It was a good read, I don't regret it. But I feel like the long wait made the fact that it was not on par with Venemous, caused me to not enjoy it as much as I might have. When one gets so invested in a series and in the characters, the author really has a tall order to fill in terms of fan expectations. I am very happy Lumen and the guys were involved in the story. I was bummed at the fact that Venemous ended before a momentous occasion, but thankfully it happens here in Thunderclaw. I am very annoyed that Lumen magically gets an eye color change though. Her eyes are BLUE! Not freaking HAZEL! WTH?! The first book makes a big deal of this feature Lumen possesses. Venom is enamored of the color, it reminds him of a precious stone even. So how the heck does Ms. Fletcher forget such an important detail pray tell? Sorry, it may seem like a nit pick, but I am one of those who got really invested in the characters, and to have such a intrinsic detail messed up by the very one who created it, kinda chaps my booty. But I digress, if I read Thunderclaw again, it will only be to prepare for the third book. I say again, because I have read Venemous probably four or five times by now, I enjoyed it that much. Here's hoping the third book pulls the series back together eh?Product details

ThunderClaw Alien Warrior Book 2 edition by Penelope Fletcher Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I waver between "I hate it" and "I don't like it". I loved Venomous, but the next book in the series was lacking. I would have stopped reading this book halfway through, but I paid for it. I imagine that some people will enjoy this book, but I did not.
My main complaint is that character actions did not make any sense. *SPOILERS* When Thunderclaw shows up the female character naturally freaks out and flees. When he shows up again she again freaks out and flees. It all seems logical so far. Then he captures her and within a chapter convinces her to be his wife and leave earth. Her family not only supports this decision, but encourages it. WHAT?! He is a lion looking alien and the female character decides to marry him in the same night of meeting him. I felt like this just didn't make sense and isn't what a sane person would do.
Another complaint is that I disliked the female character. *SPOILERS* for example, she put the lives of hundreds of people at risk so that she could save her husband. I think it's great that she loved him and wanted to save him, but not at the risk of hundreds of lives. Other people tell her that that's not what he would want and she doesn't care. Other people explain to her that everyone could die and she doesn't care. She is supposed to be a queen, and her actions were not befitting a queen.
I would have given this book five stars but for several issues.
*It really needed more editing. There were passages where I was flat out confused as to what was happening and who was saying what, and who was who. There were far too many new characters introduced too quickly and it was hard to keep up. It took me half the book to figure out which cousin had the nickname "Trick", for example, because half the book he was called by his actual name.
*Then, the author threw in almost All the characters from the previous book on top of a whole cast of new characters. They could have come in much later and it would have been a more streamlined story.
*The main female protagonist, Sinad, gave in way too easily to leaving Earth and accepting aliens. Her responses didn't ring true for me.
*I really, really don't need political commentary in my smut. I had an issue with this in the first book when the author starts going on about how Western Civilization isn't "civilized". How she came to that conclusion when she was just rescued from a slave mine where males threatened to rape and then EAT their victims, I have no idea. We might not be perfect but last I checked, most males don't engage in gladiator-style death matches over women then rape and eat them. Did the main character learn nothing from what she'd seen? Travel is supposed to Expand the mind. Then, in this book, we get a diatribe from the same character about how she's "free" now and how horrible it was on Earth. I get it. There are social injustices. However, some pages later there's a massive, Sanctioned Slave auction of "lesser" species that is legal on hundreds of worlds, and since said character was living on a planet that didn't allow outsiders At All (no immigration)...one would think the author would have a greater appreciation for the freedoms and equality of Earth. But she doesn't. Western civilization is Horrible, disgusting and uncivilized and she'd never want to live anywhere else except a galaxy....where she's threatened by horrible, murderous species who engage in slavery, rape, eating people, there's a huge Trump wall around the planet the character claims is so much better and....I was flabbergasted I had to listen to a lecture from the character on how Bad Western Civilization is while she's hypocritically living in a Far FAR more uncivilized area of the universe. In a novel that's supposed to be about smut and romance. If you want to write a book on social injustice, do it, but don't do it in my smut. The two should never meet.
*At the end of the book, there's an excerpt for the next book which involves a new species that enslaves women from birth, buys them, rapes them until they conceive and then kills them the moment the child is born. Apparently, this new species will be the subject of the next book and the "hero" of the book Their Leader. No Thanks. The hypocrisy of the author is just too much now. You can't, on the one hand, preach to me about social justice and how bad Western Civilization is, then turn around and make me believe a male who promoted such a culture, was their Leader, enforced those laws....is suddenly redeemable. There is no redemption for such acts. If she'd used the other character in this book, how he'd come to actually see women as sentient beings due to meeting the two females from Earth in THIS book...it might have played. But their Supreme Leader doesn't get to have that sympathy and isn't redeemable and it's disgusting to use such a character and insane to think he could ever be a likable protagonist.
Other than these issues, I was enjoying the story and I did enjoy a lot of the characters, such as Eirik and Beowyn....the kid was actually cute and not annoying, and a few times I laughed. So three stars are all I can bear to give and be fair. I will not be purchasing the next book.
I tried very hard to like this book but I just couldn't. The hero came off as weak and the heroine as narsasistic. Poor guy comes to Earth to find his One and ends up with up with a poor excuse for a human that couldn't see past her own wants, needs, and fantasies for 5 mins for the sake of someone else. Her one redeeming quality is that she does care about her child and family. Unfortunately, that's not enough to make for a great read. Oh I do get the writer's attempt to wrap this all up into a nice three piece ménage àt what (you get what i'm saying) package, but it just comes off as forced. Painfully so.
The third wheel, the Commander, becomes first wheel, and Thunderclaw's spark just fizzles. Add one selfish subhuman and the whole thing becomes a hot mess. The writer tried to fix it, but the damage was done. She would have had to rewrite the whole book. So there is a lot of excuses as to why the little human is so broken.
There were a lot of spelling and grammatical errors. So much so that it makes for a jerky read. But like you, I waited two years for this book. No way am I telling you to skip this one. Just hold on for the ride. And hope the next book makes up for this one.
It was a good read, I don't regret it. But I feel like the long wait made the fact that it was not on par with Venemous, caused me to not enjoy it as much as I might have. When one gets so invested in a series and in the characters, the author really has a tall order to fill in terms of fan expectations. I am very happy Lumen and the guys were involved in the story. I was bummed at the fact that Venemous ended before a momentous occasion, but thankfully it happens here in Thunderclaw. I am very annoyed that Lumen magically gets an eye color change though. Her eyes are BLUE! Not freaking HAZEL! WTH?! The first book makes a big deal of this feature Lumen possesses. Venom is enamored of the color, it reminds him of a precious stone even. So how the heck does Ms. Fletcher forget such an important detail pray tell? Sorry, it may seem like a nit pick, but I am one of those who got really invested in the characters, and to have such a intrinsic detail messed up by the very one who created it, kinda chaps my booty.
