Legacy, Jeanne C. Stein
to be abrupt, no one really makes much of a difference here except anna.. everyone else almost seem like they're just there to make cameo appearances. this has become a complete focus on just anna, and i'm not sure it's a good switch. the idea of avery coming back is interesting, and in the body of a woman.. but otherwise? i'm not so sure.
anna seems to be overly aggressive for no apparent reason, first of all. if her former career was a schoolteacher, i'm afraid i really don't want to know what she did when people failed or didn't do homework. i know she's supposed to be a badass now that she's a vampire, but when she keeps claiming to want to hang onto her humanity and appears that violent.. i'm not sure it works for me, personally. the mythology involved in the vamps and weres seem interesting, at the least. i guess we will end up seeing recurring characters later on, but i was really looking forward to seeing more from the rest of the cast.
the whole thing with gloria wasn't very memorable, and i've already forgotten who it was behind the death, and how exactly the mystery was solved. it didn't pique my interest much. hopefully the next installment will perk me up a bit more, but this one didn't do much for me. it was decent, but again, nothing out of the ordinary.
