Forget the Audio Book...Read the Book Instead.......2006-12-14
Like all the Joanna Brady series, Shoot/Don't Shoot is full of interesting, multi-dimensional characters, intriguing, exciting, and overloaded with side plots. The audio version by Ellen Travolta, however, is ineptly read. She has a good voice but seems to have just picked up the book and started reading with no preparation. The phrasing is stumbling, and she even stutters occasionally. The mispronunciations of place names, surnames and even ordinary words are so bad and so frequent as to be distracting. Save your money and read the book if you can.
Definitely A Bulls-Eye.......2005-04-15
In J.A. Jance's book revolving around the life of Joanna Brady, the just-elected sheriff enrolls in a police academy to learn the ins and outs of police work. You'd think this would be a boring premise for a book, but with Jance writing it, it's anything but dull especially when Joanna's classmate is murdered and she's determined to help find the killer. It's not just class lectures and books for her, as she's thrown into the middle of mayhem. While she's learning how to investigate crimes, her new skills are immediately put to the test, as the murder investigation becomes personal since Joanna knew and liked the victim.
As a subplot, Joanna does have a few hours of "down" time and she spends it in a little hole-in-the-wall bar that makes the best cheeseburgers around. Of course sparks fly between the bartender/owner of the bar (Butch Dixon) and Joanna. Jance increases her cast of support characters with the friends Joanna makes in Phoenix and you can be sure that a few will resurface in later books.
While reading this I wondered if Jance would have Joanna jump into a new relationship so soon after her husband's death. To me that would have changed the attributes of her main character, and in doing so would have possibly lessened my enjoyment of this series. Joanna Brady's strong emotions, her desire for self-preservation, viability, etc. are a large part of what makes these books so pleasurable. At the same time, when Joanna leaves Phoenix to return to Bisbee, I didn't want to think that she'd never see Butch Dixon again and kept hoping that "maybe in the future...". (Ok, I'll admit it - I'm a romantic at heart!)
This tale is a little different for Jance since it takes place in Phoenix, Arizona instead of Bisbee. I lived outside of Phoenix for almost five years and have to say that Jance's descriptions were extremely accurate. I remember reading this and thinking, "I've been there". There are a few places that only exist in our imaginations, such as Butch Dixon's bar, but it so closely resembles several others in the area that it could very well be one of them.
This is a typical J.A. Jance novel full of wonderful descriptions of not only surrounding areas but also of people in general. There's definitely a few twists and turns along the journey (I'd be disappointed if it were a straight-line venture) and the ending will surprise you.
If you haven't read this series, I'd highly recommend that you do so. Many years ago when I had the good fortune to run into this writer in a bookstore she told me that many had compared her to Mary Higgins Clark. After reading her previous work, I agreed with that comparison until this series was published. Now I believe she surpasses Clark in every aspect of what makes a great author!
It Went Ahead and Made My Day.......2004-08-31
As Joanna Brady makes the shift from Candidate to Sheriff, Jance takes us on a quick-and-dirty primer of police procedure. Attending the Arizona Police Officers Academy (APOA) so she can hold her own with her more-experienced law enforcement staff, Brady finds herself struggling to keep up with classwork, coping with changes in her familial network (the recent loss of her husband, among other things), dodging Cupid's arrows, and trying to keep an innocent man from throwing his life away. And then a homicidal maniac starts stalking her.
Shoot/Don't Shoot has a very convoluted structure, with Jance keeping half a dozen plot lines running at any given time. At times the book was a bit angsty for my taste, and the final few chapters seemed plot-driven, rather than developing as a result/consequence of choices the characters made. It diminishes the quality of the book slightly, but with so much taking place in the novel she can't dwell on any one thing for long.
The "mysteries" in the book aren't that complex. Granted you don't know the name of the serial killer until the end, but you can make some pretty accurate ballpark guesses about his identity. There are also some odd details about the APOA facility that seemed fairly obvious; Jance does a fairly good job using them to enhance the suspense, though. Other details, however, are hidden so obviously in plain sight that I found myself getting irritated that Brady wasn't paying any attention to them.
