#30 One Good Knight by Mercedes Lackey

This is the second Five Hundred Kingdoms book. Like the first it has the Tradition and Godmothers. This is less a twist on a fairy tale and more a twist on Greek mythology. Not bad and I have to admit it was a bit refreshing instead of rehashing all the same old tales. I have to admit there was less romance in this one than in the first Luna book, The Fairy Godmother. Not that I'm looking for the romance but I have to admit I was surprised at the lack of it. Just not sure when the next one will be coming out. Guess I need to go look at the Luna site.

Nope you want to read them like candy. Sorta like getting the vomit flavored jelly bean.

lolol! I think I've missed out on tasting that one. Still, I'll survive somehow! But yes, that's sort of what it was like. Sure left a bad taste in the mouth, anyway. After reading a bit in MTG on the Bar, I've been giving Heyer a try. I liked the first one I read. I might see if I can find some more at the library.
