After a seven year wait Pandora English returns to our book shelves
in The Cobra Queen. The fourth book in the Pandora English
series by bestselling author Tara Moss.
I'm a big fan of Tara Moss', Makedde Vanderwall crime series
so when I got the chance to read The Cobra Queen I jumped to
it not knowing it is a supernatural series. I still enjoyed it and
am looking forward to reading the first three books in the series. The
Cobra Queen did remind me of the Twilight series. There was
love, family, ghosts, vampires and crossing species boundaries.
I loved reading about the history, myths and legends of Ancient
Egypt especially about the female pharaoh Hatshepsut. It brought
back lots of memories of when I studied Ancient Egypt. Pandora is
still grieving the loss of her parents and discovers more about what
happen to them in Egypt.
Pandora was an interesting character who was discovering her powers
living in a normal world. She finds out that she is the Seventh and
discovers what that means with evil around the corner trying to
invade New York. It all starts with an Ancient Egypt exhibition
Pandora is involved in at The Met.
While this is happening there is a Blue Moon approaching and Pandora
also manages to find love and build her relationships with her
spirit guide from the Civil War, Lieutenant Luke and Deus the
Sanguine and a few other characters.
If you like reading supernatural romances where powerful forces
threaten to up end the balance of life and death, then you need to
try The Cobra Queen.
