4.0 out of 5 stars
And now I need to read the rest of the series...., February 24, 2007
This review is from: Shadow Hunter (Silhouette Intimate Moments) (Mass Market Paperback)
The Skinwalkers have organized the kidnapping of a baby. Little do they realize that the woman they kidnapped with the baby is not her mother but is actually wealthy heiress, Bailey Howard. Hunter Long's job is to find Bailey and the baby. Not only is he an excellent tracker and a Navajo Tribe Special Investigator, but he is also a member of the Brotherhood and Bailey's former lover. It's a race against time as Hunter tries to rescue both Bailey and baby Tara before the Skinwalkers cause even more damage.
SHADOW HUNTER is the third book in the Night Guardians series. I have a sneaking suspicion that I would have enjoyed this book even more had I read the previous two books, a situation I intend to rectify soon. SHADOW HUNTER is easily understood and enjoyable as a stand alone although it appears to have ongoing involvement from characters, particularly the members of the Brotherhood.
The concept of a group such as the Brotherhood joining together to fight Skinwalkers isn't necessarily a new one, but Linda Conrad puts her own spin on it to keep this theme fresh and entertaining. Stories about the Navajo and the Skinwalkers are always intriguing because of the beauty and harmony represented in the Navajo culture. Linda Conrad does a magnificent job at incorporating the need for harmony into the storyline, particularly into her character development. Some of the aspects of the war between the Skinwalkers and the Brotherhood seemed a bit unclear to me, but this may be a result of jumping into the middle of the series rather than starting at the beginning.
SHADOW HUNTER is a book well worth reading. The romance element is strong as Bailey and Hunter definitely connect. Linda Conrad writes a good, solid romance novel with enough suspense and paranormal aspects to keep fans of multiple genres happy with SHADOW HUNTER.

OKAY..., September 24, 2008
This review is from: Shadow Hunter (Silhouette Intimate Moments) (Mass Market Paperback)
Nice twists with evil shape shifters & spirits. Moved a little slow at times. Sure could have used more action in the plot. Decent read if you picked up book at discount price but certainly not worth full $$.
