After the earth-shattering events of the last book in the
Fever series, Karen
Marie Moning returns with another gripping novel. In
FEVERBORN, the world
is in danger as inexplicable black holes are appearing all
around Dublin.
In addition to that, Mac is being hunted by humans. As you
can probably
guess, this isn't a series to read as a standalone or out
of order. Each book
builds on the previous, and if you read closely enough, KMM
expertly plants
clues, foreshadowing interesting events to come.
While there are multiple POVs scattered throughout, the
majority of the book
is from Mac's POV. MacKayla Lane's character has undergone
tremendous
growth from the beginning of the series. Not many can
survive what she has
and still come out on top. Similarly, not many women can go
toe-to-toe with
Jericho Barrons. For all the fans who have been waiting to
see the romance
between Mac and Barrons bloom, KMM delivers in this one.
For a change,
we get a rare glimpse of the softer side of Barrons, and
it's absolutely
addicting.
Jada's character surprised me in this one. No longer the
stoic warrior, we
finally see some vulnerability from her, which in turn,
creates a far more
likeable character. By the end of the book, my heart was
absolutely breaking
for her.
Last but not least, I know readers are most interested in
the romance.
Although a strictly Urban Fantasy series, KMM infuses each
page with
forbidden lust and fiery passion. Some developments are
made, but I feel
like the emphasis is still on Jada and what happened to her
in the five years
she was gone. Readers will have to stick around to find out
how exactly
these beloved characters will survive and who they will end
up with.
As always, I was glued to the pages of this book. KMM
continues to enchant
and thrill readers with her fearless risk-taking and
seductive world. There's a
reason why Karen Marie Moning is my favorite
author—Urban Fantasy simply
doesn't get any better than this!
In Karen Marie Moning’s latest installment of the epic #1
New York Times bestselling Fever series, Mac,
Barrons, Ryodan, and Jada are back—and the stakes have never
been higher or the chemistry hotter. Hurtling us into a
realm of labyrinthine intrigue and consummate seduction,
Feverborn is a riveting tale of ancient evil, lust,
betrayal, forgiveness, and the redemptive power of love.
When the immortal Fae destroyed the ancient wall dividing
the worlds of Man and Faery, the very fabric of the universe
was damaged, and now Earth is vanishing bit by bit. Only the
long-lost Song of Making—a haunting, dangerous melody that
is the source of life itself—can save the planet.
But those who seek the mythic song must contend with old
wounds and new enemies, passions that burn hot and hunger
for vengeance that runs deep. The challenges are many: the
Keltar at war with nine immortals who’ve secretly ruled
Dublin for eons, Mac and Jada hunted by the masses, the
Seelie queen nowhere to be found, and the most powerful
Unseelie prince in all creation determined to rule both Fae
and Man. Now the task of solving the ancient riddle of the
Song of Making falls to a band of deadly warriors divided
among—and within—themselves.
Once a normal city possessing a touch of ancient magic,
Dublin is now a treacherously magical city with only a touch
of normal. And on those war-torn streets, Mac will come
face-to-face with her most savage enemy yet: herself.
