New Release Review: Panther Prowling (Otherworld/Sisters of the Moon #17) by Yasmine Galenorn

Blurb:

We’re the D’Artigo sisters: savvy half-human, half-Fae operatives for the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. My sister Camille is a wicked-good witch with three gorgeous husbands. Menolly is a vampire married to a werepuma. And me? I’m Delilah, a two-faced werecat and a Death Maiden. While the war in Otherworld is expanding, so is my newly renamed PI business. And my next case is about to make life very interesting… 

While waiting for Shadow Wing’s next move, I decide to revamp my ragtag PI agency into the Cat’s Eye Investigations firm. My first client turns out to be our cousin Daniel. During the grand reopening for the Wayfarer, he shows up while being chased by a rampaging ghost. Daniel has procured a rare and valuable sword, and a ring of ghostly warriors comes attached to it. Protectors of the soul trapped within it, the spirits are out to stop anybody who threatens the weapon. As my sisters and I unravel the history of the sword, we quickly realize that the entity locked within the blade is a dangerous king from times gone by—and he’s about to break free and try to recover his crown…

My Review:

Daniel is being chased by a rampaging ghost who seems to be after the sword Daniel somehow procured. The D’Artigo sisters must unravel the history of the sword and stop the bloodthirsty spirit inside from breaking free in this exciting urban fantasy. I just love how the D’Artigo sisters and their extended family members continue to hold me spellbound with every story. Each and every story brings more aspects of the sisters’ destiny to light which keeps readers wondering just what fate has in store for them and Yasmine Galenorn continues to add interesting and refreshingly different elements and intriguing characters which adds lots of spice to the story.

Ever wonder if the monsters under your bed are real...?

Meet the D'Artigo Sisters--three half human, half-Fae, wild and sexy members of the OIA--the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. Camille, a witch, Delilah, a werecat, and Menolly, an acrobat extraordinaire turned vampire, are sent Earthside to keep them out of trouble by their superiors, who consider the girls nothing but a bunch of bumbling half-breeds. But the girls soon find themselves smack in the middle of Demon-Central when Shadow Wing, the leader of the Subterranean Realms, decides to attempt a coup on both Earth and Otherworld. Now, with their friends and lovers, they must use all of their collective talents to prevent the demons from taking over as the three sisters attempt to save two worlds, one monster at a time. Adult Urban Fantasy (Explicit Sex)

Delilah Maria D'Artigo

Eye Color: emerald green 
Hair: Originally, shoulder length blond shag, in Harvest Hunting, she cuts it short and spiky 
Skin Color: tanned 
Height: 6’1” 
Weight: 150 lbs. 
Body Type: tall, athletic, lean but muscled 
Age: 58 ES years; (~22 Fae years) 
Ethnic Background: Human (Spanish--Mother), Fae--Sidhe (Father) 
Birthday: June 29th, 1948 (on the waning moon) 
Abilities: Delilah is a werecat. She turns into a golden tabby on the full moon, when she desires to, and when she’s under (family) stress. She also turns into a black panther (set off by her trip to the Autumn Lord) when she’s called to action in her Death Maiden persona. 
Nicknames: Kitten 
Home: Y’Elestrial, Otherworld. 

Delilah Maria te Maria, or Delilah Maria D'Artigo, may seem like the youngest of the sisters, but she is actually the second-born. She is a werecat--only the mixed blood heritage has left her unable to always control her transformations and she turned into a golden tabby cat rather than a lion or other big cat. She can hold her own against the roughest of enemies, but if her sisters argue, she loses control and transforms into tabby. 

Delilah is athletic, lean and tall. She's 6'1" and has an athlete's body. She learned a form of Kung-Fu back in Otherworld, and knows how to fight with multiple weapons. When she first came Earthside, she carried a gun but found the iron in it hurt her a little more than she wanted to deal with. Delilah works out at the gym, but when she's home, she turns into a trash-TV watching couch potato, often roping her sister Menolly into staying up late to watch Jerry Springer with her. Her cover job over Earthside is that of a private investigator, and she makes some money at it. 

