Book Review - A Stroke of Midnight

A Stroke of Midnight is the latest Meredith Gentry novel by Laurell K. Hamilton. Meredith is a faerie Princess fighting for her throne amidst assassination attempts and court intrigue. Oh, and there's lots of sex, too. I describe these books as faerie porn. I never thought I'd say this about anything, but there's too much sex and not enough plot in this one.

Hamilton is, well, let's just say very creative in her sex scenes. Meredith has a foursome with two of her faerie bodyguards and a goblin, metaphysical sex where her partner melts into the earth and more. This fourth book in the series doesn't advance the plot very much at all but the sex was quite interesting.

One minor complaint that I'm probably being too picky about: Hamilton is repetitive with her phrasing. In her Anita Blake books, she uses the phrase 'sleeping together like a pile of puppies' all the time in some form or another. It popped up in this book twice and both times, I was like "dang it!".
