It features in the Weather Warden, Kitty Norville and the Signs of the Zodiac for one. I think its rarer if its portray the rape mid series ala Mercy. But I agree smoking its interesting to see how this trope evolves - because with some books I dont think it deals with it in a good way. <br />But I cant wait until I get this book still havent bought it yet- waiting for the UK edition :D I think rape scenes in UF has always been a predominant trope.

I've noticed the rape trend for UF and PNR books this year? Not that I mind if it enriches the story, but interesting how I keep reading more bks with rape scenes. <br /><br />Great Review!
