I thought I was reading a new book, and the copyright date in the book says 2010. However, this is one of Cheyenne McCray's "Wild" books, "Wild Borders" to be precise, published first as an e-book, then in trade paperback from Ellora's Cave. <br /><br />This is the 3rd book in her Armed and Dangerous series, and after getting all of the original "Wild" books out of storage, they are simply all rewritten and the characters names have all been changed for the Armed and Dangerous series. I would suggest that if this author continues to rewrite books, and rename her characters, then they should have some giveaway that you are not purchasing a new book. How can you slap a 2010 copyright date on a book that was published under a different name in 2003? You have a new publisher, so that makes it OK to do this?<br /><br />Will I read the next book? No, it will be another new and improved version of her last "Wild" book. I have already paid for this series in (1)E-book format from Ellora’s Cave (2) trade paperback from Ellora's Cave, and (3) the first 3 books in trade paperback from St. Martin’s now known as the Armed and Dangerous series. Enough is enough!Teri Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01149616939319680796noreply@blogger.com
