The monsters teemed the lands-all who tried to fight failed. Until a small band of terrified people united to battle back the darkness…and thus, the saga begins.
Every hero has a past.
Every legend has a beginning.
2 Stars short story that could have been so much more
This short story could have been so much more, it is more like an introduction than a novel. The authoress is talented, but this work felt rushed and incomplete. I am hoping her other stories are more develpoed and told.
3 Stars not quite fleshed out enough
I liked the premise of the story very much, and was disappointed to see its execution somewhat lacking. The story feels rushed and quite short. The dialogue also felt somewhat stilted. I felt left wanting, even with the sex scenes.
5 Stars Beginning of the Hunters Series
Rachel will die soon. It’s only a matter of time before she and her village will be destroyed by the monsters outside her door. Without any help or guidance, they will be hunted, raped and slaughtered by either the pale creatures or the were-shifters. The only person they could count on was Rachel’s husband, Matthew, but he’s been missing for months. Or is he?
Matthew has returned a changed man. He doesn’t know how he will be received by his wife or his village, but he knows that he must tell them why he left and let them believe him dead. Only then can he help them fight the creatures. When he asks for volunteers, only his wife is brave enough to take the risk.
The Huntress is the beginning story of Rachel, the first Huntress and her husband Matthew. Her faith that her husband was alive was humbling because how many women would continue to believe when people were dying left and right? My admiration only grew once Rachel volunteered to help her husband fight the monsters. She didn’t know what would happen, but it didn’t matter because she had Matthew. He could have left her behind, but Matthew chose to come back even though he did not know how Rachel would receive him. They are a dynamic couple but Rachel’s first dealing with evil was chilling. I could see why she is the Huntress. The Huntress is a great addition to the Hunter series and my keeper shelf. Kudos to Ms. Walker for continually raising the bar on an awesome series.
