I was disappointed. I felt like it was building up to something grand and then..... nothing. It wasn't total crap and some parts were certainly very sad and heart wrenching, but something was missing. Not my favorite in the series but that's OK.
If you are reading this, you are probably already a Black Dagger Brotherhood fan and are familiar with Trez and iAm. If not, start with the first book in the series, not the 13th. :)
The Shadows follows Trez and iAm as they deal with their lives on the run from the s'Hisbe. They have as much brotherly devotion to each other as the Brotherhood does and bringing them more into that fold makes total sense. We have caught glimpses of their lives during the other books, but it was nice to have it all fleshed out in this one.
As they find love amidst many obstacles and subplots, we really get to understand their characters more and root for a happy ending. J.R. Ward doesn't always give us the happy ending we expect though and it's not something you can count on in her books, so we are left in suspense until the final chapter.
I'm a big fan of all the BDB books, but some I like more than others. I have to say I found this one really engaging and it holds it's own in the Brothers Universe.
