Rating: 2 stars
Summary: pretty boring
Review: I was so excited by the reviews that I bought this book. It was a let down. The plot is pretty unbelievable (which I could live with in a romance novel), but I really didn't care about the outcome of it at all. The choice to start the book near the end and then go through a mammoth flashback was not inspired. It didn't add anything to the book except make it even more predictable. The sex scenes were also boring - not horribly written, but the characters were not well sketched out, so it was a little difficult to care if they were sleeping together and it was not that interesting from a purely physical point of view.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Robin Hood Never Looked So Good!
Review: Marsha Canham has a wonderful writing style and I must admit I had a real problem picking my favorite book from her! This particular series (The Black Wolf series - Through a Dark Mist, In The Shadow of Midnight and The Last Arrow) is simply incredible!

Through a Dark Mist is a dramatic story in the style of Robin Hood. This book has everything - legend, swashbuckling romance, fantasy, adventure, rollicking good humor, wildly exciting escapades, cliffhangers, and most of all, smoldering sensuality! Lady Servanne de Briscourt is on her way to meet her betrothed Lucien (The Dragon) de Gournay, when her party is attacked by brigands led by the notorious Black Wolf.

Lady Servanne de Briscourt. She is beautiful and strong and very independent. Her interaction with the Wolf's band of outlaws is funny, touching and always interesting - but her love for The Wolf is breathtaking. Maid Marian has nothing on this heroine!

The Black Wolf. Oh how I wish this book was made into a movie just to see who they would cast in this part! He would have to be a combination of actors: Douglas Fairbanks with a dash of Mel Gibson, add in some Kevin Costner and maybe just a tad bit of Errol Flynn and I think you would have your perfect Wolf! He is timeless and he is eternity all rolled up into one. Throughout the series (two sequels) there is still the quality that draws you to him throughout his years! If you dare to read about The Wolf, you chance melting into a puddle of sensations!

As always the secondary characters are of the utmost importance to me and fortunately I was not let down. Every character in this book - including the villain (the "Dragon") deserves an honorable mention because they were exceptional.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough! You will just have to read it - there is no other choice in the matter!

Summary: Watch out Robin Hood, here comes Black Wolf!
Review: Not only was this the ultimate love story, but it was set in what I think was the most romantic period in history. Medieval jousts, men in armour, brooding castles and HIGH adventure make this book a definite keeper. If its true this is a trilogy, I cannot wait to read the others!

Summary: The "dark" forest and intrigue draw you in.
Review: This is the first book by Marsha Canham that I read. I have every one of her books. I couldn't wait to read the second and, then, the third - The Last Arrow. So many possibilities present themselves as to who these men are in the forest - could it be Robin Hood and his merry men? All I wanted to do was read on to find out. Marsha Canham is also in my list of "Top Five Authors".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great! Exciting!
Review: This was my first book by this author and I loved it. I will read the next two books in the series as well as other books by Ms. Canham. This book had excitement, humor, steamy passages...what more could you want?
