CE Murphy... good reads all around

I started by reading the Walker papers series...the series involving an "Urban Shaman."  I wasn't completely thrilled with the first book but like many series, it picked up steam as it went along.

After 3 books I was hooked into the story line and geeking out on these books. I love the heroine and that they aren't completely predictable story lines.

Then I read the Heart of Stone series... and while it was good, it was lackluster in comparison to the Walker series. Meh all the usual supernaturals were there... I like that Urban shaman is different and unexpected.

Then I read the "Queen's Bastard" book and it's sequel... and was horrified this was the same author. So glad there were only two books because any more would have been a crime against this author's reputation. Pages and pages of dress descriptions and sluttery. Granted I like a good sex scene as much as the next gal, but the fashion and sex in these books was tedious and slightly sickening.

If you are going to read any CE Murphy, I highly recommend just sticking with the Urban Shaman series. Anything else is not the best representation of what this author has to offer.

Cross reference like=ability: If you like the Jane Yellowrock series by Faith Hunter you will like this series.
