4.0 out of 5 stars All three stories are reprints, May 20, 2005

This review is from: Romance at the Edge: In Other Worlds (Paperback)

All three of these stories are reprints. They have all been previously published as e-books by Loose-id. They are good stories.

I enjoyed Anglea Knights "Stranded" best. Of course, i'm a big AK fan and enjoy almost all her work.

MaryJanice Davidson's "Beggarman, Thief" was lighthearted fun.

Camille Anthony's "Light on Her Feet" is actually a sequel to "Swept off Her Feet" published by Elloras Cave. I think the story makes a lot more sense if you have read the first book.

While I enjoyed all these stories, I, in fact, own all of them as e-books. I was very disappointed that nowhere was there any warning that these stories have been previously published.

So...if you haven't already read them, and you like your alpha males, you will probably enjoy these stories.

This review is from: Romance at the Edge: In Other Worlds (Paperback)

This is a 3 author anthology with 2 upcoming attractions in the back.

Beggerman, Thief - OK, Mary Janice Davidson is definitely a worth reading author. She blends humor and self-depricating yet take charge heroines with storylines that you usually won't want to put down. But I stand by an earlier critisism that her stories keep getting shorter & shorter. Our leading lady is a feisty blue haired mutant that can go invisable and phaze through solid objects. She uses these talents to supplement her income. But she steals from the wrong guy (although Mr. Right). He's a human, but largely machine for reasons frustratingly unexplained. Ofcourse in 53 pages they hit it off and he saves her from the bad guy in the big fanale. But why exactly is she working for a bad guy? At 53 pages it reeled you in then spit you back out entertained but slightly bereft.

Stranded - Angela Knight is becoming one of The big names if you want a take charge, pull you in fantasy with a side of kinky. In her extreme take on a reality show she gives plenty of Way Out There alpha male. I love her books but I definitely blushed when reading this one.

Light on her Toes - I'd never read Camille Anthony, whose story takes up most of this anthologies space. MY HELPFUL HINT: Flip to the alien vocab terms that follow after the story! (before you read the tale duh!)Without that the terminology is very distracting and hard to figure out what the heck the characters are talking about. It's an alien rendition of the somewhat typical warrior girl battles warrior boy for equal footing in a relationship. It notes a previous story of this author which may be handy to read first.

So, have fun reading - all together it's an entertaining book to pick up!

Summary - Beggarman, Thief by MaryJanice Davidson: He's human - Barely. She's a thief, and rumor has it she's insane. She tries to take something that's his, so he'll take her. For three days. After all, a deal's a deal.

Comment - I really like MaryJanice Davidson's books & I was so happy when Beggarman, Thief became available in print format (I don't like reading e-books). It's a great story & I hated to see it end.


Summary - Stranded by Angela Knight: Hawke, a Dominant soldier, demands repayment for rescuing Alex from certain death at the jaws of a giant saurian. Alex secretly craves domination. Now she has to submit to Hawke...or else.

Comment - I was happily surprised by the Angela Knight story. Her stories are usually hit or miss with me - I either like it or hate it. I enjoyed Stranded a lot.


Summary - Light on Her Toes by Camille Anthony: Dohsan wants D'ari, and D'ari wants Dohsan. One must submit, but neither wants to. It's the age old battle between the sexes, with a heated alien twist. Publisher's Note: For the convenience of our readers, Light on her Toes contains a glossary at the end of the book.

Comment - Light on her Toes was a total miss for me. I couldn't get pass the alien words.
