Hunting in Bruges
E.J. Stevens
Urban Fantasy
The only thing worse than being a Hunter in the fae-ridden city of Harborsmouth, is hunting vampires in Bruges.
Being shipped off to Belgium sucks. The medieval city of Bruges is quaint, but the local Hunters’ Guild is understaffed, the canals are choked with dead bodies, and there’s no shortage of supernatural predators as likely suspects.
On second thought, maybe Bruges isn’t so bad after all.
With a desire to prove herself, protect the innocent, and advance within the ranks of the Hunters’ Guild, Jenna Lehane hits the cobbled streets of Bruges with blades at the ready. Someone, or something, is murdering tourists and dumping their bodies in the city’s scenic canals. With the help of a mysterious stranger, Jenna begins to piece together clues that are dotted throughout the city like blood spatter.
Determined to stop the killings, Jenna delves into a bloody local history that only raises more questions–but some secrets are best left buried. Jenna must put her combat training to the test as she struggles to unearth the truth about an ancient enemy.
Uncaged Review: Right in my comfort zone, this spin-off of the Ivy Granger series really hit a sweet spot for me. Jenna from the Hunter’s Guild is sent to Bruges, to find out and stop some supernatural killings, and what she runs into is far worse than any of them imagined. Full of great action and memorable characters, we have a strong heroine in Jenna, and my favorite character in a long time has to be Ash, but I’ll let you discover this eccentric character all on your own.
Great action sequences, and a well thought out plot, keeps you turning the pages on this urban fantasy. I’m looking forward to the next one in the series, and now I need to go back and dig into the Ivy Granger series. Reviewed by Cyrene
