I have read books one and two of the Nightrunner series. Really good. I have to give her a small critique of being very repetitive in some of the scenes, but I couldn't put it down. On book number three right now. it is by Lynn Flewelling if anyone is interested. I give it a 9 out of 10, 10 being Harry Potter
I also read the Draegon series that someone suggested. It was an ok story, but the smut didn't really help the story line.
Next I am going to try Magiks Pawn and that series. Thanks for all the suggestions. Even with all these great books, still isn't what I am looking for. I will have to write it myself!
