As a long time reader and fan of Richelle Mead, I've
learned that there is little that this author can't
accomplish. In the third book of the Bloodlines series,
Mead displays personal growth in her main protagonist,
Sydney Sage. As an Alchemist, Sydney has been taught how to
believe and how to behave. However, when her heart begins
to tell her otherwise, she undergoes an internal struggle
in deciding her own fate. Syndey has always been the
intelligent and logical one, but in THE INDIGO SPELL,
readers get a chance to see her in more action than ever
before. She also loosens up and indulges in some
recklessness that feels monumental to someone as previously
uptight as her.
The presence of Marcus Finch, a former Alchemist who
severed his ties with the group and is now on the run,
presents a temptation that lures Sydney in. He persuades
her to rebel against the people who raised her, but the
logical side of Sydney knows that nothing is quite so
simple as that. Meanwhile, there is a threat that is
targeting young witches and stealing their youth. It's up
to Sydney to stop it before more people die.
In addition to juggling those duties, Sydney has the
wonderful distraction in the form of a stylish, green-eyed
heartthrob who readers know and love. Their forbidden love
is addressed front and center and is possibly the best
thing about this book. Mead latches readers by their
collars and keeps them riveted until the last page.
The last few chapters of THE INDIGO SPELL really revs up
the engine and gives readers that final push. With stellar
plot twists and the perfect setup for the next book in the
series, The Fiery Heart, Mead has penned a story that is
addicting and unstoppable! THE INDIGO SPELL is the best
book of the series!
Sydney Sage is an Alchemist, one of a group of humans who
dabble in magic and serve to bridge the worlds of humans and
vampires. They protect vampire secrets—and human
lives.
In the aftermath of a forbidden moment
that rocked Sydney to her core, she finds herself struggling
to draw the line between her Alchemist teachings and what
her heart is urging her to do. Then she meets alluring,
rebellious Marcus Finch--a former Alchemist who escaped
against all odds, and is now on the run. Marcus wants to
teach Sydney the secrets he claims the Alchemists are hiding
from her. But as he pushes her to rebel against the people
who raised her, Sydney finds that breaking free is harder
than she thought. There is an old and mysterious magic
rooted deeply within her. And as she searches for an evil
magic user targeting powerful young witches, she realizes
that her only hope is to embrace her magical blood--or else
she might be next.
