About this product

Product Information

I am Meredith Gentry, princess and heir apparent to the throne in the realm of faerie, onetime private investigator in the mortal world. To be crowned queen, I must first continue the royal bloodline and give birth to an heir of my own. If I fail, my aunt, Queen Andais, will be free to do what she most desires: install her twisted son, Cel, as monarch . . . and kill me. My royal guards surround me, and my best loved-my Darkness and my Killing Frost-are always beside me, sworn to protect and make love to me. But still the threat grows greater. For despite all my carnal efforts, I remain childless, while the machinations of my sinister, sadistic Queen and her confederates remain tireless. So my bodyguards and I have slipped back into Los Angeles, hoping to outrun the gathering shadows of court intrigue. But even exile isn't enough to escape the grasp of those with dark designs. Now King Taranis, powerful and vainglorious ruler of faerie's Seelie Court, has leveled accusations against my noble guards of a heinous crime-and has gone so far as to ask the mortal authorities to prosecute. If he succeeds, my men face extradition to faerie and the hideous penalties that await them there. But I know that Taranis's charges are baseless, and I sense that his true target is me. He tried to kill me when I was a child. Now I fear his intentions are far more terrifying.

The best Merry Gentry book yet!
As a fan of Laurell K. Hamilton, I snatched this book up as soon as it hit the shelves. Hamilton has 2 different series... the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series... and the Merry Gentry series. "A Lick of Frost" is the latest book in the Merry Gentry series. There are SO MANY characters in this series. I would highly recommend that you read the other books in this series before trying to tackle this one. It has a rather simple plot, with many complex sub-plots. The reason I think it's so complicated is because of all the different characters. As I stated above, I feel like this is the best book in the series... so far. I'll try not to give away too much information. It picks up not long after the end of the previous book. Merry and her Guards are back in L.A. They have been summoned to a meeting at the Police station because of some rape and battery charges against a few of the Guards. They go up against King Taranis again and things go horribly wrong when they realize that the King is starting to go insane. Fast forward to the ending... I found it to be rather melancholy. There is extremely exciting news at the end... along with an extremely sad loss. And of course, the extreme growth of power that seems to follow Merry wherever she goes. There is so much happiness mixed in with so much sadness that it leaves you sitting there going, "Wow..." I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of supernatural fiction. If you're a fan of the Anita Blake books... then jump on the wagon for this series too! They're the same beloved author! Just remember what I mentioned... you should definitely start at the beginning to discover all the other wonders of the Faerie world where Merry is from.Read full review

Fans of this author will not be disappointed!
If you are an avid reader of Laurell K Hamilton's books, you will not be disappointed with this one. After the background details of the first couple of chapters, the book swings into high gear and you are once again wrapped up in the world of faerie. Plan on reading well into the night, because you won't be able to put it down. Talk about romance and intrigue! We all have our favorite characters in this series, and we get to know them just a little better in this latest installment. There's a welcome surprise at the end too.

A Lick of Frost
While this series has gotten a tad repetitive with its graphic sexual nature, there still lies within a good story, and this one of the series was no different. However, with Princess Meredith finally gaining what she was after it leaves one to wonder if or where Ms. Hamilton will take the series. Hopefully, she just won't end it with this one as it would be a very sad way to end such a great story line. In order to understand, it's best to read the entire series from first to this one or you'll be forever confused by all the characters she uses so well. I enjoyed it, just thought it was a little too short, as was most of the Princess Meredith's series by Ms. Hamilton.

Another Attention Grabber
I purchased this book because I have read all the other books in the series. LKH does another excellent job of grabbing your attention & holding onto it! I loved the book. A dislike was taking away one of my favorite gaurds, but I have hopes that he'll return. The intimate sense in the book aren't quite what they were in the others, but they still leave you dreaming. I got the book Friday morning & was done with it by Sunday night. You just can't put this book down. And the wonderful excitement of long awaited news was a wonderful added bonus! You must read this book!!!
