Spider’s Revenge-Jennifer Estep

Spider’s Revenge


Jennifer Estep

Pocket, Sep 27 2011, $7.99

ISBN: 9781439192641



When stone-ice elemental Gin Blanco was a teen, Mab Monroe the fire elemental murdered her mother and her sister. Gin dedicated her life seeking vengeance. Diligently training for the moment, the cold blooded assassin called Spider has been changed by those who cherish her especially her lover Owen Grayson. Thus when the opportunity arises for the final kill, she misses the shot with her crossbow.



Mab knows the true identity of Spider and why she targets her. She places an exorbitant amount of money for the head of Spider and Bria the babysitter. Prepared for a lone wolf mano a mano with Mab and her cohorts including a zillion or so bounty hunters, Gin is stunned when those who love her stand at her side.



Readers, who have anxiously waited for the High Noon showdown in the Elemental Assassins urban fantasy saga (see Spider’s Bite, Web of Lies, Venom, Tangled Threads, and Spider’s Revenge), will not be disappointed with Spider’s Revenge. The heroine has come a long way in preparing to execute her vendetta, but the thing she could not prevent is the love and caring for others that ironically soften her to where her edge may be to dull. Action-packed with a strong cast, Jennifer Estep provides a strong tale in which the story line surpasses fans anticipation.
