"The magic in this series practically jumps out of the pages"
Allie Beckstrom is a Hound. A person who can track illegal
spells back to the people who cast them. There is always a
price to pay for using magic and in Allie's case the price
is headaches, aches, pains and memory loss. Nobody ever
said using magic was easy but things are about to get real
dangerous. There is a storm approaching Portland and when it hits, all
the magic in the area will go haywire. There is no way to
stop the magical front but there are ways to stop it from
taking out the whole city. Allie and her lover, Zayvion
Jones, have to help fight against what the storm may bring.
However they both know that the price on the amount of
magic they use could be much higher than it usually is. Magic on the Storm is book number four in the Allie
Beckstrom series. Just when I thought things couldn't get
harder for Allie, they do. Actually so many things happen
in this newest installment that would make any other grown
woman just give up. Not Allie. She keeps fighting and doing
what she needs to do, right to the very cliffhanger end. I really like Allie and have since the very beginning of
this series. Actually all the good guys in these books are
starting to really grow on me and I can't wait to meet up
with them again. However the plot really does it for me.
Twists, turns and surprises come from all over the place
and it makes for a thrilling read. This is near perfect
Urban Fantasy. The magic in this series practically jumps out of the
pages. Different, unusual and nothing like you have ever
read before, this book and the rest of the series certainly
makes an impact. Where the series will go next is clear
from the cliffhanger ending (but I won't spoil things for
you) but what will happen there is something we will have
to wait till November to find out.
