Death and the Crone: Book Three of the Lucky Devil Series by Megan Mackie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Death and the Crone: Book Three of the Lucky Devil Series by Megan Mackie. I really enjoyed the first two books in this series and was so excited to see Elias get his story. The characters are well developed and the story idea was intriguing but for me, it did not hold the promise I expected it to be. I wanted more, something a little more explosive, a little more of the story reaching out and really gripping me and making me part of the story.

Margaret is a grumpy and grouchy old woman and I know she had a tough life but I could not fully engage with her. I did feel for her and the evil that had attached to her and created such a sad soul.

Elias going after a much older woman makes you wonder what is going on but as the story continues you understand what he has always seen in Margaret and what she becomes.

Even though I had higher expectations does not mean the story was not well written and a good story. I know that anyone that enjoys fantasy and a little mystic and magic
will enjoy it.

3.5 stars
