Blood Brothers (Sign of Seven Trilogy, Book 1)

I've read quite a bit of Nora Roberts. Not every one but many. I loved High Noon and the sisters trilogy so I though I'd pick this up. I read it in just a few days although I did have to re-read some parts as it was sloppy and mishmash in spots. I thought she could have done a much better job. I think she had a deadline to make. Nora, Dear!! Please give me QUALITY reading!

Oh why, did I ever deny what I know from experience to be the truth? The truth is, Nora Roberts is just a pulp romance writer. I know her legions of fans will take offense over this opinion, but I tried so many of her books and have found they are formulaic and poorly written. Blood Brothers has a promising beginning, as Roberts sets up the framework for her trilogy with the unwitting unleashing of an ancient demon as they play in the forest. Then, several chapters later, she introduces Quinn, then the second of her three main female leads, and it all goes to, well, hell. Same old schlocky romance story. Steamy sex despite misgivings. The three male leads will pair up with the three females. All of this encouraged by loving families.
The paranormal part is also hokey. I won't infuriate further by delving into more detail, but it would be laughably easy to do so.
What's the old saying? If something looks too good to be true, it probably is.

I have been a Nora Roberts fan for years. That being said, Blood Brothers, has to be one of the worse books I have ever read. I struggled to finish the book. The plot was absurd and boring. Thank goodness I did not buy this book but instead borrowed the book from the library. I have become very disappointed in her writing style in the last few years. I hesitate to purchase any of her books.

Wonderful !! I loved the whole series it was just so well written such a love story. Timeless !!

This book and the second are awesome writings, My only regret is that I have ot wait till December for hte final book. Just have to reread. That will be enjoyable. Agian another well written book. Throughly enjoyed it.
