Each three of the races are dying in their own ways. These books are about how they save themselves through different ways and their fights against the demons. The characters are not cookie cutters of one another like so many other series in the paranormal field. The storylines are very interesting and keep you guessing. There's mystery, drama, romance, action, and paranormal activity. What's not to like? I was blown away. You get entangled into the story and the world Shannon K Butcher has created. The author is actually the wife of another great writer, Jim Butcher (author of the Dresden Files series)! What a great team! Very addicting series. Definitely a MUST read and highly recommended! |
