A Derek and Julie adventure!

December 22, 2015 by Malin 1 Comment

This is a novella in the Kate Daniels universe. It’ll cost you less than two dollars on Amazon. I would, however, recommend that you read at least a few of the books in that series before reading this, although it would probably work relatively well on its own merits. This review may, however, contain spoilers for some of the later books in the series, so if you haven’t read up to and including Magic Breaks and preferably Magic Shifts as well, proceed at your own […]

Supernatural high school drama isn’t all that different from regular teen drama

December 9, 2015 by Malin Leave a Comment

Sophie Mercer is a witch and because of the various bad incidents her magic has gotten her mixed up in, she and her mum have moved a lot during her lifetime. After Sophie seriously misjudges the oomph of a love spell at her current high school’s prom, and there is a huge scene, Sophie’s normally absentee father, a European warlock of some kind, gets involved. Sophie is sent off to a boarding school. On a remote island, where she will stay until she graduates at […]

“Answer me this, did you hesitate at all or did you see the giant, go ‘Wheee!’ and run toward it?”

September 6, 2015 by Malin 1 Comment

4.5 stars Spoiler warning! This is book 8 in the series, and some really big stuff happened in the last book. Seriously, if you haven’t read Magic Breaks yet, there will be spoilers, so return once you’re caught up. If you haven’t read any Ilona Andrews books yet, you should do your very best to change that as soon as possible. They write among the best paranormal books out there, you won’t be sorry. After a period of adjustment after the confrontation in the previous […]

I almost forgot how to book review

June 22, 2015 by alwaysanswerb Leave a Comment

Okay, I read this over a month ago and my brain has been so completely in another place since then. Obsolete reviews are fun! Let’s do this, with a generous assist from Goodreads: “The Edge lies between worlds, on the border between the Broken, where people shop at Walmart and magic is a fairytale–and the Weird, where blueblood aristocrats rule, changelings roam, and the strength of your magic can change your destiny… Cerise Mar and her unruly clan are cash poor but land rich, claiming […]

None of the visions seemed particularly silvery to me, actually

March 14, 2015 by Malin 6 Comments

This is book three in The Others series, which is one of my absolute favourite paranormal fantasy series at the moment. While you are given enough information to start with this one, you’ll get the most enjoyment if you start at the beginning, with the excellent Written in Red. There will also be minor spoilers for the earlier books in the series here, so if you don’t like that sort of thing, skip the review until you’re caught up. In a world where humans are […]

Supernatural Fight Club

December 29, 2014 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

Magic Strikes has Kate Daniels working another case involving Atlanta’s shapeshifter community (aka The Pack). She arrives on the scene of a double shapeshifter homicide. She sees her friend and sometime partner, Jim, who abruptly takes her off the case citing Pack business. Essentially, telling her to stay the f*@k out of it. Kate obviously finds this a bit rude, but hey now she gets to go home early. Later that night, she is forced to bail Derek, a werewolf pal, out of a sticky situation with Saiman, a rich […]