If you haven't read any of Jance's Sheriff Joanna Brady mysteries, this would be an okay place to start. It brings you up to speed fairly well with the events of the first two books in the series, without straying far from its own storyline in the process. On the other hand, if you don't deal well with blatant melodrama, you might want to get to know Joanna under less stressed circumstances so you're already invested in her character before reading this at-times-frustrating book.
Superb Series, Great book.......2002-12-14
I have been reading this series in order. Although each book can stand alone, later books reference earlier books and it is, in my opinion, much more enjoyable to read them in order so you know the complete history.
Having said all of that, this is the best book I have read to date in this series.
Joanna was elected sherrif and is off for training. By doing a favor for a friend of a friend, she runs into a serial killer that has escaped detection for many years. There is a touch, just a tiny touch, of romance. There is also a very stressful period of time when her daughter has been kidnapped and the kidnapper has killed himself and the police are searching frantically for Joanna's daughter and the daughter's friend.
This book moves right along, the characters are well developed and there is excitement. I particularly liked the ending.
Enjoy.
Terror at the police academy.......2001-09-17
New sherriff Joanna Brady finds terror at the Arizona Police Officer Academy. She must solve multiple homicides before she becomes a victim. Will she live? Hint: there are more books to come. This is not a whodunit. The reader will not know the killer's identity until our hero finds him.

No stars!.......2007-07-03
This book was absolutely horid!
This definitely goes to show that what others have rated highly here, may not be universally liked.
Esme is a petulant, annoying, whiny, griping SHREW! I felt sad for the hero to be shackled to her.
And where was the romance ? Thankfully I borrowed this from the library.
28 year-old profligate with a child-girl? .......2007-07-02
Loretta Chase's THE LION'S DAUGHTER drove me to the brink of swearing off all romance stories altogether. It also goes to show you that different isn't always good or necessarily enjoyable. I've created a new score (zero) specifically for such terrible novels such as these. I'm shocked I finished THE LION'S DAUGHTER. THE LION'S DAUGHTER drums out a child-girl's insecurities over her appearance while highlighting a dissolute rakehell's god-like appearance. In fact, many of the male characters admire the hero's god-like appearance, and we as readers are supposed to be heartened by a 28 year-old god-like libertine falling for a child (both in appearance and personality) a decade his junior. While this is common during the medieval ages, I found it jarring during the regency time period, especially considering the heroine's child-like appearance. I think we're supposed to laugh at the child-girl's constant bickering and snide, superior attitude towards everyone and especially the profligate hero (throughout). Predictably, everyone in the novel encourages the child-girl's superior, bickering attitude as though it's the new fad, like it's "in" to be superior, spit out scathing words 24/7, and lack an ounce of a desirable appearance. Someone needed to shut up this child-girl more than even Henley's Eleanor from THE DRAGON AND THE JEWEL. The rakehell hero was little more than a handsome puppy dog for the child-girl to cuddle with and service the child-girl's "passion" at her becking call.
Let's just say I didn't find any of this entertaining and the fact that I'm wasting time writing about this novel even more odious.
The plot was different for a regency romance. Not better different though. Taking place mostly in Albania, it tells of an Englishman dubbed the Red Lion and his 18 year-old child-like daughter's plight for revenge after learning her father was murdered. My gawd, the plot was bad, I think similar to the child heroine, there's only one way to describe it: an inchoate cesspool. There's supposed to be intrigue and adventure but it consisted mostly of adolescent conversations and vacuous thoughts. Oh and by the way, there's no settings, and the prose was bad, bad, bad.
I wouldn't read it for the romance or the sensual scenes either. They're on the same base level of quality as the plot, settings and characterizations.
Just trying to forget it all now. Please, if you have any respect for yourselves and sanity, avoid this at all costs.
