If easy-to-read, action-packed, paranormal romance is your cup of tea, then Dark of the Moon, the final installment in Rachel Hawthorne’s Dark Guardian’s trilogy, will be a tasty treat.
Picking up where Full Moon left off, Dark of the Moon is told from the point-of-view of Brittany, a tough gal who has been training to be a Dark Guardian her entire life. Unfortunately for Brittany, no one has claimed her as his own, and she will have to go through the excruciating transformation from girl to wolf alone. Even more tragically, when Brittany sets off on her own to face the moon, nothing happens. She is not a wolf, and she will never be a Dark Guardian. Of course, as her luck would have it, Connor (the love of her life and object of her obsession for years) is finally starting to notice her. But how can he love a girl who can’t shift?
When both Brittany and Connor are captured by Bio-Chrome at the hand of the power-hungry genius, Mason, there will be no more secrets between Brittany and Connor and also between the shifter and Bio-Chrome.
I love the Dark Guardians series because it is quickly and easily read, and it is jam-packed with action. In fact, Dark of the Moon, in my opinion is the most excited book in the trilogy because it ties up all the loose ends in the series. Readers will know what has become of Connor after Lindsay chooses Rafe. Also, Hawthorne finally reveals the reasons Brittany never quite fits in with the rest of the Dark Guardians and why no man has ever claimed her. But most importantly, the readers experience the closure they need with the Bio-Chrome issue so that they are not longing for another book. Actually, when I heard Hawthorne was only going to write three books in this series, I was disappointed, but she did a great job of answering all the lingering questions and bringing all the characters to realization.
These Dark Guardians books are not profoundly clever or written with particular ingenuity, but they are fun, enjoyable, and an absolute pleasure to read–which is actually quite ingenious, after all.

I just stumbled upon a cool interactive Poe site that I thought you would be interested in for school or your own purposes…even though I’m pretty sure you know all there is to know about Poe.

So are you posting the rest of The Seers online or is that just a teaser?
Yeah, I love that site. Unfortunately, it’s blocked at school. Can you believe that? I shake my head at the state department sometimes, but what can you do. And I might post my story online. I did post the first couple of chapters but took it down after a couple of days. Just haven’t decided what to do with it yet, but you may see more of it in the future. The revision was much better than what you read.
