Synopsis

Every one of us has the beast inside. But for Kyrie Smith, the beast is no metaphor. Since she was fifteen, when she first shape-shifted into a savage, black panther, Kyrie has questioned her humanity and moved from town to town, searching for a way to feel human again.

Kyrie's lonely life changes forever while waitressing at a cheap diner. Investigating screams from the parking lot, Kyrie stumbles upon a blood-spattered dragon crouching over a mangled human corpse. The dragon changes back into her coworker, Tom, naked, dazed and unable to remember how he got there.

Thrust into a world of shape-shifting dragons, giant cats, and other beasts waging a secret war behind humanity's back, Kyrie may find the answers she seeks—with help from Tom, a mythical object called the Pearl of Heaven, and her own inner beast.

Interesting take on hidden shifters in an urban setting. Particularly as it seems the talent is NOT directly inherited, no parents to learn from. Just the suspicion that you may be crazy?......more

Goodreads review by Jerry on August 20, 2018

Once again I’ve read a series in reverse order, and once again learned that my constructed history of the characters was very wrong on important points. This book introduces us and the characters to Goldport, Colorado, somewhere near Colorado Springs. The action centers around a diner, The Athens in......more

Goodreads review by Mara on March 12, 2013

<3 This is a weird little UF book. It has an interesting plot centring on a mystery and an absolutely fresh world-building (I think it's the first time I read of insect-shifters). There's good characterization with some in-dept HAHA moments. :) Its main problem? The pace, slow as a snail in some point......more
