A Mass Market Paperback Original

The New York Times bestselling author of Blood Brothers continues the thrilling trilogy of a town plagued by evil?and the three men and three women brought together by fate to fight it.

The Hollow by Nora Roberts

Another winner by one of my favorite authors! A real page turner! I was only disappointed when I came to the last page .... I wanted more and am eagerly awaiting book number three!

Better than the first, but still not her best

I was hesitant to buy this book given that the first one of the series didn't really do anything for me, but I was on vacation and needed something to read at the last minute so I broke down and got it. I will say that it was definitely more interesting than the first book of this series, which I feel dragged on a little bit and got bogged down with setting the stage for the trilogy.

I was glad that the focus was almost entirely on Fox and Layla in this book but was at the same time frustrated that we learned almost nothing new about Layla at all! It's like Ms. Roberts got so busy developing the pasts of the male characters of the series that she forgot to give us any information about the female ones. Who is this woman anyway? All I know about her is that she used to manage a clothing store in NYC and can't deal with her emotions unless she compartmentalizes them, which she herself says, by the way. How can an author go through an entire 300+ page novel without giving any background story on one of the main characters?

Other than that it was a better read than Blood Brothers but not up to her usual standard of excellence in my opinion. There were some laugh out loud moments for me, which is something I always love about Nora's dialogue and was glad to see present here. The action was a little creepier in this book too, which I think made it more interesting as well. I'll look forward to reading the Pagan Stone because now I do actually care about what happens to these people, something that I didn't really feel after the first book, but I'll probably forget all the stuff that happened between now and then because it doesn't even come out until December. WTH?

Normal middle book

I enjoyed this book and i like the story,but its pretty normal as in any trilogy fills space and continues the second rommance.

Hollow Happenings

Intriguing sequel to "Blood Brothers" and an enjoyable journey toward the demolishing of the demon spell brought on as far back as the 1600's in the town of Hawkins Hollow, MD! Cal and Quinn are a romantic duo now and this part of the trilogy, while highlighting the supernatural talents of all six main characters, (Cal, Quinn, Fox, Layla, Gage and Cybil), focuses on the budding romance of town lawyer, Fox O'Dell and Layla, the New York shopkeeper, drawn to the doomed town by her mysterious and very real dreams/nightmares. The story is sci-fi, Nora style, and a completely enjoyable experience. I am really looking forward to the big finale set to be released in December 2008 - "The Pagan Stone." This story will be the culmination of the planning and workings of the group in their effort to end the evil destruction of the "seven-year curse" once and for all.
