Shapeshifters

Well, I first saw this book as a MASSIVE book, 900 pages long. Then I found one of the individual books at a different library, and I thought "That sounds interesting" so I borrowed the omnibus.
   I read the first few books and thought that they were good, but when I got to Wyrvenhail, I noticed it had a significant difference. It took me ages, until I realised that this was the only one where the main character isn't in love. I mean, in the first two, Hawksong and Snakecharm, Danica and Zane are in love, and in Falcondance Nicas wants to help Hai and Oliza. I'm not going to spoil Wolfcry by telling you who falls in love, but it was my favourite book in the series. Wyrvenhail seemed interesting at first because Hai is an interesting character, but the whole story seemed sad, until the end, like the Harry Potter books. I think this series is a must read for fantasy readers, and I wanted to read The Den of Shadows series, but I can't find it. I'm also reading Persistence of Memory and Token of Darkness.