Delilah is the optimist of the group. But she’s finding it hard to hold onto that optimism as time goes on. Delilah takes after her mother in many ways—she cares more about others than her sisters, though she’s likely to be absent minded and isn’t as reliable as either Camille or Menolly. When Delilah was marked as a Death Maiden in Changeling, it created a major shakeup in her perception of herself as a more life-affirming person, than someone focused on death, and she’s still got a long ways to go in order to get used to that. 

Delilah had a twin at birth—Arial, a golden leopard werecat, which she did not even suspect until Changeling and which was proven to be true in Night Huntress. 

Delilah's Lovers: Originally, she connected with Chase Garden Johnson andZachary Lyonnesse, but in Harvest Hunting, she met Shade, who became her primary love. 

Delilah experienced sex in her cat form, but never her human form until she arrived Earthside. Curious, she started up a relationship with Chase Johnson, the human detective helping the girls, and found herself falling for him. But Zachary Lyonnesse, a werepuma and member of the Rainier Puma Pride, also holds a strong attraction for her. Unlike her sister, Camille, Delilah's not all that comfortable fielding more than one man at a time and fears she will soon have to choose which one she's going to be with.

Shade is handsome, rugged, has a craggy set of scars on one cheek and his forehead. He is connected to the Autumn Lord in a way that isn’t clear yet. He will eventually be the father of Delilah’s child—a surrogate so she can bear the heir of the A.L. 

Shade’s easy going but his dragon will assert itself when around other dragons and when territory is invaded. But he’s far, far older than Smoky. He’s caring, devoted to Delilah, and his focus is on making a life with her.

About Yasmine Galenorn

Hi, I'm New York Times, USA TODAY, and Publisher's Weekly bestselling author Yasmine Galenorn.  In April 2012, I won a Career Achievement Award in Urban Fantasy at the Romantic Times Convention.

I write two urban fantasy series, the Otherworld Series, (aka Sisters of the Moon Series), and Indigo Court Series for Berkley. I will soon be writing a spin-off series in the Otherworld altaverse called the Fly By Night Series.

In the past, I've also written a paranormal mystery series (the Chintz 'n China Series) for Berkley Prime Crime, a short-lived mystery series (the Bath & Body Series) under the name of India Ink, again for Berkley Prime Crime, and eight metaphysical nonfiction books (Llewellyn Publications and Crossing Press).

I'm represented by Meredith Bernstein of the Meredith Bernstein Literary Agency--I adore my agent and am thrilled to have her on my side.

And yes, I'm a shamanic witch and am considered an elder in the Pagan community, having been in the Craft since February 29th (yes, leap year day), 1980.  I walk an eclectic path and consider my life to be a blend of teacups and tattoos--the former in my china closet, the latter on my skin--I'm heavily inked.  While I do run a small coven, I no longer teach magical workshops nor do I accept students or offer personal magical advice. However, you can find information my coven chooses to offer on this website.  I collect teacups, teapots, Old Country Roses china (Royal Albert), antlers and skulls (of the non-human variety), daggers and crystals.  And of course, my bookshelves are overflowing with books.  I cannot walk out of a bookstore without buying at least one book.  My TBR pile is huge!

I'm a theatre major, a 1983 graduate of the Evergreen State College (Olympia WA).  I started college when I was fifteen, skipping high school.  I took extra time to finish because of money considerations and a hiatus when I was 17, to hitchhike to California where I lived with one of my sisters for a brief time.

On Beltane, 1993 (May 1st) I married Samwise and we're still very happily married. We are the parents of one senior kitty and three young cats. Three of our senior gurlz went over the Bridge a few years ago and we still miss them terribly. We reside in the Seattle WA area.

Because so many people ask, you pronounce my first name this way: Yaz-mihn (NOT Jasmine--it's a "Y", not a "J") and our last name is pronounced: Gal-eh-norn. The accent is on the first syllable. Interesting trivia: Samwise and I created our last name together after we got married. At first, he took my last name, but I decided I didn't want to be stuck with my stepfather's last name forever.  So we decided to construct a name that would be ours alone and that would mean something to us.  We created our last name out of the Elvish in LOTR. Galenorn means Green Tree in Elvish, went to court, and legalized it. And yes, Samwise is his *real* name.
