The birds can be a bit over dramatized at times but they are a pivotal part of the story so it stuck with them. I think this is one of my favorite books of the series. I was really sad to read this book as it is ages until book five comes out! New Regime, book 5, is a work in progress. Her debut book, Shiv Crew, is a dark urban fantasy and is followed by Blood and Bite, Strange Trouble, and Obsidian Wings. Laken Cane is an urban fantasy writer living in Ohio. The humans' acceptance is turning to fear. The world is beginning to look at the church differently, thanks to the tireless work of Bill Rice and others like him. Nothing is more important to Shiv Crew than finding Levi and Denim, but when Lex psychically connects with the twins, it isn't good news she brings back.Īs always, COS is at the center of it all. When she gets a whiff of the shifters' scents where COS had been executing a grisly sacrifice, Rune begins to suspect the birds know more about the slayers-and the twins-than they're willing to admit.

Gruesome murders begin to pop up in River County, and Rune is introduced to the bird shifters-to one bird in particular, a woman named Cree Stark.
