They are good, but Blood, Fangs and Going Furry #3.2 gave some things away. I think I should have at least read up to book three Mercy Blade before diving into the short stories and novellas in the Jane Yellowrock series. I’ve only read book one Skinwalker before I picked these short stories up. Each are enjoyable and give you a little background on Jane and Rick.
#Shortcat jane series
Later in the summer when I have time to read this series again I look forward to reading book 7 and the short story that comes after it.Ĭat Tales features 4 short stories in the Jane Yellowrock series.

Hunter lets you know when each short takes place, after which book, so you know when to read each short without spoiling anything. It is a good way to collect all the shorts and it even works as a companion piece to people who are reading the series.
#Shortcat jane plus
That is because BIHV contains the 8 Shorts from Cat Tales and Have Stakes Will Travel, plus another 11 more making a total of 19 short stories in one collection. BIHV came out years after I purchased these two short collections or I would have not bothered myself. I do want to point out that I would not recommend purchasing either of these collections and instead I would suggest buying Blood in Her Veins: Nineteen Stories from the World of Jane Yellowrock. But the last short about Rick getting furry I could have done without.Īll in all Cat Tales is a good collection and a bit better that Have Stakes Will Travel. I did find the short “Cat Tats” actually pretty interesting since it shows how he got his cat tattoos. I can’t stand Rick and I’m hoping he disappears as the series goes on. I was disappointed that the last two shorts stared Rick. I also really enjoyed “Kits” which showed the first real bond between Beast and Angie. This was really good and I would love a novella or book that expanded more on young Jane’s life. In “The Early Years” we get to learn more about 18 year old Jane. Both collections contain 4 shorts each with Cat Tales being the more enjoyable of the collections. I read both Cat Tales and Have Stakes, Will Travel.

It worked so well that I was surprised how much these new to me shorts helped spark my memories of the series.

I figured it would be a great way to get reintroduced to all the characters. What I decided to do instead was to read 2 collections of short stories (that take place in the Jane Yellowrock world) that have been sitting on my kindle for years. I was worried that when I started on book 7 (which is where I left off all those years ago) that it would take me a while to remember everything. The Jane Yellowrock series is one of my favorites but it has been years, at least 5 or 6, since I read any of the books. I have been reading so much lesfic that I have not had time to read some of my favorite mainstream paranormal/urban fantasy books anymore. What I decided to do instead was to read 2 collecti 3.50 Stars. And don’t miss a special excerpt: the first three chapters from the newest Jane Yellowrock novel, Raven Cursed!. Plus, get a never-before-seen index of vampire clans and alliances and a letter from the author about the origins of Jane Yellowrock. And, in the final, all-new story, find out what happened between Jane and Rick seconds after the end of Mercy Blade. Discover the story behind Cajun cop Rick LaFleur’s cat tattoos - and the powerful witch who inked them. Meet Jane as she leaves the orphanage she was raised in and encounters the witch who’ll become her future best friend.
