A Touch of Frost – A Quick Review

[  Mood: Happy ]

The Merry Gentry series is the second of Laurel K. Hamilton’s juggernaut series. Merry is supposed to be a private investigator in Los Angeles, but really the books are supernatural erotica. They are also chronicles of the politics of the Fairie Courts, cause Merry is a Fairie princess.

Book 6, A Lick of Frost, is shorter than previous entries and also lacks the out and out sex. It is heavy on the politics though.

The book opens with three of Merry’s guards accused of rape by the King of the Seelie court. Merry has to defend them and figure out why the King is lying. (Cause fairies, or Seelies, as they are called, can’t lie.)

A better entry than I expected. The lack of sex did not detract from the story. In fact, it may have made it better. And given what happens at the end, this may be a new trend for Hamilton and the series.

Not bad.
