Book Reviews of Slave (The Cat Star Chronicles)
Book Review: First one out of the gate....
Summary: 1 Stars
...but ended dead last. I agree whole-heartedly with Demi and Emily: great premise, really really strong potential but about two-thirds in the author completely lost me. It was almost painful to finish the book. The editing was terrible, the sex scenes boring, and in terms of character development there was none. It was extremely superficial, somewhat juvenile, and really all over the map. Additionally, there was no character development for Cat, other than learning Earth-slang (which by the way felt forced when it came to even the main character).
The one shining point in this virgin novel is the environment the author created. The development of the other species, with the possible exception of the Nedwuts, shows excellent promise and she did a great job in their introduction. Now if only she could have done that with her main characters!
Ultimately, I ended up giving this book one star because I was extremely disappointed by the lack of depth and total deflation of the plotline. It would have been a lot better if the author hadn't rushed the story but simply allowed to it grow on its own.
Summary of Slave (The Cat Star Chronicles)
"Hot, dangerous, and sexy."--Candace Havens, author of Charmed & Deadly
"I found him in the slave market on Orpheseus Prime, and even on such a god-forsaken planet as that one, their treatment of him seemed extreme."
He may be the last of a species whose sexual talents were the envy of the galaxy.
Cat is an enslaved warrior from a race with a feline gene that gives him awesome beauty, fearsome strength, and sensuality and sexual prowess unmatched by any other males in the universe. Even filthy, chained, and beaten, he gives off an aura of power and virility and his feline gene gives him a special aura.
Jacinth is an intergalactic trader on a rescue mission and she needs a man she can trust with her life.
She has spent years pursuing her kidnapped sister from planet to planet. Now her quest leads her to a place where all the women are slaves. "Jack" needs a slave of her own-one who can masquerade as her master.
Enmeshed in a tangle of deception, lust, and love, they must elude a race of violent killers and together forge a bond stronger than any chains.
"A sexy adventure with a hero you can't resist!"
