Yes, it is but it really does not follow the story line of the book. The only direct connection that is really accurate are the character names. The books are worth reading, but are far from amazing. My personal suggestion for the Romantic Fantasy genre would be L.J. McDonald.
Suggested Authors...
Both TV shows suck.
Twilight is a book that to me is incredibly boring and predictable, hence bad.
Charlaine Harris is a decent writer and I enjoy her books.
Pattinson looks like a pug someone spilled powder on.
Stewart is a druggie who cant act worth a darn.
Paquin is ok, not Sookie though...
