Picked this series only because of curiosity and then i got hooked. I now have all the books in the series, and when i have more time, will most likely include a review of each book in the series.
In Death Series is a futuristic thriller set in the year 2058 - about a NY City Cop - a female protagonist named Eve Dallas and the mysterious Irish billionaire Roarke. You get to read about what the future might bring in terms of technological advancement - ability to travel off planet, autochefs, robotic servants and others. Of course, human nature being as it is, there are still killers out there, and that's where the stories in each book evolve.
Aside from the individual cases that Eve Dallas has to solve in each book, we also get to read about her evolving relationship with the mysterious Irish billionaire Roarke. So as the series progresses, Eve and Roarke's relationship progresses also. Both characters have their own idiosyncrasies that makes reading the series so enjoyable.
Our cop, Eve Dallas, have a tragic past, that she has to overcome. She is tall with short brown hair, who is often clueless when it comes to fixing herself up (read: she is terrified of Tina, a beauty consultant and one of the fun characters in the series). She does however have a sweet tooth - and reading about her eating chocolates often incited my own craving for one. But when it comes to her cases, she is a bloodhound who will not stop until she closes a case. And oh yeah, she is technologically challenged - such that she often battles with her computer.
Roarke - the mysterious irish billionaire. Past is shrouded in mystery, a technological genius and quite gorgeous. Considered a suspect in the first book of the series, and this was where he and eve crossed paths. He often lends a hand to Eve when it comes to solving her cases, which infuriates Eve and often led her to threaten Roarke that she in turn will mess with one of his board meetings.
Eve and Roarke eventually got married and reading about how they dealt with certain aspects of their past is what made Nora Roberts a great writer - you actually feel for what the characters had went through. Its really a good thing that Nora Roberts is a prolific writer, such that as readers, we dont get to wait a really long time to read the next book in the series as NR often releases one every quarter. As it is, I am eagerly anticipating the next book in the series,
Strangers in Death to hit the Philippine shores.
