Publisher Description
For every fan of the Otherworld who is longing for more, an exciting, suspenseful and sexy new collection of stories and novellas, both original and curated by Kelley Armstrong from her short fiction.
Globe and Mail and New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong captivated audiences with her 13-novel Women of the Otherworld series of supernatural thrillers. Though the series is over, her characters live on, not only with her fans but for Kelley too. In this new collection, she brings together some of her favourite love matches, taking us on honeymoon with her werewolves, Elena and Clay; showing us how her vampires, Cassandra and Aaron, express their unique bond; revealing how Karl proposed to Hope; and how the young Australian werewolf, Reese, learned the dangers of love, among other stories. And by popular demand, included here is the fan-favourite novella, Hidden.
As an exciting conclusion, Armstrong has written a brand-new novella that takes us beyond the end of Thirteen to show us what happens after Savannah and Adam save the Otherworld—and realize they really do love each other. Lots of excitement as usual, but can these two find happiness?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Armstrong revisits her Otherworld series with the first of three planned anthologies. This collection of six short stories and two novellas one brand-new focuses on love and family, preternatural intrigue and politics, and zigging where zags are expected. The three best entries involve werewolves. "Chivalrous" may be short, but its story of forbidden college romance between two werewolves packs a major wallop. In the novella "Hidden," Elena and Clay's attempt to provide their four-year-old twins with an old-fashioned Christmas is interrupted by the investigation of a young man's death. Telling the twins about werewolves becomes more pressing for future Pack Alpha Elena when one of them exhibits supernatural abilities. The brief "From Russia, with Love" features a visit from Pack Alpha Jeremy. His plan to relinquish authority to Elena is delightful, and the twins are so precocious it's a shame the series ended before they grew up. The unfortunately titled "Twilight" is a less interesting examination of vampires, but lycanthrophiles will be very pleased.
