Magic Shifts once again shows
that the husband and wife writing team known as Ilona Andrews are
tops in the urban fantasy genre. In this eighth book in their magic
series we are once again taken
to the post-shift city of Atlanta. Once there we enter the world of
Kate Daniels where shapeshifters, necromancers, mythical beings and
magic users of all kinds are real. Not long after we first enter the
city to join Kate and fiancee Curran as fight new foes while trying
locate a missing shapeshifter.
In this book we are re-acquainted some
of our favorite characters in Curran Lennart, the former leader of
the shapeshifters; former mercenary, liaison for the order and now
Curran's mate; Andrea Nash, Kate's best friend, former knight of the
order and now Alpha of the Bouda clan at the keep: and Roland, Kate's
father.
Gordon and Ilona Andrews do an
excellent job of keeping us on the edge of our seats with plot twist
and added complication. Just when we think we know how one situation
will end and we can let out our breath something else into the mix to
once again cause us to take a deep breath and hold it again. One good
example is when Curran, the beast lord, arrives to rescue Kate from
the prison where she has been transported. Just when we think they
are safe an will make it out new challenge arrive to hinder their
escape.
I
would highly recommend this book to anyone that has read the previous
books in the series, likes adventure, the supernatural, mythology or
just a good read that will whisk you away in hours of enjoyment.
