Review of book Cursed (Keri Arthur) / Kingdoms of Earth & Air Series 2

Review of book Cursed (Keri Arthur) / Kingdoms of Earth & Air Series 2

Medium rating of Cursed (Keri Arthur): 6.8 Stars

Opinion of Cursed (Keri Arthur): Entertaining as the first book, it is set in the same world but with different characters although the threat remains the same. Air magic, earth magic, magic, soldier, ancient enemy, discover powers, invasion, magic sword, true heir, Warlord, romance, slave, crown heir, stolen throne, mistreatment. Entertaining to read.

Whomsoever draws the sword from the ancient seat of this land shall rule it, and they shall bring peace and prosperity to its people. For nearly a thousand years, the first born son of every Cannamore King has drawn the sword, and the land and her people have indeed prospered. Princess Nyx Bel-Hannon is neither male nor first born, but it is her hand that draws the sword rather than her twin brother’s. As a reward, she is given a prison rather than a throne. But a deep darkness now spreads across the Kingdom, and her borders are threatened by creatures capable of magic powerful enough to destroy mountains or split the land asunder. Without the true heir to wield the sword, Cannamore risks annihilation. The King and crown prince want nothing more than to be permanently rid of Nyx, but cannot afford her blood on their hands. Instead, they give her to a highland warlord in the hope he will do what they dare not.Nyx has no intention of letting the highlander get in the way of her thirst for revenge or the need to reclaim her throne. But it’s a quest that may well destroy the kingdom she loves.Because Nyx has been cursed by the god of war. It is her destiny to save Cannamore. Or utterly destroy it.

It’s not a bad story. The action is pretty good. However, I didn’t really like the characters. Nyx isn’t a bad character. She’s isn’t prissy and has had a hard life. Her father and brother made things very difficult for her. I don’t know what it was that she didn’t..

Review of Claimed By Shadow  (Karen Chance) / Cassandra Palmer 2:

Medium rating of Claimed By Shadow  (Karen Chance): 6.8Stars

Opinion of Claimed By Shadow  (Karen Chance): The book series continues to be entertaining. Vampires, seer, vampire politics, sorceres, vampire senate, dark mages, satyrs, witches, fae, spirits, try to survive, mafia vampires, travel to the past, discover powers, court intrigues, struggles for power, communicate with spirits, geis.. I think it's worth buying



Clairvoyant Cassie Palmer has inherited new magical powers including the ability to travel through time. But it's a whole lot of responsibility she'd rather not have. Now she's the most popular girl in town, as an assortment of vamps, fey, and mages try to convince, force, or seduce her and her magic over to their side. But one particular master vampire didn't ask what Cassie wanted before putting a claim on her. He had a spell cast that binds her to him, and now she doesn't know if what she feels for him is real or imagined…

Karen's writing is fun and non-stop action. It's an exhilerating ride, with fascinating detail of history and forethought for the plot. Where you read something in book one, expect to have those

Claimed By Shadow (Cassandra Palmer, #2) - Smashbomb

One of my reading groups thinks Mircea is a selfish, controlling vampire. But after reading Claimed by Shadow, I have to vehemently disagree. Yeah, he put the geis on Cassie for selfish reasons, but when everything goes wrong, he’s doing his best to help her escape the Consul and do what she needs to do. Even..

 Claimed by Shadow starts right after book one with Cassie fighting her newly inherited Pythia powers while trying to avoid dying at the hands of the magical community, all of which are more than eager to get their hands on a little extra magic mojo. After escaping the “all-powerful” senate (with a few…special objects in hand), Cassie begins planning to..

Claimed by Shadow is the second novel in the Cassandra Palmer series, but honestly it doesn't feel like any time has passed between one and two. Cassie is still dealing with a whole mess of problems – something she seems to have a talent for attracting. And she's learning that her situation is even more…..

Although the action in the book is often confusing, it is also very fast paced.  Cassie goes hurtling through time and dangerous situations at a heart racing pace. The battle scenes are absolutely vivid and force you to root for..

Review of book The Traitor's Kiss (Erin Beaty) / The Traitor's Circle Series 1

Medium rating of The Traitor's Kiss (Erin Beaty): 8 Stars

Opinion of The Traitor's Kiss (Erin Beaty): The beginning of a good series of fantastic books of soldiers, damsels, political intrigues, threat of war, betrayals, Military escort.. Advisable for purchase

An obstinate girl who will not be married. A soldier desperate to prove himself. A kingdom on the brink of war. With a sharp tongue and an unruly temper, Sage Fowler is not what they’d call a lady which is perfectly fine with her. Deemed unfit for marriage, Sage is apprenticed to a matchmaker and tasked with wrangling other young ladies to be married off for political alliances. She spies on the girls and on the soldiers escorting them. As the girls' military escort senses a political uprising, Sage is recruited by a handsome soldier to infiltrate the enemy ranks. The more she discovers as a spy, the less certain she becomes about whom to trust and Sage becomes caught in a dangerous balancing act that will determine the fate of her kingdom.

Medium rating of Unlit (Keri Arthur): 6.8 Stars

Opinion of Unlit (Keri Arthur): Entertaining, it reads well, the beginning of a new series of fantasy books to read. The protagonist is tough as a stone. Air magic, earth magic, soldier, treachery, court intrigues, ancient enemy, discover powers, survival, invasion..

Winterborne has long been a city divided between those who have magic, and those who do not. Between those who are free, and those who are not… Though classified as having no magic, Neve March can hear the whispers of the wind and sometimes even control her. But it’s a secret she must hold close if she wishes to continue as Nightwatch the soldiers who guard Winterborne against those who roam the wastelands and feast on human flesh. When Neve is sent to investigate a faint SOS signal, she not only unearths a woman close to death, but a plot involving an ancient enemy long thought dead. In an effort to expose those behind the plot, Neve goes undercover amongst Winterborne’s elite a dangerous step that could expose her secret and rip away all that she holds dear. The trail of treachery leads her from Winterborne’s golden halls to the heart of the enemy’s hive, and it will shake her belief of not only who she is, but what she is
