Praise for the Honey Badger Chronicles
“There are no dull pages in Breaking Badger…Laurenston immerses
readers in a world full of family, friends and shifter dynamics
that never fail to amuse. Secondary characters with smart mouths
and interesting abilities boost the high-octane entertainment.

family is the one you choose.”– Bookpage on Breaking Badger

my life can I be more like the honey badgers...Among my favorite

Review on Hot and Badgered
“Shelly Laurenston’s world of shape-shifters is hilarious, sexy,
often casually violent and always absolutely fascinating...The plot
zips along with surprising twists, turns and fearless honey badger
bravery. The non-stop action also allows for excellent character
development and lots of snarky humor is a testament to Laurenston’s
skills.” —Bookpage on Hot and Badgered
“For all the joyful zaniness of her characters, Laurenston can also
cover some heavy topics amid the hilarity and action. Mental health
issues are addressed as Stevie works toward self-acceptance with
the love and support of her sisters and Shen.” —The Philadelphia
Inquirer on In a Badger Way

mayhem…Laurenston makes me laugh out loud. She has been known to

expect...Filled with familiar faces and more than a few kooky,
delightful surprises, the plot neatly ties up loose ends while
dangling tantalizing promises of things to come. Series readers
will gobble this up.” —Publishers Weekly on Badger to the Bone
“Shelly Laurenston’s shifter books are full of oddball characters,
strong females with attitude and dialogue that can have you
laughing out loud.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer
