Synopsis

Revisit Cat and Bones in this companion anthology to the Night Huntress series, and see what could’ve happened.With deleted scenes—some never-before-seen by the public—and alternate histories, forgotten side-plots, additional love scenes, and increased personal revelations, this anthology is the culmination of the decade’s worth of hidden work that went into Cat and Bones’ story. While writing the fourth book in the series, author Jeaniene Frost, at the insistence of her husband, pursued the idea of getting the first one, Halfway to the Grave, finally published. Paring her stories down to only the scenes that kept the pacing taut and advanced the main plot was a ruthless process. Though she loved the original versions of the stories, it is sometimes a necessary evil to “kill your darlings,” as Stephen King would say. In the end, it was worth every strike of the pen—Cat and Bones became a reality. The Night Huntress series went on to be a New York Times bestselling series, winning awards and spawning several spin-off series and amassing a cult following across the nation.Here Jeaniene Frost has amassed all of her extra writings from the first four books which have been heretofore hidden away on old disks and CDs, in long-forgotten emails, and guarded behind password-protected files to reveal the what-could-have-beens in the lives of Cat, Bones, Mencheres, Vlad, and more.

Goodreads review by Jennifer on March 29, 2016

As you can imagine, quite a few scenes get deleted from a seven book series. This was the case with Jeaniene Frost's Night Huntress series. Oh how I adore that series...and miss it! It's all done. No more to be written. Ever. Yes, I had a bit of grieving time when I finished the final book but oh how......more

Goodreads review by Jilly on August 12, 2017

This would make no sense if you haven't read the series, but I really liked reading the author's thoughts about her own books. I love that she said she always writes her opening chapters too long and that they get cut every time. And, mostly, I was happy that she cut out the entire idea of Cat havin......more

Goodreads review by Cyndi on March 22, 2018

Great addition to the series! All the outtakes are prefaced by the author. Loved all the explanations of why they were left out of the books. This is why writers need to hang on to their edited parts instead of just erasing it. Someday all us fans will be salivating for just one more scene.......more

Goodreads review by Carmel (Rabid Reads) on April 07, 2016

Reviewed by: Rabid Reads. Nothing beats discovering an anthology, novella or deleted scene from one of your top Urban Fantasy series unless it’s finding all three-in-one AND doing so two years after you thought that you’d been forever limited to cameo appearances in spin-off worlds. It’s important to......more
