"The exciting story line never slows down especially when the quest begins."
The explosion shattered the Bedrock; everyone
considered
it destroyed until it transmits a telepathic message to
Adept Diana to send for a healer. Everyone agrees that
something must be done to restore the balance by saving
the
key source of magick and protection for this
stronghold. The selection of who will perform the task seems odd.
Failed Healer Sulis believes she is too inept to do the
job
needed to help the injured Bedrock. She will be
accompanied by Mage Llyr, selected because he knows first
hand the Bedrock; he has his own demons of remorse as his
soulmate died in the explosion that he survived. The unlikely duo begins their trek, but enemies want to
finish the destruction of the Bedrock in order to bring
chaos to the land and will try to kill the healer and the
mage to accomplish their agenda. Unless this pair can
bond, they will fail. As they struggle to survive,
bonding
forms when love flows between these two walking wounded
souls if both take a chance on the other. The "Magick" romantic fantasy series is some of the
best
tales on the market today. The current novel, HEALING
MAGICK, is a wonderful work that sub-genre readers will
enjoy as a stand alone or with its predecessors (see
MAGICK
and MORE THAN MAGICK). The exciting story line never
slows
down especially when the quest begins. However, the key
to
a Mary Taffs' tale is the cast and this one contains
terrific protagonists struggling with their previous
failures and a delightful secondary group including their
superiors and their antagonists; all who make for a fine
rounded tale that fantasy and romance readers will
cherish. Harriet Klausner
