Blood of the Earth

Faith Hunter always does a fantastic job of creating a fully fleshed out and interesting world. Interesting world, interesting magic/rules, interesting characters.

Nell Ingram lives on Soulwood. That's the name of her property. She is connected to the land. Not sure what that makes her, she is content to just be. Life would be good if the people from her old church (or cult) would leave her alone. They want her and they want her land. They will take both by force if need be. She is all alone, knowing that if enough of them come, she doesn't stand a chance no matter how many guns she has. Then, along comes PsyLED, a paranormal Homeland Security unit. They are looking for some kidnappers and believe they have ties to her old cult. To help them, Nell is going to have to let go of all the nonsense she was taught by the church and embrace who she really is. I absolutely loved this book!!! It grabbed me right from the start and left me wanting more. The story was great, and I loved the characters. Faith Hunter does it again! I received a copy of this book from Net Galley.
