My Guardian

I didn't know how I would feel about this book before I started it. My wariness was based on this new setting: Noctem Falls, the Pillar City of Night. Its population predominantly consists of vampires, plus it's underground. I thought I would feel uncomfortable with this foreign place, along with new characters I have no idea what to expect from.
However, I should know by now that Alanea Alder will always please many other readers and myself with this series. Meryn is still up to her antics, making new friends with hilarious characters, and kicking jerkwads' butts. Actually, I feel like this book had a big dose of Meryn, but that could just be my personal opinion. Maybe it's just that I focused on her the most because of her vibrant personality. There's nothing to fear; the other characters that are there are still mentioned aplenty.
The only things I didn't like, or missed, about this book are the presence of the rest of Lycaonia's unit warriors and their mates, as well as how short this book was for me. I NEED MORE. Oh, there was also this little misunderstanding throughout the book that kind of annoyed me but it was resolved in the end in a satisfying manner. Again, thank you Alanea Alder.
