Narrative To Books A Lick of Frost (Merry Gentry #6)
I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for Meredith to get pregnant already and for there to be some forward movement of plot in these books. Also, I was getting tired of the strung together scenes of sex...new magic...more sex...some more new magic.This book really toned down on the sex, thank goodness. And, to be fair, the plot did inch forward infinitesimally. But this book was quite boring. It was a bunch of mirror conversations. First Merry talks to Taranis is the mirror for eleventy-billion pages. Then she talks to Andais for eleventy-more-billion pages. The she talks to the goblins. And then we hear about some more new creatures her sex has brought to life.
In the course of these conversations we get more of Bat Shit Crazy Andais, something of Skeevy Perv Crazy Taranis and of course there is Just Psycho Crazy Cel lurking off in the background. Talk about tedious characters. If Merry is so dang powerful why doesn't she off some of these people already. I do agree with Andais, Merry has turned into a wimp.
I remember the first book when she got her hand of power and used it. Actually, I remember the first book and so much happened just in that one book. Le Sigh.

Library book borrowed I'm going to give this one an extra star because it was such a quick read. (Because it was a shorter book; NOT because it was so enjoyable that I couldn't put it down.) LolIt wasn't that bad. Usual Merry the sex fairy and LKH writing.Spoiler Warning......Merry is finally PREGNANT!!!!NOW starts the intro to the Jerry Springer Fae Show: today we'll reveal who the father of your baby is! First, Merry...you're pregnant with not just one baby .... BUT 2 babies!!!!And each baby
For me this series gets better with each book. I am always expecting the new love twist, the new magic, some new development. But this one, broke my heart....I tend to get sucked into the books that I read that I truly love and enjoy.. I feel the emotions and develop my relationships with the characters.Through out this series I have chosen my favorites...Doyle, Rhys, Frost, Galen and Kitto. I care a lot for the others, but these five are my favorites.So much happens in this book, so many
I have followed the Princess Meredith series for awhile, but realized that I had missed a couple of installments. Frost is the princess's number two guard, after Darkness. Meredith struggles with her feelings of favoritism among her guards, but she is very honest about it. In A Lick of Frost she is once again in a fight for her life. She has repeatedly been targeted as a key member of Faerie society -by both factions, the Seelie and the Unseelie. She is also half mortal and this does not bode

I am not exactly sure why I keep reading this series--besides of the sex I mean. Pure stubbornness, most likely. I just want to see what happens next. The storyline is pretty far fetched, but I still buy into it more than into the magic described in Stolen (see my previous review). Also my imagination gets a great workout, trying to picture the outlandish looks of all of Merry's bed companions.
The Good: Taranis has been discussed at length many times in the previous books, but we finally get to see him as a major character in A Lick of Frost. Everything mentioned before pales in comparison to the reality of what Taranis is capable of. Things get dark and gritty quickly and Hamilton is the queen of dark and gritty. Some very powerful, emotional, devastating stuff goes on here with Taranis and beyond. Merry experiences bitter joy and deep loss, all in the confines of needed plot
