After stepping down as the Beast Lord and Consort, Kate and Curran are
trying to live their lives a little more under the radar. Kate is hoping her
biggest problem is managing Julie but if you know anything about this world,
it's that nothing is ever that easy.
When a disappearance is reported, Kate and Curran find themselves back in
action. Kate also finds herself getting involved with the Mercenary Guild and
their politics. Everyone is experiencing a setback and nothing is running as
smoothly as it should be so naturally Andrews further explores that in MAGIC
SHIFTS. You'll see a lot of the easy banter between characters and the same
high level of action we expect in the books. As they merge several different
mythologies, as a reader, you are never getting anything you've ever seen
before. It's always new and exciting creatures, which isn't necessarily a
good thing for Kate but she seems to be managing herself well.
After the hell ride of the previous books, MAGIC SHIFTS seems a little
more mellow in the first half. It takes its time exploring a bit of what daily life
with Kate and Curran is when they aren't immersed in blood and gore. But then
it zooms forward with action, suspense, and plenty of intrigue to keep
readers on the edge of their seats. There is no question that Ilona and
Andrew are excellent storytellers and with their strong authorial voices. I
don't think the Kate Daniels series will ever show signs of stopping.
In the latest Kate Daniels novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Ilona Andrews, magic is coming and going in waves in post-Shift Atlanta—and each crest leaves danger in its wake… After breaking from life with the Pack, mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate—former Beast Lord Curran Lennart—are adjusting to a very different pace. While they’re thrilled to escape all the infighting, Kate and Curran know that separating from the Pack completely is a process that will take time. But when they learn that their friend Eduardo has gone missing, Kate and Curran shift their focus to investigate his disappearance. Eduardo was a fellow member of the Mercenary Guild, so Kate knows the best place to start looking is his most recent jobs. As Kate and Curran dig further into the merc’s business, they discover that the Guild has gone to hell and that Eduardo’s assignments are connected in the most sinister way… An ancient enemy has arisen, and Kate and Curran are the only ones who can stop it—before it takes their city apart piece by piece.
