Jennifer Jenkins (1)

Jennifer Jenkins is a talented author. I love her writing style and found the book, Clanless, quite entertaining. Background: Zo is a healer, who gained entrance inside the enemy camp to mete out some espionage as a personal payback. Despite the horrors she suffers and witnesses, she still falls in love with the handsome and valiant Gryphon who has his dad's reputation to try to eradicate. I liked Gryphon, he kind of reminded me of John Snow from Game of Thrones (at least that was the face I put on the character). He's a leader who wants to do the right thing and be a good man in the worst of times.

I would've loved to have seen more romance in the romance between Zo and John Snow...I mean, Gryphon. Just my two cents, but what do I know. I know nothing.… (plus d'informations)

I was fortunate enough to also be sent Nameless, the first book of the series, and I was glad for it - Clanless picks up right where Nameless left off and doesn't have as much recap as I'd have liked.
On its own though, Clanless is definitely aimed for teen/young adult readers. It's very well-paced with scene changes that keep you reading for hours but there are times where the main characters worry more about their relationship and whether the other is alive than how they're going to escape from pursuers.
In comparison to Nameless the writing is pretty consistent but the story starts to settle as YA. I'd have liked it to continue as more borderline adult material. Fortunately it's not the last book in the series so I plan on keeping an eye out for the next installment.… (plus d'informations)
