Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. Yeah, that settles it, I am never going on a cruise. Fantastic. Surprising. I accidentally bought this twice .. once on the kindle and then on amazon because I was so excited about this novel. The "shift" in the titles is completely appropriate for this series. There aren't many authors that can make a series "new" each time and yet also bring back the familiar characters that we come to love, but Cassie does this superbly. I definitely wanted the next novel now. Actions have consequences and there is no happily ever after any time soon. I read this book a long time ago but I only got about half way. As part of my goal to tackle my to be read pile I grabbed this book and started from the beginning again. It was then that I remembered why I like this series...Edie and Asher. They make such a good couple. Edie is so easy going. Asher may be a shapeshifter and he may have a human for a girlfriend but he treats her like royalty. With each book their love has grown more powerful. It is really evident in this book. Thus the reason that the ending was a sad one. I now have to pick up a copy of the next book to see what happens to Edie and Asher. Oh and by the way, the events in this book were full of action and flowed so well that I was able to just keep reading. I might just have to avoid booking a cruise trip anytime soon. This is one of the few series, my dear readers, where each consecutive book is much stronger than the previous one. Kate Daniels by Ilona Andrews is another series that comes to mind. Cassie Alexander likes shaking things up. Her heroine not only goes from bad to worse, she also changes locations and her situation just when we start feeling comfortable about it. And damn, for a change, this is sooo good! Deadshifted is one of the best urban fantasies I've read in a while. The whole thing happens on a cruise ship, for God's sake! How fantastic is that? Archer, Edie's shapeshifter boyfriend surprises her with a romantic cruise to Hawaii, and for once Edie is looking forward to some relaxation time with her steady and suave man candy. However, everything goes to shit pretty quickly when first Archer recognises a villain he dealt with in his previous "incarnation" as one of the guests on the cruise and then kids begin falling ill and die one after another, and the whole cruise ship becomes one eery, dangerous quarantine zone. With Archer trying to find out what's going on under his guise as a doctor, Edie is left to her own devices with passengers throwing themselves overboard, attacking each other for food or spilling their guts in hot tubs all around her. Even Edie who is used to all sort of disgusting, horrible things from her job as a nurse is taken aback and is really very afraid. The death toll goes higher and higher, there is no sign of Archer, and along with a crippled old couple and an orphaned little girl she has to find a way to survive and get off the goddamn cruise ship. Gripping, suspenseful, scary and with an unbelievable twist in the end, this is a glorious read! Highly recommended, and I honestly cannot wait to see what comes next. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
