Welcome back Mac! We were last with Mac when she defeated the Sinsar Dubh, a book made of ancient evil and yet its hold is still with her never letting go. The wall between the Fae world and human world is down and Dublin, along with its people, are in a war for survival against the Seelie and Unseelie vying for power and ultimate control.

Mac's former protégé and best friend Dani is now her enemy, and now they are going head to head, and boy is Dani something else...or someone else. People Mac depended on are no longer there. Christian has been taken by the Crimson Hag, so putting away her doubts she must trust those who may very well betray her to save him. The only person she has left is the most dangerous of them all, the immortal Jericho Barrons. Can he really be trusted though? What is his true purpose with her? What does he really want? Has Mac been putting her faith, hope and trust in the wrong people? I won't spoil this but... Holy cow!

BURNED is lucky number 7 for this series and Karen Marie Moning is getting serious. Staying alive means breaking alliances, blurring lines and betraying those most important to Mac to save lives. Mac infuriates me but still manages to win my heart, make me chuckle at her banter and root for her in this war. She doesn't care what people think of her and does what she needs to do for the ultimate good.

Karen has also opened up more of the characters and given them back stories for future reading pleasure. I for one can't wait to see the new Dani brings and I hope she can get back something of the "Mega" we all have come to love. I love this world!
