A Stroke of Midnight


A Stroke of Midnight, the fourth book in the Merry Gentry series, was very very sexy.
It started with Merry and her men in a press conference talking about the assassination attempt on her life. An idea that her aunt, Queen Andais, thinks would be a good idea.
After the press conference, a fellow fairy and a human was murdered in the sithen (a place for the fairies). So Merry, so worked as a private investigator in L.A., thought it would be a good idea to bring in the human cops, considering a human w
as murdered as well. Queen Andais wasn't really sure but if Merry wanted to have the throne, and Merry thought it
was smart, then she let it be. While the police were in the sithen, she is possessed by the Goddess, and with Mistral, the captain of Queen Adais guards (since Merry has Doyle *pronounced Dole), and brings spring to the sithen. She also wears the ring that the Queen has given her that chooses mates. The ring found Nicca (another of her men) and another fae. And finds that there is a child in the future for those two. The Queen was displeased because she was not able to do that, and pleased because there is a future for the fae with children.
Merry later finds out that she is the one who brings fertility. She later finds out that her cousin Prince Cel, who is the Queen's son, has been losing his people to Merry. Merry found out that a lot of Prince Cel's people really aren't his people. They were handed down from Prince Essus (Merry's father who was murdered when she was a teenager), and they went where they were told. And more and more of the assassination attempts were linked to her cousin (who is being tortured since the first book for the attempts on Merry's life). More truth comes out about Cel that freaks Merry out.
I love Laurell K Hamilton's books, whether it's Anita Blake or Merry Gentry. I am addicted, and people who haven't read her books, will be addicted as well the moment they pick up the first book on either series.
