Thief of Magic (Shadowed Minds Book 1) by Bree Moore – Review by Amber Poole
Thief of Magic by Bree Moore
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Overall I enjoyed this book. The plot was interesting. An otherworldly force crashes to earth and infects people with abilities. These abilities had its perks but it comes with a price. There are different abilities. As with everything the government doesn’t like it’s people having more power than it. It supposedly seeks to understand it. But they have ulterior motives.
An morally conscious FBI agent, who follows laws to a T. Goes undercover to infiltrate a crew of these affected people. He has his own reasons for doing so. His target, a woman who doesn’t even want her powers, Lee, is fighting for her life and future. Her ability puts an early death sentence on her head and all she’s looking for is a cure. Everyone has secrets. Everyone has their own personal mission. Can anyone trust those around them? While the characters are navigating personal issues, Lee is contacted and charged with their biggest heist yet. Can she convince her crew to help? Is the payout worth the cost?
The story kept me invested. I finished it pretty quickly. Definitely a page turner. I thought the story was quite creative and original. The characters were enjoyable. You love some of them and you hate others. The only issue I had was that there was a point where an important character kinda disappears. And the other characters seem hardly affected by it at all. I guess it kinda insinuated he was leaving but it felt more like a blowing off steam type of leave rather than a permanent leave. It just didn’t plot well to me. Other than that it was great. I look forward to reading more from this author.
I’d recommend this book to anyone who loves supernatural and/or fantasy novels.
