"I have always enjoyed this series and Honeymoon of the Dead was no exception"
Occult bookseller Garnet Lacey, is finally married to
vampire, Sebastian Von Traum and it is time for the
honeymoon. Sitting on a plane ready to take off for Vienna,
Garnet, a goddess filled witch, notices something isn't
quite right. It seems they have a bit of a frost demon
problem. Needless to say Garnet decides they are better off
getting off the plane. So the newlyweds are stuck in Minneapolis. It isn't exactly
what they had planned but they decide to make the most of
it. After all it is where Garnet grew up and she is happy
to see and share her old stomping grounds with her new
husband. However, as it usually is, Garnet finds herself in
trouble again. Hopefully her new marriage will be able to
stand the tension. I have always enjoyed this series and Honeymoon of the
Dead was no exception. Unfortunately this fifth
installment is also the last book in the series. I was very
upset to hear this and actually felt sad while reading
this. Garnet is one of those characters that you love from
the beginning and it is a shame that she won't be around to
read about any more. It was strange reading this and knowing it would be the
end. Certainly the finish didn't leave any cliffhangers but
there are a few things I still would have liked to have
heard more about. The ending was left open enough for more
stories about Garnet but I doubt that will ever happen,
such a shame. Anyway I have enjoyed this series and would recommend it to
anyone who likes a good witch! Garnet always manages to
find trouble and I hope she enjoys the rest of her life
with her vampire, Sebastian. I also hope that the author
will be bringing us more paranormal treats soon. Tate
Hallaway has a wonderful writing style, and hopefully
something else is already in the works!
