Summary: A great read!!!
Review: One of the best books Lowell has written. Fast-paced and edgy, it doesn't depend on her standard highly predictable sex scenes or breathless virgin heroines. The connection to her medieval romances is intriguing and her description of medieval manuscripts is fascinating.

Summary: Elizabeth Lowell's Moving Target
Review: Elizabeth Lowell's "Moving Target" is another in a long line of fast-paced, exciting, romantic suspense stories. In many ways, this book was the meeting place, or reunion as it were, or many of Lowell's other stories. The dangerous Donovan men, including the hereto unexamined Lawe--dare we hope his story is coming soon?--and the indominable April Joy, make a minor appearance. Erik the Learned and Serena of the Silverfells, mentioned in the Enchanted, Forbidden and Untamed series play an integral in this modern version of their story. While I have always wished that Lowell would tell Erik's story after reading the others', this was the next best thing. The action prevents you from putting the book down until it was finished and the love story makes you image what it would be like to actually meet your soul mate. If there was one negative that I could mention, it is that there are a plethora of characters brought into play whose purposes are vague and unimportant, which made it difficult to track those who were involved and in what way. Overall however, the book is another example of Lowell's exceptional work.

Summary: This was worth the trash pile!
Review: This book didn't live up to any potential.If you are not going to at least write a decent story to tie up lose ends then don't write it at all. I felt this book was WEAK. First, she tried to get the reader into her book by making it seem like this would be about Eric and Selena's story. It to myself and a few others who read it was a RIP OFF! I used to always look forward to Ms Lowell's books.
I have since found authors that do justice to the characters that they create. The plot was weak in this book.
You had too many chatcters and sub plots.
You don't connect with the main characters.
What you thought you were buying.
A book that would explain about Eric and Selena (from the medevial times) was not what it was about.
Thanks (sarcastic) for sneaky way you made your loyal (not so loyal anymore) fans think they were getting something when they really were not.
I did buy this in hardback.
It sat and collected dust as a group I was with were so disgusted with Ms Lowell and her book that no one wanted to even give it to their friends to read.
I ended up taking it to a used book store. Harsh, yes.
Then again when you dish your fans with a weak story and when you have your older books reprinted to try and make money off them by fooling them into thinking that it is a new book you lose fans.

Summary: Kept trying to care...
Review: I love most of the newer Elizabeth Lowell, but I just couldn't get into this story. First, it's not really a romance. It's a thriller/suspense crime novel with a sex scene thrown in with little warning or payoff. I never really got under the skin of the hero, but Risa, the heroine, was fairly interesting. The little psychic twist seemed unnecessary and unconvincing. Still decent crime plot, some funny moments, and better written than most romances.

Summary: What a waste!
Review: To say the least. I read an interview with Lowell where she said that she gets paid to write from the Publisher and that what they get is what they want. I thought it was what the READERS want! She remarked on this book in particular. She admitted that she never quite finished Eric the Learned's story. Then she goes on to say something about people get too attached to characters and seemed to mock some of the people who were so hung up on her characters that she created.
To her it is easy to let go. Shame on her. I haven't bought a book of hers since that interview. Fine that you don't get into the characters that YOU create.
Mock the fans that buy your books or in this instance stop buying your books!

Summary: Another Lowell Treasure To Devour
Review: I became addicted with my first read of the Donovan series (all four books read - come on: two more at least, one for each remaining male twin!), and branched out to her other contemporaries. I read the sequel to MT first (Running Scared), and immediately dived into this book. Both are well done, but this was better in terms of the well-honed dialogue, plot and historical information on druidism and the art world. Also, there was a very neat, unexpected geneological twist at the end that I didn't see coming! Next on my list is Die In Plain Sight as I eagerly await the NEXT TWO DONOVAN BOOKS (hint hint).

Summary: Big Lowell Fan, but......
Review: After waiting so long to get Erik's story, which was already in place from Enchanted, Forbidden, and Untamed, I am greatly disappointed in Moving Target. Even if this story had not been about a "re-incarnated" Erik and Serena, the reading of it was often tedious due to the excessive description of the Learned Pages. The prologue, which immediately grabbed my attention, and had me on the edge of my seat, was not a reflection of the action that took place in the rest of the story. Personally, I feel that Erik, the learned, still has a story that has been left untold.

Summary: Interesting characters, so-so writing
Review: This book had an intriguing plot and compelling characters. The action moved along at a good pace. There were some clever plot twists I enjoyed. However some of the romance scenes were almost laughably written. But I'm not a romance genre reader so maybe that's why I found them a little strange. I also found some of the mysticism a little out of place, but that's also not a topic I am interested in. All in all this was reasonably entertaining.
