Great strong female lead

Good writing. Single mom with teen girl issues, as a backdrop to solving murders. I liked the strong central character.

This was a great read! The characters were strong and well developed. The author did a great job and the story was very engaging. My only regret was this was the last book. I'm hoping to read more of Susan Ee's other books. The main character in her book (Penryn) was strong and I love women who never waver. A really great read! Try 'the Order of the Quest'. The main character is a young girl who is strong like Penryn. It was a great read too. I liked the Luxen Series as well.

I loved this book!!! The series just keeps getting better. If you are looking for a book with a very strong female lead this is the one for you. The heroine takes no crap from anybody and dishes it out as well as the boys. I suggest all the books in this series but if you need one to get you hooked start in the middle and read this one!

Reminds me a lot of the early Honor Harrington Books - well written, taut plotting, excellent and strong female lead, historical settings/context.

I enjoyed the story line.  the main character was  very refreshing a strong female lead with some weaknesses.  She can develop into a stronger female lead with out having to depend on a male counterpart to keep her strong and in control of the situation..

I love books with strong female characters.  I was skeptical of reading this book at first, thinking it would be all blood and gore, but the storyline is compelling and I love that the protagonist is both strong and confident, yet vulnerable at the same time.  I think it's a great book for older girls to read.

I really enjoyed the book. I also got a kick out of the kick-ass female lead. Can't wait to get the follow up books in this series.

Loved the protagonist. Its rare to read a paranormal fantasy with a strong female lead where the lead isn't constantly leaping into danger because its The Only Choice. I really appreciated how calm and steady Helena was in the face of everything happening to her.

I enjoyed this book because I love fantasy and magic.  But what I really loved about this book was the strong feminist values imbued in the female err characters.  These aren't weak women wrongly accused of witchcraft and taken to the gallows.  These are real witches with incredible powers who choose to use them only for good.  I was reminded of Octavia Butler's book Wild Seed, as Gideon relentlessly pursues Bess across time and space, much the way Doro hunted Anyanwu.  There are many parallels, including the choices that women with power make in stark contrast to those of men.  We need strong heroines like Brackston's

If you like strong women protagonists, this is a good book for you. Ronnie is tough but multi dimensional. The action is fast-paced and unpredictable. Definitely a good read.

Strong female lead,  solid world building, and I can't wait to read the next one. I am a big fan of Kim Harrison, and this seems to be similar.

Was very pleasantly surprised with this book.  I've been looking for a good series with a strong female lead.  This one is ti.  I'm on the second book now.  Hopefully this author can keep my interest.

I really liked the strong leading lady. She is fierce and overcomes the comments against her. This is a growing up saga where we watch her become a compassionate person who helps out friends and strangers while feeling that she is separated from everyone by her pedigree and training. I've read several of Jasmine Walt's books now and I keep coming back for more. Mostly because her characters get over their emotional hang ups and solve the puzzle.

I enjoy a strong female lead, who doesn't run around in high heels being stunningly beautiful in her quest to save the world. Nightblade is more about characters than world building, and I found the characters interesting and empathetic.
