Book Reviews of Venus Besieged (Richfield & Rivers Mystery Series)

Book Review: Third time, still a charm
Summary: 5 Stars

In this third installment of the VERY enjoyable Richfield and Rivers mystery series, the writing continues to sparkle with wit, nuance, and pace. Teague and Callie continue their dance, with Teague's verbal sparring a compliment to Callie's insistant mysticism.
While I don't understand all the ramifications of the astrological charts, neither does Teague; but through her journey with Callie, she just accepts the babble that Callie professes, secretly greatful that the stars have put Callie into her universe.
And Callie is Teague's gentle reminder that all life isn't a sarcastic bombshell that must be exploded. But, it is fun nonetheless to watch and listen to Teague's own assessment of everything, from watching as Barrett and Ramona (two very great incidental characters that hopefully will be weaved through more installments) "pork each other in the pines", to watching while, in a heat of passion with Caliie, "I caught sight of something blowing over the edge of the mesa, a two-legged kite sailing away...my pants"...that's Teague, all the presence of mind for the pratical.
Throughout the book, the murder mystery is deftly interwoven through a series of interesting and well drawn characters, each shifting in and out of the mystical world of shamans and vortexs, with Elmo, the great straight-man basset hound keeping Teague grounded in her own pragmatic thinking.
I wonder if Andrews and Austin each write one character, or they both collaborate on the composite of Teague and Callie. I opt for the former, because I like to think that this series reflects Andrews and Austin individually, the mystery being which one is Teague, which one is Callie.
Through each book, one comes to be very comfortable in Teague's and Callie's world, rooting for them to get together and stay together. The craft of this book, as well as the series, is excellant and I highly recommend that you invest the time and money into this exciting and fun series.
