Even though I am an old school paper and ink book reader, I did enjoy reading this digital only novella in the Transplanted Tales series. It’s very short, I think I got through the entire story in less than two hours, but I was dying to read more of Red and Grimm and this satisfied the need.
This tale begins two months after the conclusion of Red, and things seem to be going well for the law enforcement officers. There is something hanging over Nate’s head, however, and it is not the fact that there has been no trace of Dracula since he disappeared, plus, combine that with the still missing corpse of the mysterious witch. Nate committed a serious crime in the world of Reapers and he has been waiting to see what his punishment will be and wondering when exactly they will be coming for him. The stubborn Tess Little notices that Nate has not been himself lately, and even though he tries to warn her off she insists on being involved.
I loved getting more background information on Nate, he has an evil origin story and centuries of history making up who he is and how he got to where he is now. It’s incredible that he turned out to be such a decent person. Grimm Consequences is also a great bridge between Red and the next book in the series, The Better To See You, because I was able to predict who the focus of the next novel would be and it fit in really nicely in terms of the flow of the story. I will actually be posting my review of that story next week, so if you are ready for more, come back and read my thoughts on it.
