Book Description

October 8, 2012 An Other Novel (Book 3)

My pulse races until my heartbeats become uncountable. I black out, my thoughts erased by a blissful agony, a euphoria of pain. I scream—and it’s the howl of a fox.

Tavian Kimura has never forgotten his kitsune mother, a shape-shifting Japanese fox spirit who abandoned him as a baby. While visiting his adoptive grandparents in Japan, Tavian learns his mother is still alive and that a faceless ghost is haunting him at every turn. The ghost’s warning is clear: Leave now. It is almost too late.

After a pack of vicious dog spirits attacks him, Tavian discovers that his paranormal fox powers are failing, killing him at an accelerating pace. Desperate to find a cure, he must track down his kitsune mother in Tokyo’s dangerous underworld. She is Tavian’s last chance to survive not only the fatal illness, but also the dog spirits who hunt him relentlessly.

“A standout blend of paranormal thriller and sweet teen romance.”—Booklist

“Other has it all; love, shifters, pookas, and nail-biting action.”—Carrie Jones, New York Times bestselling author of Need and Captivate

5.0 out of 5 stars Foxes do have all the fun October 1, 2012
By Wist
Format:Kindle Edition
When Tavian heads to Japan to spend New Year's with his grandparents, he discovers that his mother who abandoned him as a child is very much alive, and his hate for her hits its boiling point. When his powers threaten to kill him because of his human half, he has to move quickly to track down his parents so he can cure himself. Tavian finds himself mixed up in a whole lot of problems; faceless ghosts stalking him, mysteries, his own shapeshifting ailments and the pack of shapeshifting dogs who intend to take a bite out of him while they pursue his mother. But no one can prepare him for just where his father fits into it all.

This was overall a fun, emotional read with delightful characters and action throughout. I wanted to see more of the foxfire magic, but with Tavian `broken' a lot of the time, watching his girlfriend kick butt where necessary was equally entertaining. Although I have not read the previous two books to this series, I was very comfortable in this fantasy world rich with Japanese mythology and culture. The only loss I felt for not reading the previous two books was more time to see Tavian's and Gwen's relationship develop cause they are so cute together!

Foxes do have all the fun, and Foxfire will make you believe just that. I look forward to reading the next book (and backtracking through the previous two to see everything I missed)!

5.0 out of 5 stars Stand Alone in a Trilogy April 27, 2013
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Even though this book is the third of a series, it is completely stand alone and I believe the best in the Other trilogy. The story of Tavian is heart breaking but told is such a vivid, concise way. You want him succeed in his mission to find himself and restore his magic but it is not certain that he will. The many trips to various districts of Tokyo is amazing. The world Kincy creates is enhanced by the delicious smells of Japanese street food and the dangerous underworld of gangs and Others. This story is a wonderful, touching, exciting ride through the streets of Japan. It is a great read!
