Commentary In Favor Of Books Darkling (Otherworld/Sisters of the Moon #3)
We're the D'Artigo Sisters: Half-human, half-Faerie, we're savvy--and sexy--operatives for the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. But our mixed-blood heritage short-circuits our talents at all the wrong times. My sister Camille is a wicked-good witch whose magic is as unpredictable as the weather. My sister Delilah transforms into a tabby cat when she's under stress. And me? I'm Menolly, acrobat-extraordinaire-turned-vampire. And I'd give my right fang to make my sire pay for killing me. That is, if he doesn't find me first..."All over Seattle, humans have been going missing, only to turn up as newborn vampires--the sure sign of a rogue vamp on the loose. It looks like Dredge is to blame. The same sadistic Dredge who gave me my scars, and who may well be in cahoots with the demon Shadow Wing. If so, Otherworld and Earth are screwed. The only way we can hope to defeat Dredge is for me to travel home to Otherworld, where I must face my own demons. Because unless I sever the ties that bind me to Dredge, all hell is going to break loose..."

After Changeling I honestly didn't expect to like Darkling as much as I did. Some inconsistencies/spelling/grammar issues aside, this was an enjoyable story with almost no romance to speak of.Darkling is definitely not a paranormal romance. For those interested, there are two sexual scenes in the book and they are used to either move the things forward or to encourage a change in a character. The third D'Artigo sister doesn't fall in love. The whole story is centred on her sadistic sire Dredge'sThis book focuses on the third sister - the vampire Menolly. Her sire Dredge who captured her, tortured her, turned her and then commanded her to attack her own family has crossed over from OW and is now making new vampires in Seattle. Menolly and her sisters have to stop the baby vamps, defeat Dredge, visit OW to meet Jareth a seer, and save a friend who is captured.These books are not HEA romances. The first sister Camille is sleeping with 2 guys (Trillian and Morio) sometimes together now.
I actually really enjoyed Yasmine Galenorn's series. Fun, sexy, and not taking itself too seriously. It has enough paranormal to fit the genre,the plot follows some logic and each of the sisters gets their day in the sun with each book. Galenorn appreciates the pagan/paranormal viewpoint and provides an entertaining, sexy and entertainin read.
Darkling / 978-0-425-21893-8The third in the Sisters of the Moon series, "Darkling" carries on the point-of-view cycle by moving to the third sister in the family - the ill-fated Menolly. Half-human and half-Fae like her sisters, her particular cross to bear is her hated vampirism. In the second book of the series, "Changeling", we learned that the sisters' old enemies were joining forces with the vampire group that tortured and turned Menolly, and "Darkling" follows that plot thread as a chance

4.5 stars - great! I first read this book August 29-30, 2013.I reread it January 22, 2017.The below review is adapted/updated from the review I wrote after my first reading.I loved this book. This one was told from Menolly's point of view, and it was really nice to gain more insight into the youngest D'Artigo sister (though she still seems more like the middle sister). Not only that, but we learned exactly how she became a vampire and got to be witness to the (view spoiler)[breaking of the
Round up to 4.5 stars.
