Rainbow Book Reviews
I’ve enjoyed my foray into the ‘Helldorado Mongrels MC’ series with all of its paranormal and fantastical aspects. I honestly believe these should be read in order as there is considerable backstory so I’m not going to describe the worldbuilding again. I have been interested in Sloth and discovering what secrets he has so I was eager to hear his story. Sloth definitely has some secrets. Pretty big ones, too, that involve Emma and Gabe Dyson. Unfortunately, revealing the truth of who, and what, Sloth is hiding is a huge spoiler and I don’t think it’s fair to ruin it via my review. I can say that in this world the paranormal shifter witches are known as “maicohs” and when one of them kills a family member, whether by accident or on purpose, they go evil and become skinwalkers. Emma is a maicoh, something she has never even shared with her brother, Gabe, and now Inferno has brought in Shaman, a skinwalker from Albuquerque to hunt and find Emma. Shaman is a big, bad skinwalker, the kind of evil witch who hunts down maicohs and kills them taking their power as his own. How in the world can he be mated to Sloth who is the antithesis of everything Shaman is? I felt for Sloth (and was really happy to discover his real name) as he certainly faces a conundrum between the inevitable mate attraction and his distaste for Shaman’s evil nature. There were some interesting, albeit not exactly believable, twists and turns at the end that allowed Sloth and Shaman to get their happy ever after. The Dysons got their fortune back and everything turned out for the best. Even Inferno got what was coming to him although in a much less bloodthirsty way than I would have chosen. A good addition to the series.
