In the 2nd book, Brock Anderson invoked strong emotional reaction reaction from me. Damn good writing.

it's difficult to not give out much of the book (I tried at least), but yes, Brock is a wonderful, and heroic, character

I had found out only late about the existence of ''Out of the Ashes''. And then I've forgotten about it, probably also because I read diverging opinions about the sequel to that wonderful book which is ''A Strong and Sudden Thaw''.

Thank you for reminding everybody that such sequel exists. Just a little concrit: I would have appreciated a warning about spoilers at the beginning of your review. Then I would have had the option to wait before reading it.

For the rest, I really don't know what to do. Even people who find the book relatively good say they won't re-read it.

Well, I didn't say how and if the relationship between David and Sterling will end ;-) maybe they will find a threesome sort of way... or maybe not... It was important to say that David had someone else since, well, that is most of the book, I think more than 3/4 of the book David and Callan are separated.

I agree with you as I loved the book to bits. Who say that we can only love once? With this time-line and with all the hardship our two men goes through, I think it was kind of a solace that there was love along the way. Not every book can be a romantic dream where everything is perfect and love is strong and singular. With all the menage books out there I think the readers should be able to accept that.

I'm playing the advocate devil here, since me first was able to like since, in my mind, I convinced myself that there was still hope for David and Callan

Being an eternal optimist, I never gave up on them. Now I just want more I think. XD

I loved this book. "Dark romance" is a perfect description. Although I thought it was every bit as outstanding as Thaw, I can understand how it might not be for all readers. But then again, what book is? =)

[elisa_rolle]

No one book is perfect for everyone (I hope I wrote it down rightly :-) )

oh, wow
now i have to read A Strong and Sudden Thaw asap ._.
thanks

[elisa_rolle]

meaning that you want to read the first before the sequel? that is probably a good idea ;-)
