After the rollercoaster ride of action and emotions of the
last book in the series, Ilona Andrews doesn't waste any
time diving into the seventh book in the Kate Daniels
series
with MAGIC BREAKS.
Kate Daniels and her mate, the Beast Lord aka Curran are
considered one of the top couples in the Urban Fantasy genre
because of their ability to play off each other's strength
and work as a cohesive unit. However, what will happen if
they are separated? Will they be able to survive on their
own while still being able to protect their Pack from
danger?
MAGIC BREAKS addresses these questions in an unsympathetic
way. Andrews definitely doesn't pull any punches in this
action-packed follow up that once again puts Kate and Hugh
against each other once again. With Curran gone, Kate must
stand in as the leader while trouble comes at her in all
directions.
In this particular instalment, readers are reminded of what
makes Kate Daniels such an amazing heroine. We see her
leadership skills and her logical thinking. We see her
ruthless ways but also her tender heart. And we see her gain
the respect from the Pack. Kate Daniels really is one of the
most complex, well- developed heroines in the genre.
MAGIC BREAKS wouldn't have been as interesting if it weren't
for Hugh D'Ambray. Hugh is a special kind of villain. He's
good-looking, charming but still a psychopath and while he
goads Kate a lot, I just adore the reactions he gets out of
her. The fact that they cross paths so much in this book
makes things so much more exciting and thrilling because it
feels more personal now. The emotions involved will only get
more intense from here.
There is really no one else that compares to Ilona Andrews'
storytelling abilities. They are truly in a league of their
own.
No matter how much the paranormal politics of Atlanta
change, one thing always remains the same: if there’s
trouble, Kate Daniels will be in the middle of it…
As the mate of the Beast Lord, Curran, former mercenary Kate
Daniels has more responsibilities than it seems possible to
juggle. Not only is she still struggling to keep her
investigative business afloat, she must now deal with the
affairs of the pack, including preparing her people for
attack from Roland, a cruel ancient being with god-like
powers. Since Kate’s connection to Roland has come out into
the open, no one is safe—especially those closest to Kate.
As Roland’s long shadow looms ever nearer, Kate is called to
attend the Conclave, a gathering of the leaders from the
various supernatural factions in Atlanta. When one of the
Masters of the Dead is found murdered there, apparently at
the hands of a shapeshifter, Kate is given only twenty-four
hours to hunt down the killer. And this time, if she fails,
she’ll find herself embroiled in a war which could destroy
everything she holds dear…
