The Keeping by Nicky CharlesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Book #2: Law of the Lycans Series
So far I've thoroughly loved this series; good solid story-telling like old fashioned school dinners. By that I mean, nourishing and rib sticking with no fancy trimmings. The girl knows her at around a comma splice too!
The plot moved along quite well; a nice twist developed half way through. Actually, I think that this author has the ability to take risks, and I'd love to see her really go to town in the way of twists, turns and double dealing.
I'm amazed that Nicky is writing this series for no recompense: she is thoroughly worth paying to read!

Errors/Bug Bears:
I can't lie, there is some non-standard English in her work, but the level was low enough not to be too annoying to me.
I made more notes in total than the first book.
I had forgotten to make a note of the locations, but they range from the beginning to Loc 2321:
We found her on the propriety - property.
And then it was the weirdest thing, just liked you'd see in a cartoon - like.
Why don't you two go see - go and see.
With a disappointed sigh, she fell back asleep - this is me being fussy, but back to sleep just sounds better.

Loc 2594: Sneaking a peak at his face - peek.
Loc 2765: Because it's pouring rain - pouring with rain.
Loc 3340: ...and leaving me in a lurch - in the lurch.
Loc 3437: ...go get those cameras - uck!
Loc 3557: ...up toThe Broken Antler - up to The Broken Antler.
