Archaeologist Zoe Miller has been running from a haunting secret her whole life. But when her cousin is abducted by a vicious Russian kidnapper, Zoe is left with only one option: to reveal herself.
Unknown to even her closest friends, Zoe is not entirely human. She’s a werewolf and a daughter of the “Fangborn,” a secretive race of werewolves, vampires, and oracles embroiled in an ancient war against evil.
To rescue her cousin, Zoe will be forced to renew family ties and pit her own supernatural abilities against the dark and nefarious foe. The hunt brings Zoe to the edge of her limits, and with the fate of humanity and the Fangborn in the balance, life will be decided by an artifact of world-ending power.
Zoe’s mission takes her and her friends across the globe on a frenetic quest for no less than Pandora’s Box.

Good. Entertaining, and reasonably well written.
By Jesse Walker
I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Hadn't heard of this author before getting a chance to read this book, and the werewolf genre tends to be more my wife's thing than mine. But I finished the book in two days (and it's not exactly a quick read, it's a decent-length book). It was a good story. The book was entertaining. I suppose it could have been a bit more polished: Cameron is a new author, and while not bad, the book doesn't flow as easily as some similar fantasy/sci-fi works I've read. I'm guessing that'll improve with additional books. I certainly couldn't do any better.
As a scientist (a biologist, in my case), I liked the small but important bits of academe that got incorporated into the text (the Sus scrofa reference made me smile). As expected, it was a little heavy on mythology, which I found interesting. A little dose of reality helps ground fiction to the real world.
The book started a little slow, but it definitely had its exciting moments.
Anyway... it was worth my time, will probably be worth yours, and I expect we'll be seeing more of Zoe Miller and the Fangborn in the future. I'm looking forward to it.

Werewolf Zoe and the Search for the Lost Thingamajig
By ML
WHAT IS IT?
"Seven Kinds of Hell" is the first novel in Dana Cameron's planned "Fangborn" fantasy series. The Fangborn are supernatural creatures that come in three varieties: werewolves, vampires, and oracles. Magically compelled to fight Evil, the Fangborn have guarded humanity throughout the ages. Twenty-something werewolf Zoe Miller knows little about her heritage because her mother has, for her own reasons, always kept Zoe hidden from the Fangborn. With Zoe's mother dying, however, the Fangborn -- and others who know about the Fangborn -- begin closing in on Zoe. Some want to help her, but most want to use her. The immediate threat is Dmitri, a Russian gangster who kidnaps Zoe's cousin and demands that she acquire an artifact from an insane collector in exchange for her cousin's life. The quest to free her cousin leads Zoe to London and then to Venice, the Greek Islands, and beyond. She is hunted at every step, not knowing whether she can trust anyone, even her ex-boyfriend Will. Moreover, what begins as a mission to get hold of an insignificant figurine soon turns into a search for one of the most feared objects in Greek mythology: Pandora's Box.
WHY MIGHT YOU WANT TO READ IT?
My original working title for this review was "Junk Food for the Werewolf-Lover's Soul." Sometimes we crave junk food, and junk food is often better than nothing. I'm not going to praise the book, but I will say that the story moves quickly, there's plenty of action, and the idea of the Fangborn is one of the most oddball takes on werewolves and vampires that you're likely to come across. Fangborn vampires, for example, are *good* by nature, they *thrive* on sunshine, and when they manifest their vampire selves, they shapeshift into *snake* form. Furthermore, they're not undead, they're not immortal, they *heal* people rather than feeding on them, and their main thing is controlling people via their venom and some sort of psychic force. (In other words, her vampires have almost nothing in common with "our" vampires.) If archaeology appeals to you, Zoe has an undergrad degree in the discipline and her knowledge becomes quite important when the good (and bad) guys begin rummaging around in ancient Greek ruins. If Romance appeals to you, that's here too: Zoe broke up with brilliant and hunky Will years ago because she didn't have control over her werewolf self and was afraid that she might hurt him. Her knees go weak when she runs into him today, but does he still want her? Hint: this is a "kissing book."
WHY MIGHT YOU WANT TO SKIP IT?
The number one reason to skip this book is that it's a mess; a frustrating, confusing, difficult-to-follow mess. You expect more questions than answers in the first half of a novel like this one, but you also expect things to resolve over time. To be fair, some questions do get answered, but this book is packed with too many characters, too many agendas, too many locations, and too many objects for the mere human mind to track. For example, I'm still confused about who works for the Senator (one of the bosses out to control Zoe); who works for the TRG (an agency within the FBI, I think, that keeps tabs on the Fangborn -- think "HRG" :); what organization Gerry and Claudia represent, if any; who Adam and the guy with the shiny head work for; and whether any of them have anything to do with Zoe's father's family. If you can't tell what's going on -- and, worse, if you cease to care what's going on -- that takes a big bite out of your reading pleasure.
The book has a wide range of additional weaknesses, but if the first one doesn't bother you, the rest probably won't either. Still, here's a sampling: First, everybody makes inexplicable choices. For example, Dmitri wants figurines, but he doesn't ask Zoe to give him the one she has before she jets off to London. Second, much of the plot depends on the same sort of "hidden clue points to secret location of mysterious object" nonsense that you see in "The Da Vinci Code" and ABC's recent "Zero Hour." Third, there's just too much boilerplate cliche about fighting the Beast within, etc.
AND SO?
"Seven Kinds of Hell" is B-movie material at best. I don't regret having read it, but I don't expect to be buying any future books in the series either. Count this as a weakly negative recommendation.

Messy!
By OutlawPoet
Oh my, this was a messy muddle of a book! I really wanted to love it. I enjoy urban fantasy and I absolutely love archaeological adventures - even with a paranormal angle. But this was a mess.
In reality, it seemed like a couple of books mashed together.
First - the archaeological book. It sort of reminded me of those old Elizabeth Peters books - not Amelia Peabody - more like Vicky Bliss. There's a search for the literal Pandora's Box. There's a round the world chase following clues and finding archaeological treasures with people trying to stop our heroine - or kill her.
Then - the Urban Fantasy. Um...just having werewolves and vampires (non-traditional) does not an urban fantasy make. Instead of a butt-kicking heroine, we get Zoe who runs away from problems and has the personality of a doorpost. As for the sexy hero - he's not that sexy. In fact, I liked the easily influenced milquetoast best friend better than Zoe's love interest with their passionless passion. And instead of an urban fantasy world that seems like it actually went through a world building process, we get the usual - some paranormals want to come out to the humans. Others don't. One evil human wants to be a paranormal. If you've read any urban fantasy, you've read it before and better.
The relationships were messy. I didn't know who was working for whom or why. And some of the best characters were the minor ones like Danny.
I confess, it was a struggle for me to finish this book. It was the archaeology that got me through.
Unfortunately, I don't think I'll continue with this series.
