I actually picked up book 2 first but decided to go all the way back to the beginning to start reading, so I downloaded this; I think it ended up being a key piece of the series.
Reading the books that are available in this series so far (My Soul to Take (Soul Screamers Book 1), My Soul to Save (Soul Screamers Book 2)), the quality increases with each book, the storylines becoming more complex and the main characters develop significantly. My Soul To Lose, being both the introduction and the shortest, focuses mostly on a single event and a small group of characters. While it would be a moderately good urban fantasy on its own, if readers only knew it would be part of a planned series, this novella ended with enough teasers that as a fan of this genre, I'd want to pick up the next book.
Vincent has a nice writing style and this was a pretty intense story from the beginning. I immediately liked Kaylee and disliked her family, so the author did a great job there. The fantasy elements were very well done without being cheesy and it was refreshing to read a paranormal/urban fantasy that was a little off the beaten path.
My Soul to Keep (Soul Screamers, Book 3) will be available in June 2010Get more detail about My Soul to Lose.
