Fate’s Edge is the third book of The Edge series by Ilona Andrews. Kaldar Mar, cousin to Cerise from the previous book, is recruited by Lady Virai to retrieve a magical artifact stolen impossibly stolen from a literal Fort Knox type pyramid. If not retrieved, The Hand (bad guys) would have a devastating tool to wreak havoc in the Weird, Broken and Edge. Kaldar is a con man who loves a dangerous and challenging mission. That is his power – if you bet him to do […]
Romancing the Stone with immortal beings
After a brief respite, I dove back into the Immortals After Dark series with No Rest for the Wicked. Much to my surprise, it had a very realistic (as it could be) romance between the paired supernaturals. Sebastian Wroth has retreated from the world to a dusty Russian castle so disgusted with his vampire existence. He was forcibly turned by his brothers and never forgiven them for it – or himself. He hides in a cave and hungers for death. However, fate issn’t done with him and brings […]
Werewolves are a tad possessive
I enjoyed reading Mrs. Julien’s hilarious Kresley Cole book reviews during previous cannonball reads. I read Shadows Claim last year when it was a Vaginal Fantasy pick, but didn’t really get fully hooked. So when I was in The Ripped Bodice, I decided to tackle one of the first books in the series for my trip to Greece. A Hunger Like No Other follows Lachlain, a lykae (werewolf) Scottish warrior on a journey of love and revenge. The male kind of his species mate for life when first meeting said […]
A magical ice apocalypse in Dublin
After an epic five novels, Karen Marie Moning switches the narrator to Dani “Mega” O’Malley in Iced. The previous entries focused on MacKayla “Mac” Lane, new to all things magic and unknowingly gifted with magical powers to fight evil & SEXY AF fairy princes who want to destroy our world. These Unseelie princes nearly do by tearing a hole between their magical dimension and ours to let in all kinds of nasty monsters. During her battles against the apocalypse, Mac befriends a 13 year old girl named Dani […]
The one where Rachel goes on an ill-advised banshee hunt
It has taken me three years to circle back to the first book from The Hollows series I found at the library. I unwittingly checked out and read a page from White Witch, Black Curse before realizing it was the seventh in the series! The completist that I am returned it. I finally started with book one in 2014. I’m probably the only one spacing out this series over so many years. 😉 ****Major spoilers for previous books in the series to follow**** Rachel Morgan has been through the […]
Love in a magical swamp
I kicked off the year with Bayou Moon from Ilona Andrews’ The Edge series. This novel follows William, an ex-military changeling werewolf loner. He was a supporting character in the first book, On the Edge. William retired to The Edge, a liminal zone between the “Broken” (our world devoid of magic) and the “Weird” (a mirror earth dimension full of magic). In this reality, werewolves are either killed at birth or forced into the military. His forest cabin solitude is interrupted when two agents from The […]