A different sort of Regency.......2007-04-16
Loretta Chase's novels seem to be rather variable but always interesting. I loved "Lord Of Scoundrels" which has a dreadful cover but is a great story; "Captives Of The Night" was a very different read (although with some characters in common with "Lord Of Scoundrels"), with far more mystique and secrecy in the plot and characters, but it was still very good. I didn't like "Miss Wonderful" at all, one of her more recent books and far more in the traditional regency romance vein. So, what's "The Lion's Daughter" like?
This book is also related to characters in "Captives Of The Night" and "Lord Of Scoundrels" and is, in fact, chronologically before them - by about ten years. Not that it seems to matter which order you read the books in, although the central character in "Captives Of The Night" features in this book as a villain, which makes for interesting reading.
What's so fascinating about this book is the setting; there's no jaunting around London at balls and routs, most of the action takes place in Albania. It's very clear that Loretta Chase knows an awful lot about Albanian life and society in the 1820s as the descriptions are excellent, not just of places but of manners, behaviour and expectations. Although the story ends up in England it still has a rather wild and different flavour than the traditional Regency with a look at a failing estate and how that might be turned around.
The story focuses on Esme Brentmor, daughter of Jason, an Englishman, and of an Albanian woman; Jason has lived in Albania for 20 years and his daughter has grown up strongly part of that culture although also being aware of her English side. She is in danger of kidnap from Ismal who wants to use her as a hostage against her father so, when her father dies, she vows revenge. However her plans are somewhat upset when she finds herself looking after her cousin Percival, 12 years old, and a man who has been travelling with Percival, Varian St George, a dissolute and penniless aristocratic rake.
Varian and Esme soon find themselves fencing verbally and sometimes struggling physically (Esme is rather a wildcat). Her plan to get revenge on Ismal isn't compatible with Varian's plan to return her and Percival to Percival's father in Corfu, thus the two main characters are continually scheming against each other. Somewhere in the middle of this they find they are attached to each other and yet neither really understands what's going on most of the time, plus there is still danger to them - a piece is missing from a very valuable chess set and everyone is looking for that piece.
There are some twists and turns in the plot, of course, and the usual subterfuge; Esme's character doesn't change particularly but Varian is very much improved by the love of a good woman; he was a difficult hero to like initially, being a wastrel gaming rake, but the reader is left pretty confident that all will go well for them.
Although I did enjoy this book I didn't find it that gripping - I read several other novels over the time I was reading this - and although the setting was fun being so different the love story aspect wasn't as satisfying as some might wish for in a historical romance. Still, setting and historicity seemed very good and the Albanian angle was a real change. A book to read and enjoy when in the right frame of mind.
More than a Romance.......2006-09-24
While all the Loretta Chase books I've read have been great, this earlier book was substantially different from her others and is now my favorite. Yes, it was a romance and I loved the character development of both Esme and Varian as the book progressed. They didn't change overnight, and even at the end, Esme's hot temper was part of who she was as a person. There was no bolt-of-lightning romance, but love snuck up on them in spite of themselves.
Yet, the book was also a relatively complex adventure story full of political and personal intrigue. It had a large cast of supporting characters, all with various hidden agendas, who were sometimes difficult to keep straight. While I was initially disappointed in this extended focus, I soon discovered that the broader scope created a fantastic book!!! I recommended my husband read the book as it was so good (and he's NEVER before read a romance). He loved it too.
So ... if you're looking for light romance, just pass on this one. If you prefer a engaging historical full of adventure, intrigue, humor, and romance as well, pick this one up. It's a definite keeper!!!
too much rambling...........2006-03-26
I really have always enjoyed Loretta Chase, but this book was a big disapointment. The characters seemed to have no connection and the dialog was sometimes difficult to get thru. I actually did not even finish the book, because I really did not care what happened to Esme and Varian. If you want a good book get Lord of Scoundrels, but leave this one on the shelf

Satisfying Stories That Linger.......2004-07-13
It might not seem like four short stories can have much impact, but something about these supernatural tales lingers in the mind long after you've read them. The characters and settings are unusual and engaging, and the stories themselves are not disturbing like some tales of the supernatural, but satisfying.

