Shawnee's life is entirely normal-or so she'd like to believe. A doctor unknowingly working for an organization set out to destroy all werecreatures is average, isn't it? Is love enough to help Shawnee stop the evil from destroying her new family? When deadly and mysterious cases start appearing in the emergency room of Mercy General Hospital, Doctor Shawnee Twofeathers cannot continue to ignore it. While coming to terms with her own identity, Shawnee decides that it's up to her to stop the evil organization behind the incidences before they realize who she is and the werewolf company she is trying to protect. Can Shawnee single-handedly stop the demise of the innocent humans and werecreatures that she has come to love? Or will she need to rely on the pack she's learned to call family?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Max (she/her) grew up just outside of New York City, spending most of her formative years outdoors creating wild ghost hunts with neighborhood kids, setting booby-traps to capture unwitting family members, and building clubhouses on top of ten-foot walls. Max wrote her first story at the age of twelve and there began her romance with the world of fiction. Through the years, Max has written several short-stories and poems, all of which met the wrath of the “Not Good Enough” monster and ended in fiery demise.

Max regained her confidence when she began writing scholarly articles and research theses on her first trip through graduate school. It took several years for her to break the habit of the formal writing that marred her creativity. Max writes primarily LGBTQ+ sci-fi/fantasy, crime/thriller, and romance stories. Max describes her women-loving-women novels as "edgy romance and crime/thrillers about women rising from the ashes of their experiences and thriving in the context of love and relationships."

5.0 out of 5 stars All I can say is wow!
Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2013

Glyph is such a new and innovative take on werewolves and the paranormal. A friend of the author is one of my FB friends and she suggested this book to me. Shawnee is such a dark and shattered character in the beginning, however she drew me into her world. I liked all of the backstory you get for her, how it is revealed slowly layer by layer, and the intricacies of each relationship. The most enthralling aspect is seeing her change from being broken to becoming a whole person. The other characters are equally interesting and important not just there to take up space. I won't expound too much, I am not big on spoilers. Definitely worth reading and worth the price. Ok so one spoiler *there is light F/F action combined with very light male voyerism. I like knowing these things before purchasing a book. :)

4.0 out of 5 stars an interesting take on the genre
Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2023

Shawnee is a doctor at a hospital, seeing unusual cases coming in as part of the routine. But when her neighbour Xany starts involving herself in Shawnee's life, suddenly a lot more suddenly comes out into the open, and perhaps Shawnee isn't as unaware as it seems.

This is a rather interesting shifter story, and start to the series. There is more than just wolf shifters in this story, and it is an curious take on the genre. The characters are nice and likeable, and Shawnee is dealing with a lot. It is, though, a story of her coming to terms with it, healing, and growing. Vanessa, in particular, is rather adorable. The lore is good, the writing engaging, and it was an enjoyable read.

However, it is worth noting that, unlike the rest of Max Ellendale's books, the legacy series isn't sapphic. It has a FFM poly, and by the looks of it, it takes a number of books to fully mature. (The spin-off Wolf's Consort, though, is sapphic).

3.0 out of 5 stars I want to love it
Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2021

The book is entertaining enough. There are some holes in the story and many contradictions. I love that the main character is polyamorous. The depictions of ptsd from abuse are so realistic it was hard to read at times. However, I love that the author didn’t shy away from the not so nice character attributes. I will continue to read the story.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book was gripping!!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2012

This book was gripping. The characters were rich and the story line unique. I'm glad it's a series because I'm sure Xany and Shawnee will get into a lot of trouble together. The emotional components and the Ptsd of the main character seemed very realistic. Mix that with the subtle romance and set up for an interesting trio and you've got a hit."

"The writing was strong and the pace of this story really worked. It kept my attention straight through. I'm looking forward to more from this author"

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting, Intriguing and full of Action
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2012

Glyph is an exciting novel that keeps one turning pages. I love Shawnee's character along with her new and purrrfectly old friends. There is love. There is affection. There is intrigue and there is action. A potential love triangle is hinted at for future novels and the characters are portrayed as strong willed, yet sexy. I didn't want it to end, waiting for more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read this three times now and it still gets better!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 13, 2021

Traumatised Shawnee finds healing and shared love in a werewolf pack that values uniqueness and respects independence. One of the more interesting and engaging werewolf novels around. Lots of action sequences with clandestine activities and mad scientist on the loose. Polyamory and Two-spirit people take note. Lots of humour and strong characterisation as well. A quality read from an accomplished author. If you like this try Alsea series by Fletcher deLancey for sci-fi f/f and rainbows of sexuality for native American try Contrary Warriors trilogy by Sheryl Wright. Order pizza, pull up a fire and settle down with this one. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked from the beginning!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 7, 2019

I started reading this book because it was on my to read list - but other than that I didn’t know anything at all about it. It is a character based story which isn’t usually my cup of tea but I have to say I was hooked from the beginning and really struggled to put it down. It is very much a finding yourself story and whist a little dark at times is a beautiful story. I particular loved - and desperately craved - the romance aspect! Whilst it is the first book of a series it had a satisfying ending (not a pause like many series too) but I am also really looking forward to reading the next book!
