Bloodring by Faith Hunter
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
There's a lot of potential in this book but there isn't enough actual to keep me going. I mean, the whole angels and UF feel with magical crystals and mystical overwhelming sex energies that tie into the magic system IS fairly interesting, at least on paper.
It's also a fairly average post-apocalypse tale set in the deep cold.
I don't know. I never really connected with the main character and only mildly cared about where the story was going. A potential world-building is only as good as the characters who live in it, and the Mage-Heat stuff was... weird. Not good weird. Just... weird.
Maybe this could have been the next hottest thing but it's been years and it just isn't.
I had a lot more fun reading her Jane Yellowrock UF.
