Iron Kissed

So I put down F. Paul Wilson's THE TOMB again to read the next installment in Patricia Briggs' Mercedes Thompson series. IRON KISSED looks at the world of the fae in Mercy's world. I really enjoyed this book, particulary the conclusion of the Mercy-Adam-Samuel triangle. Ms. Briggs ended this perfectly - especially avoiding the cliches she could have easily used. All in all, I like these books and will read the next one when it comes out. But I imagine my complaints with the covers (This time with Mercy in a midriff-baring mechanic's shirt with a tattoo (commonly called a tramp stamp) revealed above her hindquarters.) will continue as well. It's almost funny because there is only the mention of the single tattoo for our heroine as well as her own statements that she is not that good looking. Maybe I find it funny that the covers are so PG-13 and the content of the book goes no farther than PG - at least in terms of romance.

Now back to THE TOMB.
