Overall this is a good book. It explains how Cherie's twins grow up in the human and elf worlds and how they meet up with each other when they are about 16. I liked how the elf/human relations were elaborated on but was disappointed in the ending; the book abruptly ended about two chapters after they had finally gotten to meet each other. It is almost as if the author was in the middle of a thought and then put "The End."

I always loved this book and all the author's other stories. I wish she had written more books. Her characters are approachable and yet approriatley foreign. The land is just obscure enough to not be ours but yet relatable enough to makeit viable. I love her humor and her characterization.

This book is reflected from two different view points- that of Ria, and that of her brother. Ria, a half elf, is raised amongst humans, and her brother raised amognst elves. Ria, promised to marry a boy who's like a brother to her, longs for the understanding of someone, while her brother wishes that all the elves that stand against him would not. Will Ria and her brother learn to live with the race that cares for each, or will the plans of agroup of people run awry, and the two races go sofar as to kill each other as they did before Ria?

Wild Blood, by Anne Logston is a captivating story that's so good that once you pick it up, you get lost in it, finding it hard to get back out and to put it down. If you have anything important to do don't start reading it or you might never accomplish what you have to do. The characters in this story seem like real people, because they're not too perfect. Often when you read stories the characters are unbelievable, and are often too perfect to be possible. but the characters Ria, and her twin brother are so realistic that its hard to imagine that they don't really exsist.

This is an extroidanrly (sp?) good book. It has an origenal (Goddess, my spelling needs some work!) plot and great people/elves in the book. Left me yearning for more. Enjoy, all ye goode book folk!
