Product Description:
Seventh in the hilarious New York Times bestselling series featuring Vampire Queen Betsy Taylor—now with a hot new look.

The series New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan calls “DELIGH TFUL, Wicked Fun” is looking hotter than ever…

“No one does humorous romantic fantasy better than the incomparable MaryJanice Davidson” (The Best Reviews), and nobody reigns over the undead with more savvy than her heroine Betsy Taylor, back to rule the nights as Vampire Queen––and survive the days as a new suburban bride. But it’s not all marital bliss. Betsy’s husband, Sinclair, has been perusing The Book of the Dead, Betsy’s being hounded by a ghost who’s even more insufferable in death than in life, and a pack of formerly feral vampires has decided to pay an unwelcome visit…

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Well, I still enjoy the series, anyway.
MaryJanice Davidson, Undead and Unworthy (Berkley, 2008)

The seventh book in Davidson's Queen Betsy series is an obvious attempt at a makeover-- just look at the cover, which is far less the chick-lit pastels of the earlier books and far more the cool, competent thriller-heroine. Berkley seems to have said "with the old plotline over, it's time to move MaryJanice Davidson away from the world of chick lit and into the world of the 'women's mystery novel'." I mean, really, that cover begs, ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Another Great Queen Betsy Novel
MJD is one of my very favorite authors--her books made me enjoy reading after the ordeal of earning a PhD made me forget why I loved novels in the first place. So thanks, MJD! And please hire yourself a proofreader! Good grief, the typos and gaffes get worse with each novel! They are becoming distracting. Betsy seems to cross over into doormat territory with her efforts to appease Nick, her best friend's cop boyfriend with a bad bad grudge. Nevertheless Betsy is embracing her responsibility as Vampire ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Yep, Unworthy, Alright
Let's face it when we read about Betsy Taylor Queen of the Dead we want a quirky, perky, funny story like we've previously been delivered and come to depend on. The quality of the story camouflaged the horrendous sticker shock of such short books!

This time we get some cover that looks like the artist never read the book and a short story that never fully delivers. I mean, it was O.K. But we don't want O.K. from our favorite authors. We want magic. And it annoyed me that I missed one anthology ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - HATE THE NEW COVER ART!
I love Queen Betsy, but I haven't even purchased this in hardcover because the cover is so dreadful. It looks like Babysitters Club gone Goth. What were they thinking. I have bought all the hardcovers up to now. Also, it doesn't match the rest of the series. That may be weird, but I'm a librarian and I want my sets to match! Pleeeaaase go back to the old art!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not my favorite in this series
I have enjoyed the Queen Betsy series but have mixed feelings about this book.

To start with, I really hate the new cover art.If the first books in the series had this art, I don't think I would have picked them up.I don't care for the more serious vampire novels -- I only read the light and humorous ones.

I'm somewhat troubled by the author's note that the new cover art signals a new direction the series is going.This cover is darker and this book was darker and not as funny ... Read More
