Broken

by Kelley Armstrong

Random House Publishing Group | April 25, 2006 | Mass Market Paperbound

In this thrilling new novel from the author of Industrial Magic, a pregnant werewolf may have unwittingly unleashed Jack the Ripper on twenty-first-century-and become his next target.

Ever since she discovered she's pregnant, Elena Michaels has been on edge. After all, she's never heard of another living female werewolf, let alone one who's given birth. But thankfully, her expertise is needed to retrieve a stolen letter allegedly written by Jack the Ripper. As a distraction, the job seems simple enough-only the letter contains a portal to Victorian London's underworld, which Elena inadvertently triggers-unleashing a vicious killer and a pair of zombie thugs.

Now Elena must find a way to seal the portal before the unwelcome visitors get what they're looking for-which, for some unknown reason, is Elena.

Otherworld Women Rock!

Really interesting storyline! Only problem I had was getting characters and back stories mixed up a little. Mostly my fault as my concentration wasn't fully into my reading but just a warning that focus may be required since there are quite a few characters involved in the plot.
As I got over half-done reading the book I realized that this wasn't just a story about a kick-butt female werewolf but all the otherworld females can hold their own. The men really take a back-seat to the women in this book and it's good to read.
I really enjoyed how Armstrong hits Toronto with a pile of supernatural events and she does a good job giving the reader a sense of how the otherworld and human characters deal with the experiences. And there's lots of supernatural activity loaded into the book (witches, sorcerers, zombies, demons, vampires, necromancers, clairvoyants - werewolves are refreshingly uncomplicated). Packed in with that are Victorian-age health crises hitting Toronto's downtown core and rampaging infected rats. So pay attention!
Still doesn't quite rank up there with the first book of the series but a very entertaining read and a worthy succession/finale of the trilogy.
