Royal House of Shadows

I just received the first 3 books in the "Royal House of Shadows" series!  I'll probably read them this weekend and let you know what I think.  The previous post will tell you a little about the first book in the series "Lord of the Vampires."  I was of course drawn to the series since Gena Showalter, my favorite author, wrote the first book.  However, I'm looking forward to the whole series and checking out some authors that I'm not familiar with.
