For the long-time fans of the Kate Daniels series, although
the end is near,
there's still a lot to rejoice about in MAGIC BINDS. Kate
and her lover, Curran
are looking to tie the knot and makes things official.
However, things won't
go accordingly to plan that easily, especially when Kate's
father, Roland, has
kidnapped Saiman to use him for his own diabolical plan.
Much like the rest of the series, there's humor and action
in spades. The
balance of these two is likely what makes this series so
delicious and easy to
read. When it comes to Urban Fantasy, the Kate Daniels
series remains as
one of my favorites and I've found that the quality of
writing and plotting has
only improved with each book in the series. Despite many
readers' wishes
for more books, I think the series is definitely winding
down, but it's done in
a way that is entirely satisfying so I doubt readers will be
too upset about the
approaching end. I can't help but mention that there are
many characters
who I'm sure readers would love to read a spin-off about
but before we start
demanding that, I think it's good to bask in the loveliness
that is MAGIC
BINDS because it really is a perfect endgame for these
characters as the
series winds down. You definitely feel like despite
everything that has
happened to them throughout this series, Kate and Curran are
truly at peace
with their relationship.
If you haven't read this series and are looking to try it,
I would highly suggest
starting it from the beginning. As the mentioned, each book
improves on the
previous one, making it a gem in the Urban Fantasy genre.
With Kate and
Curran, you are guaranteed a good read!
