No, I saw that and was very impressed. Book 5 might not impact people the same way it hit me. Lily was a unique character in dark circumstances. The circumstances are different for this character but it hits Mira just as hard.

Will Mira get any closure or any kind of break? Any Human contact. I mean she going to go crazier than a two headed Woodpecker in a petrified forest on crack at this Rate.It's like the only tow humans in her life besides her body guards are Gone. One becoming a werewolf the other dead. There no out side contact to the real world.One other human friend she had died at her hand as a host/victim. Mira got feel like she radioactive and has the Grim Reaper as a Chaperone. With out some human contact will Mira start to become less "Human" and will she not star pulling away from real/human people? Come to think on it dose she have any real Human contacts left in her life? Will she get any replacements? One thing that impressed Danaus about Nightwalkers and Mira was that they had Humans in there lives that wear real people to them and they wear real to ,And he the human champion had no human Friends None. Danaus never said it but I think it was clear he was more than a little upset that the Monsters had more Human friends in there lives than he did. And to some humans He was the EVIL Monster killing their lovers and friends. I mean other Supernaturals and bodyguards just do not cut it, will Mira (not to sound cold) get some replacement Humans? I thought that's what Lily was for now I just Wonder if Mira will go Crazy and inhuman as the other Coven Members and elders. Her humanity was mixed with her inhumanity in her life with the supernatural world and None Supernatural world as she protected both in her city, and made both Danaus and us believers in her humanity and made Mira likable to us and Danaus. but that Human aspects of her life seem to be going the way of the hula hoop and Bell bottoms and the Pet Rock.

I'm sorry to say that Mira doesn't get much of a break over the next two books. However, I am pleased to say that one character does finally step up and become her lighthouse in the storm; her rock to lean on.
But your assessment is correct. If Mira doesn't regain some humans in her life, she will lose those few shreds of humanity that she has left. Unfortunately, her life is so volatile and dangerous at the moment that I don't think many humans would last too long.

I read Vicki Petterssen's books and I remember telling her and people on facebook that I trusted her after a HUGE event at the end of book four. When we love authors & their writing, we have to trust that they see the BIG picture of their series & the characters where we don't. I feel the same way about Jocelynn:) Just saying...

I trust Jocelynn, I trust her to surprise and entertain us. But I am starting to wonder if Mira is Jocelynn's Anakin Skywalker, She got the makings of a truly powerful and believable Villain. You Know the Best intentions Leading to the Dark Side and world domination. Villain and hero Only Humanity really separates them.

WOW!after meeting Lily and with her attitude towards Danaus and Mira was like mommy and daddy!and the 3 of them could be like one-big-happy-family of sort!i bet Lily dying would crush Mira so much..after images of her dead daughter showing up, then Lily comes in, giving her a chance of like having her daughter back.. after these events i think Mira would really need someone to lean on, someone to hold her steady..

I know Right. If I was Mira I would of started to believing in God or fate, and then it turns out to be An Vindictive Vampire hating God that Danaus believed in that wanted to make my life Hell on Earth. Offered hope then get a fist in the teeth from fate. Does it get worse than losing a child? And Jocelynn said yes it will! Mira's screwed. Mira might well start practicing her crazy laugh. Seriously I Think it would Break anyone who was the least bit Human, who was worth a damn and leave one heck of a Big AZZ gaping wound.

Wow. You guys make me sound so evil when it comes to all the things I've done to Mira. But then, would you be half as interested if I went soft on her? Mwahahahaha....

I would love Mira to have her happily ever after. Someone to hold on to.. someone who loves her and protects her. It frustrates me that Mira doesn't get any and she keeps fighting and fighting and fighting. It's sad that the time Mira had with Lily was cut short by that evil man.

That what I kind of mean. With no ups she really getting little predictable not to mention it loses a lot edge. Kind like the old soap operas. Wear some one fall into a coma so we know there going to lose there memory. Or the Jason movies the Girl's half dressed so she going to die next ,,,,No wait theres a Black Guy in a Red sweater he's the Next Jason hack and slash.
Mira's got a Human friend or adopted daughter some happiness there dead or betraying her Next or turning into a werewolf.
Starting to have that feel.

I was disappointed when Lily died to say the least she was an interesting character with great potential, I'd rather Tristan died, are we sure she's dead? no one checked and everyone else has great healing powers
