With this scarab and the words Kaji Dha he was endowed with superhuman strength, the ability to fly, and he could shoot lightning from his hands as the BLUE BEETLE.

Dan Garrett studied archaeology in Egypt, when he found a magical scarab in the tomb of Kha-ef-Re. With this scarab and the words ÒKaji DhaÓ he was endowed with superhuman strength, the ability to fly, and he could shoot lightning from his hands as the BLUE BEETLE. Dan Garrett, the original BLUE BEETLE, eventually died in a battle with Ted Kord's Uncle Jarvis, but passed along the legacy of BLUE BEETLE to Kord. Although he did not possess the scarab, Ted trained and used his great intelligence to take over as THE BLUE BEETLE, the second exciting incarnation of this character.
BLUE BEETLE was initially published by Victor Fox's outfit. The title was then transferred to Holyoke Publishing and eventually wound up back at Fox. After Fox closed shop, the BLUE BEETLE landed at Charlton Comics.
Charlton Comics' first issue of the BLUE BEETLE started with #18, picking up the numbering from the recently canceled title THE THING. Issues #18 and 19, abetted with new covers, only contained reprints from the Fox series. Issues #20 and #21 contained brand new stories, although #21, published in August of 1955, was to be the last issue. Charlton's next BLUE BEETLE series began with issue #1 in June of 1964 and lasted five issues, ending in April 1965. In July of 1965 Dan Garrett as the BLUE BEETLE returned for five more issues, this time beginning with issue #50, picking up the numbering sequence from the defunct UNUSUAL TALES series. Although this was the end of Dan Garrett's time as the BLUE BEETLE,
Charlton would soon pull another bug out of their hat.
In November of 1966, Steve Ditko dusted off the BLUE BEETLE name, now with Ted Kord donning the mask and updated the character for a more modern audience. Ted Kord would appear in Charlton's Captain Atom #83-86 before going on to his own self-titled, five issue series also published by Charlton. THE BLUE BEETLE remains one of the most enduring characters in comics, changing and evolving over the decades.
As an added bonus this volume also contains five tales starring another creation by Steve Ditko, THE QUESTION.
This book was compiled with the best images currently available. That stated, these comics are sixty to seventy years old. The best efforts have been made to make the pages as enjoyable as possible but not every panel is perfect and some allowances for the age of the books need to be considered when judging the overall contents.

Collette was not voiceless in the least and to say she is by far my fave FMC of all time right now it's no understatement. Best 1st read of the year ever!! I love how possessive each of her men were and OMG Lena is the best BFF and girl could ask for! I'm pretty sure I need this gorgeous book on my shelf pronto!

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.
