5/20/2023 0 Comments Reaper's Property by Joanna Wylde![]() ![]() ![]() I think this is down to your natural talent, a bit more experience and being blessed by the editing gods. ![]() I found the latest book to be more tightly written, with the (to my mind) best elements of your writing and your “voice” preserved. I do think Reaper’s Legacy stands alone well and it is not necessary to have read Reaper’s Property to understand it. (I read Motorcycle Man by Kristen Ashley sometime after Reaper’s Property and that really sealed the deal.) Reaper’s Legacy has therefore been a much anticipated book and I was very happy to read an advance copy of it. And, while in real life I don’t find bikies terribly heroic or attractive or admirable, in some kinds of romance fiction, in this “fantasy” setting, I found them vastly entertaining. In the end, I felt it was a kind of “urban fantasy romance” or fantasy to the “hyper-extreme” – so far removed from my reality that it may as well have had magic and werewolves and vampires in it. I say somewhat to my surprise, because I wasn’t sure I could buy into the “hero” of a romance novel being a) in a Motorcycle Gang Club and b) being a criminal and c) whether the apparent misogyny would be too much for me. I read Reaper’s Property (reviewed here by Jane) last year and, somewhat to my surprise, I liked it very much. ![]()
