Fangs & Fairy Dust: A Vampire & Fae Paranormal Urban Fantasy Romance Novella (Angels of Sojourn) Kindle Edition

by Joynell Schultz (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 105 ratings
When the shifters went public, the government hunted them to almost extinction.
The vampires are smarter. They’ll stay hidden, even if Ryker has to hunt down a rogue vampire all by himself.

There has been eleven murders, all connected by severe loss of blood. Each of the victims is dead, except for a stunning young woman named Aliza.

Ryker’s trip to Dubuque should be quick and painless—swiftly laying down vampire law before the humans get suspicious. When Aliza reminds him of what it’s like to be human and the love he lost right here in this city eighty years ago, he finds himself having feelings he had locked tightly away. Feelings that have haunted him for nearly a century.

As fast as he can, Ryker must find the rogue and get out of Dubuque before he’s forced to face the past…but as Aliza begins to show signs of something dark inside her, Ryker has to make a decision. Should he protect his soul…or save hers?

You won’t want to miss this short vampire and fae romance, because who doesn’t love a story with tortured characters who find their happy ending.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A spin in the supernatural.
    Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2018

    There's a serial killer loose in Dubuque. Not just any killer, but a supernatural killer that is running rampant. The Blood Board has sent one of their very best, Ryker to handle the situation. After 300 years, he has learned to be all business and get the job done.

    He was looking for the latest victim and that is how he meets Aliza. She is unlike anyone he has ever met. He just can't place what it is that makes her different. All he knows is that he is drawn to her. What better way to get to the killer than to stick by the one person that he knows they will come back too?

    Ryker and Aliza have so much to learn. Their new alliance will not come easy and they have a long journey ahead.

    Joynell Schultz has taken the supernatural and added her own touch to it. I can see this series in my tbr pile in the very near future. There were a few editing issues I caught, but the writing exceeded my expectations.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Captivating and delightful...
    Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2020
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This novella has so much to offer in less than a hundred pages. I was totally enthralled by this story from the very start right through to the ending (in fact, I really did not want it to end). I found that it had many positive attributes:
    • Impressive world-building for such a brief book – I felt I had a real sense of the paranormal politics propelling the plotline forward.
    • Wonderful characters that were relatable, fallible, and very human (even if they weren’t actually human). I would love to read further adventures for them.
    • An intriguing mystery to solve – just who is the serial killer stalking Dubuque? What is driving them to commit murder? Is it random or is there a strategy involved?
    • Plenty of action to hold the readers interest.
    • Paranormal fantasy fans will appreciate the variety of supernatural beings involved in the story.
    • A satisfying and complete story with a touch of romance and no cliffhanger ending but plenty of possibilities for future stories.
    • No graphic violence, no offensive language, no explicit sex
    For me, there was no downside. More please.

    Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2018

    Fangs & Fairy Dust by Joynell Schultz is described by the author as “An Angels of Sojourn Spin-Off Novella.” This was a good chance to explore a writer style in a genre outside my usual preference. Unfortunately, this was a politically correct, social justice, simplistic tale disguised with fairies, vampires, and an omniscient, controlling body dedicated to stamping out evil when it first appeared so that evil could not develop to its full, powerful self. This tale will not motivate me to read more about Angels on sojourns.

    Ryker is a 300-year-old vampire with guilt feelings. Over the course of his being, he has killed two human wives and one vampire wife. Now working for the Blood Board, he is charged with killing deviant vampires, those who kill their prey while feeding improperly other than doing the right thing, drinking just enough blood to survive. While on assignment, Ryker meets Aliza. Ryker didn’t intend to meet Aliza in the hospital; he was following a trail that indicated he might find his vampire prey. Instead, he found Aliza in a hospital in an extremely weakened state. She was going through a change, one which would require further visits by the vampire Ryker was tracking. Or so he thought.

    Ryker got it wrong. The vampire he was hunting didn’t kill females. But something or someone was trying to hurt Aliza. Readers will find out the difference between fairies and vampires. Readers will learn the correct etiquette for taking blood snacks. Ryker, with guilt feelings over previous kills, does not want to fall for Aliza but this is the apparent romantic interest in the story.

    The questions are: Will a Ryker and Aliza romance survive? Will Aliza complete the change to be a vampire? If so, will Ryker kill her as he did with three former companions? This might have been a good story if it had been better disguised. It should have stayed in the paranormal sphere and not tried to teach humans moral lessons.

    The first point that turned me off was “Perhaps the bartender would be the easiest meal, but he tried to not victimize women. His kind did too much of that already.” (Kindle Locations 189-190). Neither of the sentences contained the word “patriarchal.” I was impressed. The thought that the vampire world is more enlightened than the present-day human world might make many people yearn for a world that (literally) sucks.

    The second turn off point appeared in an almost-dialogue between Ryker and Aliza. Ryker: “See, I’m a vampire. I’m evil to the core. Humans are my food, and I’m the predator. But I choose to overcome that. I chose a different path, despite my nature.” Aliza nods. Again, with Ryker: “It took me two hundred years to walk a different way, but if you want to overcome your monster like I overcame mine, I’ll be with you if you want.” (Kindle Locations 1746-1749).

    In a time long, long, ago in a universe where the language was Valley Speak, the response here would be “Gag me with a spoon.” I won’t read more by this author without downloading a free Amazon sample to make sure all Schultz novels are not written in this way. I gave this story two Amazon stars.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A lovely short story
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 13, 2018

    A lovely short story about a vampire who doesn't want to love again and a girl who doesn't want to be alone anymore. A bit of murder mistery and romance mixed in, sprinkled with fairy dust and we have a delicious little story to devour.
    This is my second Angels of Sojourn spin-off novella I have read and I think I have to get the real thing now. The stories have a good flow, I like the characters and hopefully in a full length novel there is a bit more time for development.