Stay away. Stay far, far away..........2004-12-13
Before I begin, please let me state: I am a huge fan of Jennifer Roberson, and I've made a mental note to leave adoring reviews for other, beloved books in order to pay penance for what I'm about to write.
Because I'm really gonna lay into her in this one.
Continuing the Cheysuli Chronicles, we now have the story of Keely, the stereotypical pseudo-feminist (in this case) tomboy princess who would rather practice swordplay than embroider linens. And what do we have here? An arranged marriage! How not at all unorginal and cliche in terms of convenient plot twists -- because, of course, she wants to be a warrior, not a wife. Cue hijinks.
TERRIBLE book. Absolutely terrible. Poorly structured, uncentered, and Roberson tried to deal with serious issues that just shouldn't be dealt with in a magical context. (I'm sorry, but they shouldn't. I'm all for discussion of whether or not one should abort a child of rape, but not when said child is actually the product of months of magical torture and imprisonment by a sadistic archenemy, and its prophesized birth would bring about the downfall of your family and thus THE ENTIRE WORLD. Put that way, it's a no-brainer.) And "Daughter" earns the dubious honor of the worst cop-out ending in the world. I can't stress how much this book upset me with its sheer awfulness.
The thing is, this is an early novel of a very good, very intellegent author -- so it's allowed to be awful. Every writer writes several bad books before they hit jackpot. And the seeds of Roberson's later greatness are there to see -- the fact that she attempts to deal with issues of gender identity and a woman's sexual status foreshadow some of the really wonderful insights she provides in later books, like "Lady of the Forest" or any of the Sword books. But in this one she just botches it. As I tried to show in the example above, Roberson chooses the wrong issues to tackle and in the wrong context. To top it all off, I found Keely wildly unsympathetic. She whined, she moaned, she muttered, she made very stupid and obvious mistakes that made me want to throw the book across the room. If you're looking for strong, rebellious heroines -- and I often do -- there are so many better choices out there. Check out the Song of the Lioness Quartet, "The Lion and the Sword," or "The Deed of Paksenarrion" for much more mature, realistic, and engaging accounts of fantasy female fighters.
This book might appeal to a younger reader whose idea of rebellion includes impetuously running away from home, but if you're looking for a book that REALLY challenges conventional norms, look elsewhere. (Possibly a different Roberson book.)
Keely and me...........2003-12-02
It was awhile after I was given this book that I read it, but after I did I came to relize.... I love this book!!! I can very much relate to Keely's personality and I love fantasy stories so it was a perfect mix ^_^
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Keely is unique . . ........2003-06-27
. . . she's a warrior, a princess, a shapechanger who, unlike her fellow Cheysuli, can take any shape whatsoever and talk with any lir (totem animal) while being bound by none (again, unlike any other Cheysuli). But she's lonely. Her brother Corin has gone off to rule Atvia, her other brothers Hart and Brennan are doing their own things too (ruling other kingdoms, or helping to rule), and in any event, she's miserable.
Topping everything off, she's about to be married off, which she hates. She's trained, mostly in secret, to become the best warrior possible. She fights with knife, bow, and in lir-shape; she does not want to be told she's weak in any way, shape or form. And she most certainly doesn't want to marry, as the only marriages and long term relationships she's ever seen have been predicated on the women being weaker than the men -- and them liking it that way.
And that's definitely not for her. What's to do?
Keely's betrothed, Prince Sean, looks on from afar, and is impressed. He likes her spirit and wants her for herself, yet he knows she won't believe him. Why would she, when she's been told so many inaccurate things about how to behave "like a woman," when she's never been any of them (meek, mild, eager to please, inoffensive)? He pretty much figures, "Why would she believe me, anyway? Even though I do want her as is." So he devises an ingenious plan . . . .
