I'm A New Fan.
I have fallen in love with Christine Feehan. I've heard her name bandied around as a fabulous paranormal writer. Now, usually, paranormal isn't really my bag, but desperate one day for reading fodder, I picked up "Mind Game". I think a fabulous series is one that has me scrambling to find all the pieces. In other words, I read "Mind Game" and immediately went out and bought "Shadow Game" (Book I) and "Night Game" (Book III). She is BRILLIANT! Not only is this series sexy and romantic, but it's also really cool.
You know how you have authors that you'll go out and buy hardbound books for? Mine has always been Terry Brooks Shannara series, Elizabeth Peters Amelia Peabody Mysteries and Elizabeth Lowell romances. Now, I can Feehan to the list.
In "Shadow Game" we are introduced to "The Ghostwalkers", a group of military men who chose to be "enhanced" genetically but found themselves in physical pain and mortal danger. The man who developed the enhancements is apparently murdered and his daughter Lily steps in to save the men. She, herself, is enhanced. What she finds out about her father leads her to other young women, like herself, that have unbelievable powers. Her father's legacy is danger and guilt as she realizes that the experiments he was doing were deadly and immoral. With the help of one of the Ghostwalkers, Ryland, she delves into her father's secrets and finds passion as well. Now she must find all the other young girls sent out into the world unprepared for the consequences of her father's meddling.
In "Mind Game", Nicco is sent after an enhanced woman who is being used as a government operative. Danger and fear stalk them both but they find each other. The trick is to keep Dahlia from killing Nicco before he can help her.
In "Night Game" (my favorite) Lily sends a Ghostwalker after Flame, one of the enhanced girls. Gator is a cajun wonder and my absolute favorite Ghostwalker. He's sexy and has a smart mouth. The byplay between Flame and Gator was worth reading the book. The love scenes are fabulous and HOT. My absolute favorite ending EVER!!!!! Go and read this one.
