#38 Dragon Ship by Sharon Lee & Steve Miller

This is not a good book to jump into this series since there is so much back story with Theo and the entire Korval clan. That being said this is a great universe and I really enjoyed reading it and can't wait for the next book. The story shows Theo developing into a captain of her own ship and having to deal with a universe that doesn't seem to care that she is flying Tree and Dragon colors.  Find a good jumping into spot and there are several and dig in. Or you can try with this book but so many of the nice surprises will get spoiled.

#39 Frost Burned by Patricia Briggs

This book follows after both the events in River Marked and Fair Game. Mercy quickly finds herself unable to reach Adam or the rest of the pack. Since she can't reach any werewolf, she calls every other person she knows to get help and keep the human members of the pack safe. This is great that you get everyone that you haven't seen in the last several books back into the story line and catch up with them. A good reminder to the reader that there are vampires in this universe setting even if they don't come out to play that often. A very enjoyable read and now to wait a year for the next book.