I don't want to give away too much more of the plot than that. Suffice it to say that Keely is a very engaging character; she's smart, tough, nobody's fool, and extremely impetuous. She's also gifted, a good warrior, a loyal friend and companion -- and manages to get taken running away from her betrothed, right into the arms of Strahan the Ihlini.
One problematic point. There is an extremely long series of rapes in this book; some younger readers might miss it, but just in case, it'd be better not to have them read it until they're older and can understand. It is consistent with how Strahan has been shown in earlier Cheysuli books; the man is evil, and doesn't care who he hurts so long as he does right by his own lights -- which are deeply and horribly skewed due to early influences by his father.
I respected Keely all the more after she'd been raped, because she didn't give up. As she swelled in pregnancy, she refused to give in, despite believing her child would be the worst tainted imaginable (due to her mother's mental illness and Strahan's evilness). The child dies, thankfully unborn; that spared a whole lot of angst on that side.
However, just because the child ends up dying before birth doesn't mean the moral implications are shirked; Ms. Roberson explores 'em all, with great virtuosity and depth of feeling. Anyone reading of Keely's plight will share her pain in the horrible circumstances, while sighing in relief after her unborn child (born of the rape) dies unborn, unless they are totally callous and have no heart whatsoever.
What Keely fights in the latter half of the book is not only societal strictures against the "appropriate" roles for women, but also her own beliefs. She never wanted this to happen, and loses most of her self-esteem, sense of worthiness, and becomes deeply depressed, yet hides her condition from others. This, too, is very plausible; it's how victims of rape act, especially if they've become pregnant from the act of violence.
It's because of Keely's heroism, internal and external, that I'd recommend this book not only to fantasy and romance readers, but to others who need to know there is a way to survive and go on. Keely managed it; others can too, by reading how she manages to survive. Even though Keely is a fictional character, she's true to life, moving, honest, and seems more real than many people you might meet on the streets of the world's cities today.
Better yet, Keely rebuilds her life, if painfully, and finds not only life again, but love eternal, all without sacrificing one iota of her beliefs. This is an extremely powerful, uplifting message, one worth sharing with just about everyone you know in my opinion.
Highly recommended for anyone over the age of about fourteen or fifteen. Five stars plus.
Daughter of the lion.......2002-08-21
This is one of the best books I have ever read .It starts with keally sword fighting a habit knowen by those who have read the books that came before this. Ironically her sister in law is with a child again and keally has her temper flaered up again by this for Alieein may die. then finding out she is bethroed to sean, then meeting his half brother rory she finds out that sean,well never mind I can`t tell you, you have to read this great series.
Great Book.......2001-11-30
This book is a great read, and definitly one of my favorite in the Cheysuli series. Daughter of the Lion focuses on Keely, Niall's daughter. Keely is a greatr heroine, a lot like Alix in many aspects. In a Pride of Princes (book 5), Keely's 3 brothers had to accept their destinies as well as fight off the Ihlini. In this book, Keely finally faces the challenges the of the Ihlini and learns to accept that she is a woman, even though she was raised on weapons. Sean and Rory are great characters, too, and theirs an interesting plot twist at the end. Also, more of Taliesin, the Ihlini harper, whom I love, the a'saii (cheysuli purists), and Maeve, Keely's older half sister, although she does not play a crucial role in the story.
This book gave me another loveable heroine, who will not be forced to do what she decides not too, and who can fight for herself. If you liked book 1 (Shapechangers), my other favorite, and Alix's character, then your bound to like Daughter of the Lion, too (or vice versa). Also, in reading this book it does hgelp if you have some background with the Cheysuli books, although you dont have to have read the other books; it can stand alone. In all events, this is a great read, and I heartily reccomend it, especially to cheysuli readers.
