**I received this book for free
in exchange for an honest review.**
This is one of the most action
packed books I’ve read so far this summer, it was very much a fantastic read
all round. It had everything a good paranormal book should have, action, lots
of spooks and at least a little bit of a love story.
The main characters Colina and
Luke, Colina is a girl with a horrifying past, that leaves her very much alone
that is until she meets Luke and his sister Darla. They come together when
Colina comes looking for someone who can teach her a new kind of magic so she
can get revenge. Luke is a death dealer, who can help her get revenge he
reluctantly agrees when he faces family trouble. Luke is a strong male
character who means no show of hiding his feelings for Colina which in my
opinion is a real breath of fresh air. As Luke begins to teach Colina the magic
which he practices they are forced into the most unlikely situations bringing
them together in the greatest of ways.
There were only a very few
secondary characters and most of them were only present for a short period of time.
Like Darla, Luke’s sister or Freddy who comes together in the final battle to
help our duo kick ass.
The pacing was great offering
twists and turns and then an epic final battle ending in a way which left us
begging for more.
The story line was fantastically
original- when I used to imagine learning magic I think Harry Potter not
anymore. The dark and grizzly way this was portrayed has completely changed my
view. As well as the absolute brilliant ending which means I will be buying the
next one and the one after that, for as long as they are being written.
An absolutely brilliant book, I
will recommend it to everyone I know and everyone I meet. A very solid 4 star
rating.
