Ilona Andrews has penned the best book in the Kate
Daniels
series to date with MAGIC RISES. Mercenary, Kate Daniels
and her mate, Curran aka the Beast Lord are faced with a
crisis that is taking the lives of the Pack's beloved
shapeshifting children. Their small bodies are unable to
control their beast sides, resulting in tragic deaths. They
learn that there is a medicine that can help them. However,
it lies heavily guarded in the European packs far away from
their home. In a desperate attempt to save their Pack's
children, Kate and her crew stride headstrong into danger
that will only get more challenging as the days go on.
Politics and the threat of war is a constant throughout the
book. Yet Kate and Curran will experience something that
will shake the very ground they stand on and test their
loyalty to one another. In the most heartbreakingly
emotional storyline that Andrews has adapted in the series,
MAGIC RISES will have you laughing out loud at some of the
antics while also tearing your heart out with its losses.
Kate Daniels has been my top favorite heroine for a long
time. However, in this latest installment, we see a much
more vulnerable side to her. We see her emotions written
plainly across her face. We see the hurt she is trying to
hide and we see the depth of her love for Curran. Detailed
worldbuilding is often what fans go for when reading an
Ilona Andrews book, but after reading this, they will see
their talents in creating multidimensional characters as
well.
Say goodbye to sleep because you won't feel the need for it
when you have this hot little number in your hands. An all-
nighter material, MAGIC RISES has blazing hot action, heart-
stopping emotion, and quick wit banter all in one delicious
package. If there is one author that defines Urban Fantasy,
it is Ilona Andrews.
Atlanta is a city plagued by magical problems. Kate Daniels
will fight to solve them—no matter the cost.
Mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate, Curran, the Beast Lord,
are struggling to solve a heartbreaking crisis. Unable to
control their beasts, many of the Pack’s shapeshifting
children fail to survive to adulthood. While there is a
medicine that can help, the secret to its making is closely
guarded by the European packs, and there’s little available
in Atlanta.
Kate can’t bear to watch innocents suffer, but the solution
she and Curran have found threatens to be even more painful.
The European shapeshifters who once outmaneuvered the Beast
Lord have asked him to arbitrate a dispute—and they’ll pay
him in medicine. With the young people’s survival and the
Pack’s future at stake, Kate and Curran know they must
accept the offer—but they have little doubt that they’re
heading straight into a trap…
Excellent review. I can't wait to read it! I mean, I already wanted to read it, but now I REALLY want to read it, so thanks a lot! (she said, a little sarcastically, because I still have to wait when I want to read it NOW!) (Roswita Hildebrandt 11:23am June 17, 2013)
They are always on my auto buy list and one of the few authors that has a permanent spot on my bookshelf. (Judith Cauthan 1:05am June 18, 2013)
