Narrative As Books Don't Kill The Messenger (Messenger #1)

View our feature on Eileen Rendahl's Don't Kill the Messenger. The first in a fantastic new paranormal series about a messenger from the supernatural underworld.

Melina Markowitz is a Messenger, a go-between for paranormal forces and supernatural creatures. Problem is, when a girl's a go-between, it's hard not to get caught in the middle...

When ninjas steal an envelope from Melina, her search leads her to a Taoist temple in Old Sacramento, where the priests seem to practice Zen and the art of mayhem. Melina learns from the handsome ER doctor (and vampire) who gave her the envelope that it contained talismans created by the priests to control Chinese vampires, who are attacking gang members to spark a street war.

Although he may look more like a surfer than a cop, Ted Goodnight is dead serious about investigating the surge in gang violence. At every turn he runs into Melina, a very attractive-and very mysterious-young woman. Can Melina enlist his help to battle something he doesn't even believe in without blowing her cover?

Criticism Epithetical Books Don't Kill The Messenger (Messenger #1)

2.5 stars.Meh... I'm really not sure I can be bothered to write a proper review about this. It had some good ideas and it wasn't awful, in fact it was purely mediocre and perhaps that's most of the problem I have with it. There's some good ideas floating around, but there's also a lot of time spent with the character not doing much other than driving around bitching about how she doesn't want to be a Messenger and No-One Asked Her. Of course in real life I'd have some sympathy for her, but in a

Melina acts as a go-between for the supernatural around Sacramento. Not by her choice. If an imp or sylph or whatnot drops off a package and orders its delivery, she must do it. So when she's getting off her clerking night shift at the hospital and the hot, hunky vampire doc from the ER give her a parcel for delivery, she gripes but does what she needs to do. She doesn't expect to have ninjas drop out of a tree and give her the beat-down to get the item. Something is up. Any supernatural

I wasn't sure if I was going to like this one or not, but I have to say- I loved it! The "author's voice" pulled me right in and had me really liking Melina by page 2! Her sarcasm and wit had me laughing out loud in so many places I actually started getting "shushed" by my family.The characters were definitely different- quite refreshing after reading about the same old vampires in every novel out there lately. I will definitely read book 2 in this series when it comes out- I'm glad the story is

*SPOILER ALERT*I'm truly shocked to see this book getting such great reviews on Goodreads.I decided to pick up this book because I'd read another book by Rendahl that I enjoyed and because I enjoy a good vampire/zombie/werewolf book as much as the next person. I have never read a paranormal romance before (unless you count the Sookie Stackhouse books, which I guess kind of are). Perhaps this is why I don't get the love for this book.I found the juvenile "voice" of the lead character very

This book is not what I expected. I expected more of a romance novel, instead I got an action/adventure with lots of paranormal.The main character is a little clueless, but I think it works well for her and for the story. She didn't want to acknowledge the "others" and live a normal life so I think the clueless part was her character.I love how all her friends come together at the end, both the "danes" and the "canes". The only concern is Norah. Is she really going to be ok after learning about

I really enjoyed this book. The characters were engaging and held my interest throughout the book. I am curious ad to why her new love interest always smelled like baked goods to her. I was expecting to find out that he was some type of paranormal being. It was good to finally read a book with a setting in the Bay Area. I don't think I have ever read a book with the characters living in Sacramento. It had always been the usual places like Los Angeles or New York. It is refreshing reading novels

Well, I really enjoyed it but it didn't start out that way. Rendahl has the main character use a lot of colloquial dialogue with the reader and it sometimes becomes repetitive. Also, I found a lot of the in-between thoughts/feelings between the action and dialogue to be rather boring and I skimmed a lot of it, not even on purpose, because it didn't catch my attention. I really like the story, it's a unique take on the magical/supernatural world, but I wanted the main character to have more
