I was first introduced to some of the characters in Brian Rella's "Queen of the Fallen" in his Monsters & Demons collection of short stories. I immediately fell in love with the world he created and I continued with the Second Death series when he brought out the first volume, "Watchers of the Fallen." I'm so glad I was introduced to this author and his work, because with "Queen of the Fallen," he just gets better and better and has become one of my favorite authors. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is about this book and series that is so appealing, but whatever it is, the combination of fantasy, horror, suspense and drama combine to make one fascinating and involving story that I hope continues for a long time to come.
