Read 2 times. Last read May 2, 2011.
Based on a recommendation from Itunes, I downloaded this TV series and loved it. I had never heard of it, but looked it up after seeing the "based on the books by Tanya Huff" note in the credits. And was both surprised and disappointed to find it wasn't on kindle.
however, I did find "The Enchantment Emporium" on kindle, and have been staring fixedly at Tanya Huff's amazon page since about the minute I finished it, waiting for either a sequel or the blood books.
Finally, my staring paid off. Which is fortunate, because my eyes were starting to water and get red.
I have done basically nothing else for like a week reading this book, and I thought it was fantastic. (disclosure: I lost power during the tornadoes in Georgia last week. I had very little else I could do anyway, until Saturday. But even after that, I let the laundry and the dishes lapse.)
Ms. Huff has a fascinating concept: A policewoman recently resigned from her job due to a vision issue, and the bastard son of Henry VIII, now a vampire. (Side note: I think the actor who played Henry was completely hot.). Toss in a former flame who's still an officer, and a twerp who wants to own the world, and you have an excellent story.
I'd love to talk more, but I'm off to read the second one now. If someone would take money to do my dishes, I pay top dollar.

Are the books like the tv series? season two left us with a cliff hanger and I'm wondering if the books will tell me what happens.
The first book is, but they get increasingly less alike the further into the series you get. And I stopped completely before I finished the fourth book (got too grossed out to go on). But the first and second books? Yeah. I recommend them, because I was a fan of the series first.
