Rating: 4.5 Roses The Cloak of Night and Daggers, by Rosemary Edghill

I love a man who can speak forsoothly. Edghill's characters are witty, smart, and stay in parlance. The action continues at the same breakneck pace as the second book, and a lot of the romantic conflict reaches fever-pitch and/or resolution. Read the full review by Becky Parkhurst.
Rating: 4.0 Roses The Cup of Morning Shadows, by Rosemary Edghill
Elfland, as they say, is always duller than Poughkeepsie. Not this place. Rosemary Edghill keeps the cynical edge that made the previous book in this series successful. Read the full review by Becky Parkhurst.
Rating: 3.5 Roses The Golden Key, by Melanie Rawn, Jennifer Roberson, and Kate Elliott
The Golden Key is an intriguing story about a magical but corrupt painter who seeks power through his art. Read the full review by Sara Lipowitz.
Rating: 3.5 Roses King's Dragon, by Kate Elliott
Despite some captivating plotlines and imaginative situations, the author hasn't lavished enough time or care on most of her characters to make the reader care about them. It's still a worthwhile read, and most of the problems with the book can be blamed on the fact that this is the author's first fantasy story. Read the full review by Catherine George.
Rating: 4.0 Roses Prince of Dogs, by Kate Elliot
Prince of Dogs is much better than the first book in the series, King's Dragon. I took my time reading the first novel, but I chose to stay up one night to read this one all at once. Unfortunately, it still has some of the same problems that the first novel did. Read the full review by Catherine George.
Rating: 5.0 Roses Speak Daggers to Her, by Rosemary Edghill
Edghill takes us inside the New York neopagan scene, peopled with characters both ordinary and wildly eccentric in a realistically paced mystery with a gritty attention to detail. Read the full review by Becky Parkhurst.
Rating: 5.0 Roses The Sword of Maiden's Tears, by Rosemary Edghill
Throughout this book, Edghill retains her grasp over her characters and settings. We view her people and places through a tight focus that lends a depth of realism to a story which might otherwise be mistaken for light fantasy. Light this book is not. Read the full review by Rebecca Parkhurst.
